My PC was left running with this page open. Curious neighbour, a professional, but not in aviation asks if she can read it. Some 15 minutes later a succinct summation. "It looks like no damage occurred except for some bruised egos who are afraid the mystery may be dispelled."
Sounds like you neighbour is involved in a profession where rules & regulations are something to negotiated over & don't apply to those with deep pockets. Care to say what it is?
