RAT 5,
I am an SLF with a bad cold so you and all the others please feel free to ignore me.
May I argue that the Turkish crew, the KLM in Teneriffe crew, and the Callie crew as well as the captain of Helios all share a common dedication to hierarchy. In the first three cases the FO dared not to talk back or argue to their respective captain and in the Helios case the captain did the talking with his company's maintenance dept instead of letting his FO to discuss the matter in their native tongue. I think this is clearly stated on the report.
No regarding the specific issue most of us would agree that the crew did mis-interpret the warning after having various times failed to set correctly the pressurization controller. PAX on that flight did pay to have a crew correctly trained to operate the flight. Instead they died because the crew failed on this role. Why should the relatives of the crew don't seek a settlement against the airline for failing to meet a basic obligation?
