Post make a mistake....YOUR OUT

I dont really know why i am bringing this up but then again i see it as a good question too ask. now i have just read 2 threads on news and one was of todays delta plane going off the runway at DUB on landing and the other from last year where a flight diverted to azores on emergency landing.

now on both of these some people have said the crew will get penalised in some sort of form or another for the incident. now what i dont understand for eg with the delta airlines how can it be the crews fault if they did everything in there power to land and landed safely to be blamed.

i mean was it there fault the weather conditions were bad..or can the company have you flung out for this...whats the poiciies of airlines with this sort of thing anyone have any views/opinions..stories to tell????

i am new to this, so appreciate some feedback.

ps the worse one i just read is someone said a crew got sacked for blowing out some of the runway lights on landing but were reinstated a few hours later.....hmmmm????
