And whilst we all remember the travesty of justice that the CDG Concorde blame game was, perhaps this is an opportunity to (a) Teach the french a hard lesson, or (b) Show them how justice is best served?
Sort of correct as the Continental maintenance error would have been subject to a massive fine if FAA had found it so no suprise that a foreign juristiction took action after it was involved in multiple fatalities.
I like your clarity of thoughts and recommendations
as it points the way to prevention rather than joining in the "blame game" , well almost, except for the last paragraph
Justice is not about blame its about accountability
