Looking at the past history of the FAA in responding to NTSB recommendations, I believe the chances of the FAA accepting these is very close to zero. As regards the motives of operators, I think you're a little broad there, MamboBaas. The motive is not just profit, but short-range profit. Few look at next year, much less next quarter. They take the money & run now, & next year will take care of itself, if they're still in business.
