The only thing of interest is how to avoid such mistakes.
Thank you Frosch. Unfortunately some of our dinosaur colleagues can not understand what a "just culture" is all about and we'll have to bang it into their thick skulls time and time again.

Dinosaur speak:

KLM pilots got away as if nothing ever happened ... Worrying behaviour by the Dutch. However you want to defend it, they would have been reprimanded in other countries.
Firstly this a pretty ignorant comment. May I suggest that a lot more than 'nothing' happened. If relevant, appropriate retraining and checking would have carried out and if there was something to be learnt as an industry, that would be released by KLM in an appropriate fashion. But the deal for this to take place is that the crew say what happened and how, as far as they are able.

But let's move on. Imagine Soullimbo is party to an "interesting" incident which was NOT the result of criminal intent or negligence. Judging by the tone of his post, there would be need for the facts to be discussed, because they would not be relevant. Just because he was there he must be guilty. So after we have ripped up his licence, should we lock him up for a few years or would a fine be more appropriate?
