I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

I think Standto had it right as a simple pointer to the Sky News item although it had been in the papers yesterday IIRC and was thus old news.

However the issue of collective responsibility is possibly worthy of discussion.

I can think of at least 4 instance, three where I was on the crew, where the Auth, also on board, had either condoned or instigated flying indiscipline or done nothing to counter it. The Auths were 3 sqn ldrs (one was the captain) and one was the sqn cdr but not acting as captain. In only one of the cases did we stop the captain (auth) from his course of action.

These were all before CRM was born.
