OH Hell Yes.....By all means let's point fingers!
When a couple of guys falsify documentation to obtain contracts and later those material falsifications lead to fatal accidents...then by all means lets point our fingers at them. What's more, even if they do not wind up in Federal Prison for their felonious conduct....let's run them out the industry for good.
Here is the NTSB Accident Report.

Note the explanation about how the empty weights were falsified and also how the bogus performance charts were created. The fact the USFS failed to catch the understatement until the NTSB pointed it out to them is also indicative of how they do their business in the contracting office. There are some bureaucrats in the office that need removing but then they are all good civil servants.
The USFS Check Pilots I have dealt with have all been professional and knowledgeable in their work and to the Man were very pleasant to deal with.
The lying scoundrels not only lied to the Forest Service but worse they lied to their own Pilots and the passengers they carried.
When people burn to death as a result of your actions....you deserve no mercy.
