Previous quote: "The most impartial review of 135 accidents easily available is Wikki (and doesn't that say a whole lot about where we're at?) With engine and tail separations alone a noted feature, you seem to demand a lot of your pilots and little of their superiors. Self Regulation Doesn't Work and in Aviation It Kills!'

I mentioned only RCs, where I am familiar with all accidents. Only the Rivet Amber could possibly be attributed to not implementing a required upgrade.
I know of no situation where the USAF does not take responsibility. The comment about "Self regulation" is confusing. Who would take responsibility for a military aviation incident? In the US NTSB is not involved in military accidents.
