Mr Pirate, your statements are based on what experience ?
Perhaps the CAA press release issued the same night as the incident saying the pilots took the wrong taxiway.

Yes, it is factually correct, but it also implies that all the blame lies with the crew and that there were no mitigating factors.

There is also the fact that most senior officials in this country, from the top elected office bearers all the way through to the lowest echelons of the civil service, have been implicated in corruption charges at some time or other.

Pirate and Capetonian are right, I'm afraid. Too many vested interests to allow mere facts to get in the way.
