While I fully agree that a safety culture is about finding causes and preventing recurrence and not about apportioning blame, some people seem to think this culture still exists. It was a hard earned culture that did well for a couple of decades, but it is long dead. MBA managers with no experience in the front lines of aviation and greedy investors saw to it that crews and engineers are blamed for everything so that company policies, procedures and equipment get off the hook, and is seems to me that authorities and often investigators are complicit as otherwise they would face questions over why they didn't perform their regulating role properly. Cash is king, and the minions are the scape goats.
