Yes, msbbarratt, I believe you. Perhaps by the time it comes for me to give the game away it will be better if I just stay home.

Perhaps it is a 21st century thing, not just an aviation thing. I was asking my wife just the other day 'when did near enough became good enough'. The quest for the almighty dollar seems to have become the mantra of these times & everything else is of secondary or no importance.

Management has a large responsibility here as well. It's not all the responsibility of the guy on the street. Like kids, they will follow the example of those above them, particularly if the rewards are perceived as being so great.

Anyway, perhaps that is enough philosophy for now.
