UFO, if we were judged by pilots in the court, then fair enough. But we have enthusiastic amateurs who are only out to blame someone and get money. It'd pretty easy for some blood-sucking lawyer to convince a jury that a pilot screwed up.
Everything i say and do in my job is recorded and can be used in a court of law, yet i dont have hundreds of peoples lives in my hands.
So what? Just because it happens to you doesn't mean it should apply to others.
