So much for a safe culture, a just culture.
The issue is not about the incident, cause, contribution, or outcome, but the underlying attitude and management process leading to a CM.
If the Capt's statements were as described, perhaps consideration of why this was so would help the management get to grips with any latent problems. Is it necessary to punish the lack of 'officer and gentleman' qualities as an example to others, or just in order to maintain or improve standards. If the situation is that poor then beware the decline in both safety and behaviour.
But there again it's much easier to blame the sharp end then reconsider the higher level policies which could have influenced behaviour.
Having suffered a double engine bird strike, where thanks to RR they continued to work until landing, the investigation found that due to the cost of replacement the incident was a major accident. Thus this officers record should be marked as having such an event.
The 'boss' said that he would not be doing that, and wrote a stiff letter to those who thought otherwise.
Do we still have this type of leadership or have the current senior positions been achieved via adapted 'officer and gentleman' behaviour, by either not saying anything or not being found out.
