I agree with Dropp that there is some facets of the system that are helpful and what Trader mentions about common sense, however that will never be allowed here and they will continue to proceeduralize the pilots out of the cockpit because of their own inadequacies in hiring and training. Its too big to change now.

RAAS won't even be a contributory cause because the company was big in helping with its development....to say otherwise would be an admission of a mistake from their perspective. Also, there is no environment of fear as "we have a non-punitive safety reporting culture" (hard to get that one out...)

But it would appear the pilots will eat it this time and I can't say I'd disagree with the assessment...If you bend a perfectly serviceable airplane by landing it gear up...who else can you blame captain?
