Yeah, we know all that and it has been documented so many times. One would have hoped that in this day & age with EASA & FAA spreading its influence of standards over the whole world, and supposedly giving other regimes something to strive towards, that this anti-CRM culture would have been diluted enough to stop such crass actions 'due to culture'. Many of the eastern airlines are now contracting huge amounts of cadet training to western schools that one could hope for some success in this regard. It really is very sad that such cultures can be perceived as overcoming anti-suicicdal actions by professionals.
Makes one wonder what if this had been a pax jet? One would hope that standards in pax & freight ops are similar, but I wonder.
