this is about head in the sand and pretend this sort of thing doesn't happen
Anything but! The A&CC forum is to enable easy access to information and learning! If an accident/incident/close call is buried among other private flying posts, that's where it will be lost more quickly.
We can learn something from nearly every event. It would be preferred if accident posts were posted to A&CC first. They're okay in PF, as they are "news" so to speak, but mods will usually move them to A&CC before long. That's where the useful information will be more easily found in the future.
