Pacific Blue Captain

Some sensationalism in the article and some missing information too I suspect. I am not sure your average Joe could tell the difference between 800 and 1500'.

HOWEVER, if the Captain is being charged, should there not be further investigation into the motives, i.e. any company pressure to get going?
