I'm sorry, I didn't realize that we as pilots sit on the board of directors, or make financial decisions. I must have said "no" that day when they junior manned me into the CEO's office to ask my opinion. Always someone else's fault isn't it? Using your logic, I should be personally liable for the Colgan crash and the families should be able to come after me personally! Guilty by association! Or i guess since my employer is not financially responsible, that gives me the right not to be! Brilliant!
