I'd prefer a regulatory standard which is reliably enforceable. The really heinous stuff is low-hanging fruit, but I don't necessarily want to fly with garden-variety felons either (although SIDA standards should keep most of them out of 121).
That’s what they’re supposed to do, but I’ve never been asked either—three cert’d, six ratings. Surprised to find it in FSIMS.
Most of the NTSB rulings started with falsification of required documents.
