There's scant overlap in this horror to bona fide commercial aviation companies going solely by what's presented in the attachment. Which isn't to say many of us haven't been witness to behavior on the job which fell short of best practice effort in ways indefensible. My experience has been that a crewmember who intentionally deviates from accepted procedure in a maneuver or event which gains unintended discovery in some manner, has often revealed themselves in lesser transgressions previously. These acts may have occurred off property or in ways not specific to performance of their assigned duties. But looking back, after a show stopper, reportable incident, there will be something recent to discuss in attempting to unravel how it may have been prevented and what changes to monitoring or surveillance must be implemented. Without exception, failures of this kind lead to regulator examination of safety culture lapse. Return to normalcy in all operational areas will hinge on providing exhaustive documented assurance, structural remedy has taken place in that regard. Yet, here's this one character, who really got sideways, for no reason except gonzo. Tough anticipating that without putting yourself in the breach.
