We're all being gaslit. The narrative that she's some sort of hero trying to protect the sanctity of the world's aviation safety reporting systems is spin of the highest magnitude. If there is some sort of cultural problem causing crews to violate the FAR's and company policy then it should have been FSAP'd BEFORE things went sideways. Taking this on as a last-ditch effort to get your job back is not some sort of courageous maneuver. Four airlines and 30 years and I have never seen a situation where there is an obvious, systemic effort to have crews violate FAR's. Certificates (both airline and airmen) are far too hard to come by for that. The pilots I know wouldn't do it regardless. She's not the victim. The victims are all of the people who were in a 757 with a slightly lubricated assistant baseball coach at the controls.

14 CFR § 91.3 states that the pilot-in-command is directly responsible for and is the final authority as to the operation of the aircraft. Not much gray area is there?

As to perjury, it's just a hunch. I know how long it takes me to pee.
