Thunder, IF you read my post I said they should be held accountable if it was negligence. I just don't like the "I would never be in that situation" attitude. There is alot of truth to the old "those that have and those that will" saying. It has been my experience that pilots with holier than thou attitudes like you take hard falls someday and then try to cover it up because they recognize their own hypocracy.

Good luck in your future endeavors on active duty and I hope your superior pilot skills never fail you. History and human nature says otherwise however. Hopefully for your sake, your supervisors will have more compassion for your situation than you obviously would.
