After the fact it's always easy to explain a chain of events, but it's difficult or even impossible to predict the next chain of events.<br /><br />Even if we knew everything about every pilot to the extent we know now about the suicidal pilot, we wouldn't have a clue about what we might miss.<br /><br />Digging into the intimate private lives of every pilot certainly is not an option and I, as a pilot, would feel extremely offended by such undertakings.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16821473060642204067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1261498281852074581.post-14818981271001545822015-04-01T20:59:23.646-04:002015-04-01T20:59:23.646-04:00Few will want to admit it though because it requir...Few will want to admit it though because it requires them to surrender control.<br /><br />Progressivism creates the illusion of omnipotence by promising that everything is fixable.
