FSF Statement on Concorde Verdict

“The Concorde criminal verdict announced today in France is a disappointment, but the fact that this trial was even held is the real concern. Aviation safety professionals know that the voluntary exchange of data between industry, regulators, and operators is key to identifying potential safety concerns and is the reason why the safety record of the aviation industry is unparalleled. When the judicial system gets involved, as it has in this case, it chills this vital cooperation, making it harder for a safety professional to prevent it from happening again. Prosecutorial abuse of discretion is on our most wanted list to eliminate. The assignment of blame should not override the public’s need for a safe aviation system. This is no way to honor the victims of an aviation tragedy.”

The verdict is really unbelievable

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 12/07/2010 - 2:35pm.

It is contrary to all reasonableness: The guy who carried out a work, of course, he did not do a good job. However, what about the quality system, why is it not procedures in place to check and double check work that is vital to safety? And, what about the designers of this great plane, how come it is possible to design a plane that is not robust for a "normal" event like a tyre that explodes? And still get away with it?
