Re: 767

@whitepines. In aviation safety is is sometimes referred to as the Swiss Cheese effect. So many holes have to line up for the event to happen. Any breaking of the lining up stops the failure. Multiple redundancy can be expensive or heavy but it is safe. Also the reason aviation has so many cryptic checklists and acronyms. However I feel more relaxed flying having done them as it means I am as safe as possible. Always feel edgy if I realise a check item was missed. And yes, the paperwork and inquisition if there is an event. BB is appropriate as there are now types who actively look for others faults to dob into aviation management for any trivial event
