For nothing

And incredibly unrealistic end with no, nada, zilch, rien charges sought by the prosecution team:

 

The prosecution did not request any conviction against Airbus and Air France, Wednesday, December 7. He felt that he was “not in a position to request the conviction” of the two companies tried for involuntary homicides after the crash of the Rio-Paris flight, in which 228 people died on June 1, 2009.

Just that everyone understands what’s going on here, they are just telling pilots who confronted the same issue, in similar circumstances, on the same type of plane, that their professionalism and courage doesn’t matter.

For what concern airliners, airlines, it’s the same thing: death is an adjustment variable that doesn’t matter at the end. 

Engineers, managers are then irresponsibles for their faulty professionalism or lack of prudence… 

If you have ever wondered where hell should be, geographically, it’s certainly somewhere b/w Rio and Paris… That’s where death and suffering* isn’t worth a french whisper.

And now, if it happens to you one day, you would have to compose with this grinding feelings of the  lack of justice that will kill you a thousand time more, somewhere in Paris, France.
