press release

Looking at a 7 paragraph summary can't possibly cover what was covered in 2 1/2 weeks of trial.
The plaintiff had a Skymaster assembled outside the courthouse. It had to be moved because of the "Occupy" thing.
No matter what your take of the piloting efforts, the resulting injuries were extensive.
The note that you copied says, at the end 'if you can't maintain it, don't fly it'. However, in the world of certified aircraft, we rely, we must rely, on the maintainers, who we trust to do a good, safe, job. To keep our aircraft in tip top condition.
It can be argued that it is safe on the day it is signed off. However, we also depend on the maintainers to point out areas that need to be addressed to keep it safe tomorrow.
