Oh this is the one where privatization of ATC killed a bunch of people, and then one asshole decided that it was ok to murder the one person involved who was explicitly not responsible. The responsible parties - as outlined in the report: 1. The Russian airline: it put untrained pilots in charge of a plane. We know they were untrained as they clearly did not understand the most basic concept of TCAS. The article tries to paint this is regulatory confusion - which is patently nonsense, the entire concept of TCAS hinges on it being on par with stall and terrain alerts, where there is a single response, and that response counters any other instruction. The fact that the pilots were aware of the system and failed to learn about it is a failure on their part, the fact that the airline company failed to have the most basic of training on it makes it mostly theirs. 2. The Skyguide company: understaffed a region, and then under equipped it while understaffed, and then failed to have any reasonable back up for anything. Arguably a failure brought on by those people that insist "privatizing a public safety system is efficient". But then Mr Macho-man had to defend his honor by going and murdering the one remaining victim of the crash, to demonstrate how manly he was. If you feel that murdering an innocent and defenceless person is justified for the "honor" of your family, and to give you value as a "man" I say you've failed the most basic tenets of "honor", and sure as shit don't get to brag about manliness.
