Still amazing that MD spent years blaming multiple failures of people working in the ground rather than being dragged on the coals for making an aircraft that could fail catastrophically due to an invisible error made by a single hypothetically unskilled luggage handler (though note that at least one of the people they attacked as illiterate spoke 3 languages). But even more so, once they were "aware of the design error" they made a "gentleman's agreement" with the FAA to fix it as long as the FAA didn't do anything that would force them to actually fix it, and then none of the MD executives went to jail for homicide after killing the occupants of flight 981. Then after all of this BS, McDonnell Douglas knew the cargo door was faulty before even Windsor happened. They had had the cargo door fail in their own testing prior to any accidents and went with it anyway. Again, the ability of executives to remove themselves from criminal accountability is astounding. The same happened with the 737MAX: it was executives who signed off on deceiving the FAA, it was executives that approved the single point of failure, it was executives and the board of directors who claim their compensation is due to them having responsibility, and yet they have not been charged with murder. If I sell you a car with faulty breaks, and tell you they are not faulty, and provide falsified reports claiming that they're safe, and then you die when the breaks fail, I would be charged with at minimum manslaughter, but likely some variation of homicide: the deaths followed from the criminal act which means the deaths themselves are criminal acts. It's the same reason that if you hold up a bank and the teller dies as a result of a heart attack you would be charged criminally for that death. Until the executives and board directors of companies are themselves subjected to liability in addition to the company's civil liability nothing will change.
