Indeed, I may nave never fingered a bird for the first time as a young whippersnapper, under a blanket watching Titanic on DVD while she was babysitting someone.

Excellent work, then young sir.

Interesting that you say about lessons being learnt. Its a real issue in safety critical industries that some of the lessons are forgotten as experienced people leave. The drive for productivity in the private sector is not allowing time for those lessons to be learnt and understood by younger engineers and managers.
Dont know if @west didsblue has had a similar experiences, but I fear we are bound to repeat them.

Not really seen signs of standards slipping in the Aviation industry but I’m not as close to the safety regulation side of things as I used to be. Having said that, problems with the safety regulation process in the US was a significant contributory factor in the 737 MAX losses a few years ago. Hopefully things have been tightened up over there and they have learnt from that failure. That was an example of when a design flaw should have been picked up by the regulation process. In the past I have been involved in learning lessons from a few aircraft losses and seen new regulations brought in to address certain situations that have caused catastrophic failures. There is a well established process in place to learn from failures and implement new regulations where necessary.

Small mercy that the 5 victims will have suffered an instantaneous death and probably didn't suffer

Can't even begin to imagine how horrific it would have been to have been stuck on the ocean bed for 4 days in a tiny space, freezing in the pitch black waiting to suffocate to death

So we're told they were instructed to change the wording on their website because it wasn't clear they did not have the required certification... which apparently isn't required in international waters - the old innovater-regulator to-ing and fro-ing.
Trailblazing as an adventurer in your Heath Robinson device on your todd (if you wanna push boundaries and frontiers) is fine if you're on your jack... as a commercial sight-seeing tour, not so much
