This is not a time that the world can hide behind confusion or pretension. We must follow regulation. We must recognize that our own fallibility must not stem from pretension or contumacious ignorance.

Whenever December 28th rolls by, we in the aviation community cannot help but remember the monumental stupidity that humans are capable of. On this day in 2014, Indonesia AirAsia Flight 8501 crashed into the Karimata Strait en route from Surabaya to Singapore, killing all 162 people aboard. The profession of aeronautics is known for the high intelligence and precision it bestows on its members, offering standardized and harmonious global laws, rules, regulations, and guidance. On that day, none of this was seemingly of the slightest consequence.
