    But I do agree that there should be 30 levels of checks and protocols to prevent anything like this from happening.

    I don’t. General aviation is already overly expensive as it is; we don’t need to create even more barriers to entry by trying to hold homebuilt light airplanes to the same standards as commercial airliners.

    Remember: this incident is newsworthy because it’s unusual. Changing policy based on it is a hysterical overreaction.
