I believe that it is worth pointing out that the RCMP pilots are in fact civilians. The people making false entries were most likely not members of the RCMP.
Further, there seems to be a great deal of support for charging the pilots that flew overweight; That will not act as much of a deterrent. If the goal is to prevent recurrence of unsafe operations, then charge the operator and make them hurt. The impetus to cut safety corners almost always comes from the person making the profit. If you make unsafe actions unprofitable unsafe actions will cease. Maybe that is something that our college of pilots should get on.

Is there no members working within the Air Division any more? Just curious.
