Too many accidents from pilot error

Aircraft "crashes" are always caused by "pilot error" except in cases where proven mechanical failure has occurred.

"Weather" is no excuse! If the weather is unsuitable for the flight, don't take off! Your article mentioned "The airship's systems were working properly during a flight that morning," - Thai aviation should grow up and report the TRUE facts about the too many aircraft accidents which have happened and are happening in Thailand, largely due to PILOT ERROR. Either a pilot is well-trained or he is not. Constant and intensive training costs money, but saves lives and valuable aircraft! And, most important of all, saves the reputations of those dedicated officers and enlisted technicians who bet their lives on the safe operation of the aircraft under their control!
