yes, let the boys have fun. No problem with that.
But a CPL with a Fox thingy stall/spun into the ground, almost died, thankfully didn't. Youtube followers (with encouragement) have donated enough to get him a new Fox thingy.
No problem with that.
I applaud Just Culture, Youtube is fine. CPL making a HUGE basic mistake and being rewarded with a new plane?
I don't think that fundamental airmanship / training / safety culture principals have been followed.
Bear in mind that I am contemptuous of a 'by rote' safety culture, it (IMO) doesn't work.
But hot dogging, screwing up and getting a replacement plane out of it is messed up. Flying Cowboys are having fun, which is nice, but it's not smart, safe or (usually) informative.
Have fun. Be smart and live forever (or die in the attempt) [Lightly borrowed from Yossarian]
