Harsh criticism of French Concorde ruling. Okay, that Continental is at fault is certainly clear - after all, it was their aircraft that was poorly maintained. However, with 113 fatalities, it is probably only understandable for sarcasm-dripping cabaret artists that this company pays a fine of 200,000 euros - but 1 million euros to Air France for the image damage. It then also fits that the mechanic, who - possibly with a lack of care, but simply as a mechanic an employee - did his job and riveted a blade to the aircraft, goes to prison. Strange world.
