The fact is, according to the NTSB and the FAA, (in that order) it is and
will always be the pilots fault when a plane crashes.
1) The pilot is responsible for the correct piloting of his craft.
2) The pilot is responsible for the mechanical fitness of his craft.
Sure, people sue everyone when these things happen, but in the end it's the
pilots fault. That's easier for the FAA/NTSB to deal with.

NTSB, in their infinite wisdom, will find the pilot contributed to the
accident by" failing to maintain separation from the terrain".
