So they will always have this hanging over them. They should go down there and fight. If Brazil wants to play in the
world market they need to acknowledge their short comings and get them fixed. The ATC system down there is to blame for
this crash, and ATC is run by their military, so it will be real interesting to see if they ever admit guilt...
