Wow. The pilot NEVER should have signed away his right to sue. The government only understands the stick, and loosing money in a load public announcement of their incompetence.


Well, yes. He could have refused to sign and called his lawyer, but it

on contingency, but getting acquitted in the first place would have
cost him a load of money up front.

Laws and courts are for those who can afford to pay for them...
