Simple. as PIC, it is your responsibility to have the
understanding of regulations, where to get knowledge of said
regulations, have current charts onboard, and be aware of current
NOTAMs in place for a given field. That is just among the number of
other things PIC needs.

You have admitted yourself that you do not posess knowledge of
said regulations. When you asked about them, and were given URLs to
find them as they are publically available, you refused to look at said
links for regulations, and to an extent, argued against looking at them
for various reasons.

In short, you are blaming them for not being responsible... the
same irresponsibilities you lack in yourself. Like I said, Pot, Kettle.

They are subject to FAA regulations. I am not.

Rest assured, however, that in their situation, I would have been on
the correct runway, I'd have had the current numbers, and I would have
walked into the correct aircraft on the first try prior to the flight.

It shows.

I would be more inclined to believe the US has spy satellites
over Canada and Mexico than to believe the above statement. I have more
than a number of fair arguments against your statement that have
already been stated by others in this NG. I don't need to go into them
again. Needless to say, as you don't possess the credentials to fly in
the US, we will never know if the above would be true. I'm actually
glad of that.
