Not disagreeing with anything you said. But just want to add that Lion Air themselves do not have a good reputation in terms of safety and timeliness. And the truth of the matter is that some companies in Indonesia have a bad culture, where it would put the word 'lobbying' to shame. It does put things into perspective.

I think I remember an early phase in the news coverage in which Boeing seemed to actively try painting Lion and Ethiopian as irresponsible in order to divert blame. If this memory isn't completely off then the revelation of Boeing having resisted a push for more training by Lion is an epic karma bite.

“And the truth of the matter is that some companies in Indonesia have a bad culture”

So same as some companies in US then. Naming no names.

What perspective is that? I'm unsure how this would affect my view of the issue. If anything Lion Air pushing for simulator training is a good thing, no?
