So the chairman of the board of our national flag carrier resigns to take responsibility for the 500 kg of luggage he took back from Tokyo recently. Again, everyone is seemingly missing the point.
The point is that luggage documents were falsified, changed from 500 to 100 kg. This breaks all sorts of rules, not just moral rules on making fake documents, but civil aviation rules and weight distribution rules as well.
It's almost like, "oh, let's put in a couple of missle launchers and not declare them" like the Khazak pilots tried to do lately.
Then there is the issue of safety. Well, while one 500 kg passenger might not be a problem, what if the entire board made a trip. The extra weight and unplanned weight distribution (moreso the distribution than the weight itself0 could mean a lot of extra fuel needed to be burned, and that has safety implications.
But is any of this important? No, the headline is just that he resigned for the excess baggage. End of story.
Narita should sue him for endangering the flights. Others paassengers should. The ICAO or CAA should, too.
It is like Bill Clinton all over again. He was impeached for lying under oath. He was found guilty of sexual misconduct. There's a slight difference there.
