Okay, people, please, as I said, the Kyushu incident is separate from the main deal because it was not anything the leadership approved, (edit:) or at least that I know of.
Discussing that particular incident is not useful in any way 'till we have all the facts.
One possible outcome is that the leadership didn't stop it, the pilots get away, and there's further escalation with Kusari, another is that they did a stupid thing, they get punished and an apology in order to keep neutrality is made, or we decide to stand firm and Kusari reacts, or some other thing.
The main point is, we don't have all the info and it's pointless to get into an argument at this point. Were any pilots above the lowest rank present there, I'd be telling a different story now, but as it seems, the highest rank there was First Lieutenant(which is a graduate from the academy), which doesn't inspire confidence into me(no offense, guys, nothing personal here).
So wait and see for now, hm? Nothing good can come out of a train of thought like this, and we've already filled 10 pages, a few of which we could've easily gone without, not that I don't enjoy all the fun of trying to keep us all friendly here.
