wonder if charges can be brought against people who signed off on the ride? Maybe some sort of manslaughter or negligent homicide/manslaughter (is that even a charge? ) or something. Not too familiar with what all those charges entail, just thinking about it. It just seems like bullshite for them to be inspecting rides and signing off on them with corrosion, which should be one of the easier things to spot, especially since it was deemed "excessive corrosion". If it was something difficult to spot or something out of their control, obviously I wouldn't say anything about the charges. But excessive corrosion? That seems like it should be easier to spot and the fact that they were rushing things to get it open leads me to believe maybe they weren't inspecting it properly, which seems like it would leave them open to have legal action taken against them.
Could go either way as you say, in the aviation world there have been numerous cases where a plane was inspected as required, and signed off as airworthy only to have the wings or some other critical structure fail afterwards. The investigation that followed would find corrosion that was not previously detected and that would lead to new and revised inspection procedures.
