One reason we issue individuals a certificate or license is to assure that the individual has met a minimum required knowledge and base of understanding where in a critical area of exercising the privileges of such, undesirable outcomes can occur, if not otherwise prepared. A second reason is to penalize or remove an individual from the exercise of those privileges if found at fault for an undesirable outcome. To put an individual at the top that has no experience in any aspect of the aviation industry and the vast intricacies of regulations governing the industry is nothing less than a exercise in bureaucratic incompetence of the first order the likes of which brought down the former soviet union. That is very close to where we are today in selecting our leaders in the United States.
