To add to Mr. Mills' comment. Another incident at LAX by KAL. Many years ago a KE MD-111 freighter made a hard landing at LAX. It curved the fuselage like a "U." After being unloaded at the KAL Cargo facility, it was was towed to the old Continental Maintenance facility. Anything denoting KAL (aircraft colors, tail no., etc.,) was painted over very quickly.
They always do that. Name an airline that leaves a broken plane around with their titles on it if they can help it.
Some people never learn.
It's a common management / administrative practice that desperate situations deserve desperate solutions/remedies.
And we all know that such a principle has universal application.
I wonder when and how the world body ICAO and FAA will invoke this ?
Why wait for some more Asiana 214 like accidents ?

Seeing as I live on Saipan, I am curious as to why flights were suspended to Saipan for 7 days? What does that indicate if anything. Was the original flight to Saipan, and if so what difference does a 7 day suspension of flights mean at all. Seems the punishment is for us, reducing the tourist trade which is pretty much our only source on income.
With no malice to you and your trade, would you prefer a mishap that may harm the inflow of visitors on long term basis ?
Isn't a short term inconvenience better that the long term kind ?
Look at when your car is under service and/or repair !
We all know too well the principles behind the crime-punishment-corrective/deterrent equation !
:-p

I think it's more likely the pilot didn't know what to do about the light rather than actually ignoring it.
WDR ( with due respect ) if this being so his training and briefing are defective, a management dereliction !
