No, Kip paid the price for that tandem with a 90 day suspension. I can't speak for Kip, but I believe Kip has resigned because he has the backbone to stand for what he believes.

I agree that your life is not worth a few jumps, but this fix is not totally free.

And how much value is the lost confidence in the rig worth?
