The bigger question is how much damage ($$$) did it do and who's responsible
for it? I'm sure that a $20 ignition switch used in an airplane costs $500, no?

That ground current may have traveled through control cables,
too, heating them and ruining the temper of the wire and melting any
plastic liners. Might be a good idea to make sure they're OK.
