Take a shack lead! They NEVER mention DWs "right thing to do" as a cause. DW created a "top down" manning problem all by himself but seems reluctant to take credit for it. Probably pops champagne with his over 60 bros in private so as not to upset the unwashed? Wonder how many of the retirement eligible DC-10 S/Os would be hangin' it up vice serving coffee on the slave ship. Of course it would still be their choice and they could still have a job if they wanted it but.......Foxhunter preflighting a 727 with a deferred APU in MEM in August.........even he ain't crazy..................well?
