(I know there was a firestorm about using that word but I really think he is mentally challenged. Forest gump x 10 -esque.) I can't begin to describe how clueless he sounds. And a captain no less. I guess you have to be that dumb to stick around.
p.s. Another pet peeve, he and the comair fo both did. Listed about 2 hours before the flight. REALLY? There is one flight a day from
Pdx to dtw. You didn't know you were going to be on it? I could have went to Seattle.
you're allowed to list up to 6 hours or as little as 5 min before. But what does it matter? You would have gone to PDX to find out he/they were listed to the jump seat. And even worse all the standby's cleared the list. what are you complaining about. Welcome to every OH pilots life trying to get from DTW to CVG. It's called commuting or traveling for fun, either way it's a risk. suck it up.
