What am I thinking? All the travelling public cares about is cheap fares....
He gave up $8K to buy a type rating so he could "qualify" as a SWA interview candidate.
Wow FF! So I guess it won't be any more unsafe than say the cockpits at UAL after their strike (still continuing) or CAL and atmosphere that has poisoned their cockpits for decades. My god man think of what will happen after those two companies finish their deal.
Bottom line is if it can't be discussed in the cockpit with maturity than it shouldn't be discussed. That is how professional pilots would deal with it.
