I worked briefly last year for a warbird operation giving rides/instruction in the T-6 (actually the SNJ-5), but left after only a few months due to some serious safety concerns. I want to stay positive in interviews and not appear to blame the operation's owners, but the truth is that I felt safety was compromised by policy, my concerns weren't addressed to my satisfaction, and I left. Needless to say, I'm not using them as a reference.

Can I just tell the story straight out as an example of standing firm by my convictions on never compromising flight safety, or do I need to sugar coat it somehow? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Regards,
Ken
