Amazingly, with a jumpseater from (DL, WN, UA, B6) they become an INCREDIBLE pilot that is super friendly and actually gave a damn about his crew, just to try and impress the guy in the jumpseat and get a letter. As soon as that fill in the blank jumpseater disappears up the jetway, back to reality it goes. So just a fair warning, desperate pilots are capable of incredible things.
