Are you really this naive? If your HR dept actually did that, they are grinding an ax, nothing more.
If he crashed, he crashed. How do you explain that?

In any case, as I mentioned before there are plenty of military pilots who can handle asymmetrical thrust just fine. Some can't. Period. You don't think any ex-military pilots wash out of AA's interview or training? Now who is being naive?

In any case, many ex-military pilots at mainline flew aircraft that are considered multi-engine with adverse yaw. They didn't all fly single seat fighers like the F-16. Most who I know anyway flew everything from P-3s, C-130s, C-5s, and even the F-111 which is borderline but technically not centerline thrust given the distance between the engines.
