It remains to be seen if pilot error contributed to this excursion. And if it did spend time putting yourself in your brother aviator's shoes and learn from their unfortunate mishap instead of rushing to put them down for a mistake you could just as easily make. I hope you didn't let the interviewers at your Spirit interview see your toolish side.

I never understood why AE, XJET, and Comair pilots on the internet think they are the only elite cadre of pilots capable of flying airplanes designed to be flown by the lowest common denominator in 3rd world countries. We all have it in us to put an airplane in the weeds.
