That "muscle head" you speak of is one of the best assets the training department had back then IMHO. He could come across as an arrogant dude, mainly because of his physical appearance (yes, he worked out a lot.), but once you traded 2 words with him you realize he was a cool cat.

I had him several times on the Jumpseat, and in the sim. He's a good guy.

Him and GF (head of standards back then) where the only 2 members of the North Mississippi Flying Club that actually tried to shake off the bad reputation the other members gave themselves by not being total arrogant tools...
