sorry i am late to the party. Treat those how you would like to be treated. Weather he was in the right or in the wrong every one makes mistakes. By no mean do i condone that kind of behavior. I believe that if we pilots want to be treated as professionals we have to be professionals. We also have to help each other. Every one makes mistakes and i am sure that he feels terrible about what happened. Its going to be hard enough to explain this in a future interview weather it was sleeping in class or something more. Hopefully it does not get him blacklisted in the regionals. Only the top 30% ***hole people in aviation deserve that. Point is we all make mistakes. *hit happens. As funny as these comments are how throughly entertaining it can be, I would implore everyone to lay off that guy for his sake and yours. I would hate to be in his shoes and then have to read all the comments on here. Plus it sheds a bad light on the pilot group and especially on the particular person posting . We are all pilots and all have similar goals and ambitions of getting on with the regional and then majors. With that said mabe give the kid some helpful advice as to how to move forward after this. Put your self in your shoes and still trying to make a dream happen.
