Defend the guy, but come on. Not really a shooting the messenger situation, that doesn't apply here. He who argues for demonizing asking an undergrad question on a grad level airplane should be given pause. There are too many of these types in aviation already, and that number is fortunately diminishing. If it was sarcasm, it wasn't clear. I don't advocate for being abrasive in the face of someone coming to me with a question, and neither do you, based on your previous posts. Especially someone coming from Atlas' firehose cooperate-to-graduate training. I welcome questions in the flight deck, because I know that anyone who asks has a pilot's natural ego to get past, and we'll both come away from it with more understanding than we went in. It's nothing personal. I just can't stand the "don't ask me any questions, YOU should show up fully qualified with complete systems knowledge or get out of the seat" attitude. I'm sure others agree that's not something that bodes well in a crew.
