Yup. I was an LCA on the shuttle, and TK was going nuts over the lack of qualifications these guys had. I was checking out squadron mates. 2000 hrs of C-141 time, prior furloughed from other airlines. Yeah, these guys were problems?? Nope.
However TK did maintain a microscope on these guys for a while. Prudent.
