into 777 SFO next month
)
4) Completely bungled closing the Chief Scabliner base
Incompetence has it's price unfortunately. Training resources are tapped.
1) Common excuse used with great success, and bought, by many pilots.
2)Those displacements didn't go to the 737, 320, or 756. So why no new hire training in those fleets?
3) They failed to offer vacancies for the right seat 777 in SFO. That's why the TDYs. They thought they'd get more bumps from the -400 to the 777 and were wrong, as usual.
4) Absolutely. Who's ultimately responsible for that?
