Absolutely agree. I never understood why the company didn't take these pilots to the break room and say "we're sorry, you can either resign or be fired... thanks for working for us."
One fatal accident attributed to pilot error with one of them being 70+ and a training record as thick as a 1979 Sears catalog... it could shut the doors on NetJets. Why? Because everyone and their brother has been preaching for years about this problem.
