NetJets was the first job where I met pilots who were flat earthers. I didn't think a pilot could earn an ATP, and fly long distances, yet completely ignore math, science, and provable fact, but they exist. From staunch racism, fringe extreme political views, odd behavior, guys carrying binders around to show how many law suits they have against the company, people trying to convince you that there are aliens living underground etc. I had never really experienced any of that before NJA.
I wondered where so many ex-EAL senior pilots went, now I know. We had some winners, too. Like the captain who told male passengers leav8ng, “keep in your pants, sir.” Or the guy with the wood chipper.
