(Mexican) 737 crash out of Havana? My first thought was Swift and please don’t let it be anybody I know.
(Miami Air) 737 off the runway in Jacksonville? My first thought was Swift and please don’t let it be anybody I know.
We all know anything that happens will be classified as pilot error.
It will take somebody that has worked there or for a similar 36th street operation to understand how the whole system is setup to make the PIC the fall guy.
These operations are a house of cards.
Man you guys just always wishing well onto others, Christ almighty. Hope your careers never go facing a dire situation. Calling everyone here to fail basically.
Some of us are working hard to better this place, even when those of you who have had negative experiences bite at our ankles.
Yeah a one crash airline is correct, we’re not delta or American who have had hundreds of incidents/accidents a year and can afford to stay afloat with their billions in insurance, lawyers etc. Doing it right the first time is key and that’s a struggle growing fast and trying to maintain a status quo. We have come a long way from what we were years ago. The mom and pop airline mentality unfortunately still exists in the operation and as it grows it’s unsustainable as you get to 200 pilots and 30 plus acft. FOQA is being implemented to help that and we do have gate keepers calling asking about flights. So they are keeping score.
I have never as CA, FO or LCA been made to do anything outside of safety or regulation. Nor have I ever felt the repercussions from it. 2 people sign the release not just one. Even if you’re the FO you have a say. Walk away and if as you guys claim someone pushes you ASAP it, report it etc. Your leadership doesn’t always know everything, show them in the book. Call out your CA. How many accidents have happened because the FO sits there and lets the CA dig both of their graves.....
