Once again, Elevation brings some critical insight into where our problem really lies.

I won't say that I haven't b****ed about the fact that we are hiring people with such little time and experience, but the fact of the matter is that the NTSB docket reveals some pretty problematic information about one of our former crew members, and the problem wasn't that he only had 1500 hours.

Additionally, I suspect that I'm not the only person who has flown with a captain or two here who have thousands of hours and many years of experience who still probably have no business being in the left seat.

Should Atlas be the place where you are given your first experience flying a jet? No. Is that really our biggest threat? No. Our biggest threat right now is what management is directing the training center to do, and the fact that it seems that some instructors are obeying. After all, JC just wants "bodies in seats".
