Thats funny you said that. We had an issue with the Hstab during landing in icing conditions. Captain got scared and ended up quitting. Our mechanics took care of the problem the next day.
Concerning the captain. He will get a big bill for not finishing his contract. Unfortunately these kind of people are the ones that screw other pilots. We used to have a fair contract training before this DB after this DB probably we won’t anymore.
