Why would they be living rent free in my head? I stayed within 1% relative seniority and the merged airline was much stronger.
My point was simply, a guy comes on here with an entertaining story from 40 years ago and acts like no changes in pilot behavior would have occurred "but for" the 3 he listed. The pilot in his story was prolly ex-Vietnam vintage. Times were different 40 years ago. It's an "evolutionary" process where his 3 factors of change no doubt had an effect, however, I could list at least 10 things that were prolly more instrumental than the 3 he mentioned.
Maybe you ought to ??? who is living rent free in your head
BTW.... his story was amusing, it just had a logic flaw that wasn't necessary unless one wants to play identity politics. ie ALL Delta pilots parochial, archaic, uptight Dicks that only got the nod from a troubled psychiatrist and that could only be saved by other fresh blood via merger
