Do you have no shame? Wtf does this even mean?

people died, and we all know that if we were at the controls of the RJ we’d be dead as well. We all know that the clearance given by the controller was perfectly normal for that airspace and nothing would have been done differently if the tower had 30 people or 1 of any size/shape/color/gender/ on duty.

As a mil dude with literally thousands of instructor/FE time i have never once been asked to lower my standards for anyone. To insinuate before any formal investigation is complete, that dedicated army warfighters would ever sacrifice their integrity to allow a less than fully qualified person at the controls is an incredible gross violation by any normal standard.

get a grip, keep your all consuming politics out of this. Particularly if youve never actually been in the military. I honestly question if some folks are even airline pilots here. I have never seen anything in the training departments other than complete professionalism.

people like you are why the family wanted it quiet for a couple days

Shame on you.
