and SD being complicit in/condoning retaliating against a whistleblower (which also eventually cost him his job leading the FAA). Oh, and he hired Jim Graham, a total POS, who in turn accelerated the cascade of worsening management in flight ops. Every current bad actor in flight ops is a part of the Graham hiring tree. He would have loved these letters. Enough said.

RA pretty much created the airline you all enjoyed riding high on since 2014. TA1 was voted down by the group and subsequently we got TA2. It worked like it was supposed to.

SD ran a solid operation, you can't argue about that. Look at where we are at now. Overall, for our company, Grinstein, RA and SD did good for us.
