People underestimate how hard it actually is for Flight Ops to fire a pilot who hasn’t done anything egregious. The KP fiasco was an excellent example of what happens when they try to get rid of a pilot who they simply don’t “like” or perceive as having stepped on too many toes. It never works in management’s favor.
