Oh Please, that really has nothing to do with it. However, T.H. wasn't fired now was he? If you or I or any other typical line dog pulled that stunt....we would have been history an you know it.
Remember a couple years ago when a NON member CAPT denied a staging FO (member) jumpseating from TPA into a trip. When the FO was going to miss his trip so he called in sick..........he got a few days off (without pay) to spend with his family.
But then again I remember a former SCP who taxied off the end of the runway. His FO was also in mgt (non member)......nothing happened to either one of them.
I also remember a former ACP MGT guy S.M. (Gee another Non Member.......is there a pattern here?) who is now a duty officer........flew across CUBA through the Giron corridor squawking 7500. Nothing happened to him either.......he did leave MGT to accept a duty officer position.
I could go on and on............
