We train on stalls. It's flying 101. Also, the fact of the matter is that Colgan knew everything legally possible about both pilot's back ground. Apparently you can fail 141 training and still have the records show that you passed all. That's not Colgan's fault. Raising the mins won't change anything as these pilots were already high timers for regional standards. I hope this doesn't turn into a circus.
Again, the content of his letter is negligible. I asked your credentials, you didnt respond. You reduced an air force major C-130 captain to a C-172 weekend warrior who doesnt understand aviation. Thats only what I was touching on. Check your facts before throwing mud. End of point. Over
