I must add from what I understand any initial improvement was attributed to the nice guy that was appointed to replace ole as chief pilot.
Sorry grounded, I don't think that you are interested in a civil debate.
You're naming the names of people who are not here to defend themselves. You're calling those people names. Your time at Spirit was obviously short, but you are willing to characterize half of the seniority list as "never could get hired at a major" when in fact a significant number of those pilots were at a major when you were just a gleam in your daddy's eye. Spirit's seniority list includes many Eastern pilots as well as pilots from Midway, AirFlorida, Braniff, and others. Then you follow that slam with this, "yes they are dangerous". That my friend is a very serious charge, and it was not made in a civil way.
Next, no I don't have a "thing" for Ole. I do respect him and feel that he is fair and honest. But, I also got along quite well with Scotty.
You are at best disingenous, if not a liar when you say you have no motivation. You yourself wrote this, "My hope is to inform the public, and hopefully force this industry down another path, a path that airline pilots deserve." You either don't understand that words mean things, or you are just hoping that other people don't read.
