And you know he is very professional and a heck of a stick, and I just spoke with him this morning between flights and he is not happy about the scewed rediculous reporting any more than I am. The truth will come out in the response though, watch Monday Morning.
Might be the begining of the end of anyone period that has less than 1500 hrs continuing to fly, or getting to a regional airline. They may be focused on the sensationalism of GIA right now, but I guarantee ultimately these people are out to destroy the career of any pilot that wasnt Military trained with 1000's of hours turbine ever sittting in a 121 aircraft. Most regional pilots have joined a sensational witchhunt because they dont like GIA, but if you think the media isnt ultimately after any low time (read less than 2000 hrs) regional pilot you better wake up. The public believes that if the crew of 3407 both had over 2500 hrs, the capt at 4000 and can crash anyone less than that will crash also...once again dont turn your back on the media...they will bite you....
