Let me see what the Enders Report says about our saftey culture and then I will be ready to point fingers.
I think there is a much more to the accidents than Jack says is the cause. The EWR guys might have a thing or two to say about the airplane it self, why does the gear break on our MD-10s, no excuse, but TLH has a pretty big fatigue cloud hanging over it.
Jack does not impress me much.
Which is it, should I down bid because I don't want to have the responsibility of Captain, or should I bid Captain and stop flying the gravy RFO lines?
Agreed. The letters sent to each group seem to be at odds with one another, of course they were meant for different audiences.
Never once was it mentioned to me during the application or interview process that I would have to be a captain at some point. The FO job pays well and seniority lets me get the things out of life that I want. To even suggest that the company should force anyone upward is ludicrous.
As far as Enders is concerned, at least we know that the report was generated. If I'm ever involved in an accident I intend on using every avenue available to obtain the results of that report. Apparently the company doesn't believe in the old adage, 'the truth shall set you free.'
