I can not believe this crap. Gina, the ex-crew scheduler is now an expert in 121 training?
"The Q was hard to fly because it has a lot more button and lights," WOW!! Thanks for the insight. Tell me Gina, since you are a student pilot, how do you feel about the stall training at Colgan "Marvin was doing what he was trained to do, he was recovering from a tail stall."
This is the biggest joke I have ever heard, I do not know if I am raging or just delirious with the fact they are talking to her. How about we talk to the guy who sweeps the floors at night what they feel about derived minimums.
Absolutely disgusting interview! Awful is an understatement. Which is worse, listening to that tanned sleeze Cohen on PBS or the former crew scheduler and now "aviation expert" on NPR? This particular example is the problem with the media today. Explain to me how a high school diploma and a solo endorsement makes you an aviation expert on the subject of 121 pilot hiring, training, safety, pay, work rules and all the "lights and buttons in the cockpit!" Irresponsible at best! Do I see a "Journalist of the Year" award in her future?
NPR's next interview, "Medical Expert": a night janitor at a hospital discussing the techniques of brain and heart surgery. No offense to any janitor, I would much rather have that job than that of a crew scheduler or sketch reporter
