I ran into Jim early after the merger and was immediately impressed with him. Focused, hard working and not given to playing games. At that time he was running one part of the check airman training program and you could tell he was passionate about working for the line guys.

I was in CMH a while back after he had gone to NJs and talked with him. Again, his focus was how to do the job better and he was still a strong advocate for the line pilot. And as we walked around the NJ offices, he was greeted by many with smiles. It seemed evident that he was well liked.

Long story short.. he knows what he is doing, he knows AQP and he is an asset to any company. And GOOD FOR HIM!
