100% true. Not fair to the pilots who have to fly with them, putting their life and careers at risk every flight.

We had one at CAL that was famous. He had multiple training failures, CRM problems, line flying issues, etc. He had a huge file in the chief pilot office but every time they tried to discipline him, he shouted discrimination because he was a Muslim, and the company would back down and do nothing. He finally was given the option to retire or be fired after stalling a 737 at max altitude trying to top weather that he should have gone around. He flew with mostly reserve pilots.
