Who have they fired for a mistake like this, unless it involved holy sh*t-level stupidity?

You know perfectly well it wasn't just the wrong heading that got them fired. The CA got his job back very soon after.

Actually I know exactly the background being in contract compliance at the time.

And by shortly after you mean more or less than a year? And what about the FO.

It’s Envoy.

Once again, thread drift, back on track.

Don’t keep us in suspense! What happened in ORD? Never heard about it on AvHerald or anywhere else.
If anything else it could be a good learning experience for all of us.

Sounds like there's some weird quirk on that plane about shutting down #2 before the apu is fully started.... can knock out nw steering and braking.

But anyway, talk about that in the envoy thread. I'm sorry I brought the H-youth into this, just wanted an easy clap back at coochie

They fired some CA. off of the ATR for trying to repair an overhead bin, on his next turn into the hub. I think it wouldn't stay shut or some dam thing and he wound up breaking it trying to fix it.


I guess we had faster cockroaches back there then.

So much this. They made it clear on the first day of ground school that you were expendable... plenty of other guys willing to do your job for less.
