Being Picky With Giving Recommendations
#21
What is much harder to teach a guy is how to be a mature, level headed aircraft commander, that leads by example. In the C-130 community, we routinely went on the road for 2 weeks to destinations all over the world. Handling the crew, along with all the other problems that can arise on a world wide trip takes a mature leader. Over the years, we had a handful of pilots that could fly the hell out of the Herk, but the CO didn't trust them on the road, because they were "goofballs," and I use that term loosely. Needless to say, these fellows never ended up signing for an aircraft.
