I haven’t kept up, there been a final report on that?
The legacy XJT pilot group has always been the first to stand up and say NO to concessions, setting the tone for regional industry contract negotiations as a whole. See every contract negotiation and vote since Contract 2004.
BUT, things have changed and unfortunately I think the vast majority of the legacy group that voted no in the past has moved on. This leaves a bunch of non legacy XJT lifers and new hires that may tilt the ship, unfortunately, in the wrong direction. Good luck to all!

”jacburn” laid it out pretty good.

No. I will tell you that the ILS and the airport itself played a major role in this accident.
John, do you want to explain to the pilots left at XJT where the cabin trainer and FTD #1 came from? Something about glass houses.

The fact that they hire pilots like Cabo Killer and ones that have been forced to resign from XJT for other "issues" might have played a role in it too.

Was more curious about the human (and technical as you seem to vaguely allude to) factors of the how/what/why.
And shouldn't you be no longer left at C5?
