NetJets Pilot assists on SWA Flight
This is unofficial since it's based off a reply in the "Walter Mitty, report to the cockpit" thread in the Major/SWA forum. The incident did happen thou, I'll post the link to the article.
Apparently the SWA PIC had a medical event and was removed from the cockpit and attended to by a pax who was a nurse. The NetJet's pilot handled the radios while the SWA F/O flew.

Same guy???? Sounds like you love your Blazer and wear it proud and are the EXACT reason why every other pilot in the FBO laughs at you as a joke! Just dont be angry while you are at your next FBO and understand why every pilot there says "Netjets? Figures!"
