I guess it is what are the words I'm looking for???? Ah yes... professionalism and disciplined to follow company SOPs and maintain proper situational awareness.

I monitor guard above 10,000' and communicate with the cabin crew every 30 minutes to ensure all is well.


With that being said, Fly4hire, your suggestion is duly noted and binned.
This could probably have been said by both of these crews this week.
Kharma is ***** all I'm sayin......

Same cliche... different poster... come on... can't you do better than plagerizing off others?

I appreciate what you say... but again... SOPs... discipline? Can you justify the crew's lack of both.

Have you ever been involved in accident investigations? By your attitude I doubt it. There are always multiple causal factors, many of which come out in the course of an investigation(s) which will take months to get to the bottom of. I'm glad Captain 5 Stripes has passed judgment. Case closed.

You asked a question, and then answered it. Now tell me Fly4hire... why would you answer the question you are asking me?

Well... considering the crew stated that they were in a so-called "heated discussion" looks like they stepped on their own cranks... Sooooooooo your point?

And again... spare me the typical cliches and think long and hard before responding the justification of overflying MSP.

I'll be here.

I cannot think of a justification, but I still have the good manors to not kick a man when he is down.
