The only way out of any goof up is full disclosure.

It's good to see that Commander Perfection is around here still.

Yeah but he treats his students like crap, and has an arrogance streak that is as long as an NFL rap sheet.

I guess the Northwest pilots can now call themselves Delta professionals! Remember in the late 80's and early 90's when the Delta professionals were landing at McDill instead of TPA, wrong runways, and violating MEL's?

I seem to recall every other Legacy, LCC, and regional carrier having a similar rap sheet.

I know 757, but Op Specs and FOM policies will supersede the FAR's if they are more restrictive and approved by the FAA. :eek:

I know but one can always hope!

We are an INCREDIBLE breed of people, we just love to throw other fellow pilots under the bus and watch them bleed...

Not cool :mad:

Have any of you guys been reading the blogs and news regarding this situation? This situation is getting legs and a lot of people are quite upset. Additionally, NORAD is now taking heat and people are wondering why they didn't do anything.

And again, the commuting policy / fatigue is being looked at. I hope these guys didn't commute.

This is just bad timing.

Deserved or not, it seems awfully petty to dream up a new screen name just to jump on the bandwagon, and I suspect these "first posters" <ahem> know it.

This forum is already anonymous. Yet frequent posters nevertheless develop reputations, some informative and professional (ACL65), and some others not so much (aka Deltabound . . heh ;)).

Now we have posters unable to even risk impugning their already utterly ephemeral and inconsequential anonymous "poster-cred" by posting under their regular screen name, yet are unable to resist the opportunity to bash some pilots who's careers are in jeopardy before the facts are known and the investigations have concluded.

So they dream up another name to do it. That, I think, speaks very much for itself.
