Dude, you are a Retired Alaska pilot. Nobody gives a rats ass what you think about anything..........seriously, go hang out at the Elks club and be sure to change your Depends

You might be a retarded, er, retired airline guy, but still, you should be able to differentiate between the Spirit thread and the Allegiant thread...

But since you asked, and apparently have no concept of the Google function works, here you go old man;

That's it. The only one. The only engine failure in the past 4 years.

Allegiant? Not enough bandwidth to list them all...

Awesome. Well done!! Thanks for taking the time to educate that fella!

May I have your attention please:

That is all.

Packrat is a troll, we really need to just ignore him and maybe he'll go away.

I know someone who was hired in October 2014 at Delta and just got the call for Upgrade.....Short upgrade times can never be managements argument any more!

he has valuable input. you however sound like a miserable pompous guy. no wife no kids single airbus captain life and still sound pizzed off with spirit and with life. how sad.



what a classless statement to make. if you know the specifics of that accident youd never use that against a pilot. the alaska today is one of the safest airlines out there. one of the most experienced too with junior captains having 10 yrs on the plane as FO. not like your 2 yr capts who are miserable with life and just happy to get out of their crappy regionals and into a bus.

Agreed!......

He wasn't using it against the pilots. Nobody faulted the pilots in that crash at all. The discussion was shoddy maintenance, which was the direct cause of that accident.

From the NTSB report:

"This is a maintenance accident. Alaska Airlines' maintenance and inspection of its horizontal stabilizer activation system was poorly conceived and woefully executed. The failure was compounded by poor oversight...Had any of the managers, mechanics, inspectors, supervisors or FAA overseers whose job it was to protect this mechanism done their job conscientiously, this accident cannot happen...NTSB has made several specific maintenance recommendations, some already accomplished, that will, if followed, prevent the recurrence of this particular accident. But maintenance, poorly done, will find a way to bite somewhere else."

Well, glass houses and all. I'll put our mx against any in the industry. PR came on here making baseless accusations about something he knows nothing about. The NTSB put the blame for that accident squarely on mx.
