Let's face it, there is a lot of big egos in the 121 world. Add a pistol and you have, well..... Clayton

That's true.

I would say you played that well. The only one among us who has not said something stupid is the one who has never spoken. The alpha male display is fairly common with a few check pilots, just a normal part of life.

Perhaps a little different take away is possible- over the entirety of human experience, egos have proven to be far more dangerous than weapons.

What made you think it was GoJet?

ATLPilot404 03-15-2012 03:36 PM

I can't find a reliable source that says he flies for GoJet... Would you please reference your source for all of us here

For the love of God... Keep GOJET out of this damn thread. It has little (he works (or worked) there) to NOTHING to do with the topic at hand.

This is about an FFDO who completely abused his jurisdiction and privileges and broke several SOPs doing what he did... UNREAL.

Sorry for the vent.... :D

Check your source if he wasn't employed he wouldn't be an FFDO... but he's not GJ. Don't know why people feel they need to make things up to make others look bad. We all need to stick to the facts. If you find a reliable source please post it

He was a Gojet Pilot but was fired.

Maybe he worked at my company, and I just moved up in seniority !
