The hiring practices at most regionals are sketchy at best. Anyone with an ATP and a pulse automatically qualifies. I'm sure there's gonna be some grandstanding politicians all over CNN bloviating on the matter soon enough.

Drop a dime, drop a dime. I'm too busy today but if someone with first hand experience told CNN I bet they'd run with it...

The fact that he only had 630 hours is irrelevant in this case... he wanted to kill himself and damage his airline and apparently had some sort of medical issue.....

His inexperience is a WHOLE other situation all together.
