Been there plenty, not sure what "eye-opening" perspective I should have picked up on?

In other news, I saw a Tim Martins on the list. Unfortunate coincidence?

Pretty sure it's not the same one. Reminds me of those commercials about Michael Jordan. "No, I'm not that Michael Jordan."

Now lets see how long this "We are all equal" thing will last.

Anyone want to put some bets down?

You have to be one of the most immature people out there!

Just because skywesters are proud their company doesn't treat them like PSA or Mesa does doesn't make them big headed!

SkyWest bros are not happy because they lost the "We are the best of the best of the best" slogan. Don't hate the playa, hate the game.

Thanks!!

Contract? It's certainly not a collective bargaining agreement.

FOQA captures slow speed events. But ASAP (thanks ALPA) is self-disclosing since the FAA is on the ERC.

Has it occurred to people that things happen for a reason?

The most disturbing thing to me about this new policy is the fact that there is a list of the inattentives and that the FAA and OCC will be strictly monitoring. Those two things go against everything that is supposed to be a just culture, which enhances safety. Anything that is even perceived to be less than a just culture increase risk.
