SWA is killing its own pilots on purpose.
 

Actual footage posted on social media of SWA Mx removing the OEM cockpit sunshades on a new Max.

SWA removes the sun shades because then they would have to fix them if they break or pilots write them up. Keeps the cost down for Mx. They don’t care about skin cancer.

Remember: “Pilot Quality of life has no value to SWA”

You are really that worried about skin cancer and think a plastic shade will prevent it? Try aluminum foil under your pants. :rolleyes:

Stan, sun shades block out UV rays you Dumb A$$.

This coming from a guy who thinks seatbelts and helmets do not save lives. You are the poster child of an idiot .

If memory serves, the retired HOU rep, I think it was Howard D, went on a crusade to try and get the company to take responsibility for removing the OEM sunshades. That was the genesis of the SWAPA sunshades - it was to embarrass the company into taking action.

Our pilots prefer. Oh man. That's rich. So there really is a warehouse with a bunch of sunshades in it. It's in PHX! Probably has the Ark of the Covenant in there too along with some old 300 autothrottles. I would go and find out, but I don't what my face to melt off.

I don’t understand how this isn’t an OSHA complaint.

This is why you try and fly as much IMC and as little VMC.

The shades aren't plastic. They are embedded with foil and shockingly effective at blocking UV. The original NG shades were gold foil and $$$ when they would tear.

dude, Aluminum Foil goes outside the pants. Everyone knows that.
