Different regime, but never say never.
So, at this point in their career, they are fairly senior Captains….. What say you on their capability to coach and teach junior FOs when their own experience is so relatively limited???

If you were referring to Jyri, he is a piece of ****. I think we all can agree on that. If not, I’d love to know another douchebag piece of management we formerly had.

Jeff Carlson; he pre-dated Jyri by about 5-6 years. Came from NWA.

Well, one of them created the system/flows app that a lot of you probably downloaded to learn the plane, and another got about five times the OE hours the rest of us never would…… so I would say it varies widely.

Nope, predates him. Brought along some of his whiz kids interns from NW to develop training who never actually flew the jet. Some of the CBTs still have their narrations and it makes me cringe to this day.

lol…. All this time I never knew our CBTs had audio…. I was wondering why I couldn’t advance to the next slide after if I finished reading them.
