Who knows..........perhaps this industry is overdue for a MTX related accident ?

Feel free to investigate the TSA/Eagle MTX issues...........or not. It makes no difference to me as again, me or my loved ones don't fly on TSA or Go Jet.......it's a free country and it's my choice. It's not my responsibility to investigate other carriers for the safety of their employees and passengers. If I have concerns with my airline, I can look into it. If another carriers pilots are interested in any potential MTX issues with their airlines aircraft, that's their choice to look further too.

That's about it and it's all I've ever said. I've never instructed anyone else on what airlines to fly and really don't care, but I have the right to choose who I and my loved ones fly on (I don't fly Russian carriers either) and will do so.

Well as they said in TSA training, as long as the wings don't snapp off you're able to get it back down in one piece. By the way the Gojetssss planes are pretty new, you still have 3 or 4 more years before you have to hide your kids.

Where did you get the idea just because an aircraft is new it is automatically safe ?

If that's what they said in TSA training (and it doesn't suprise me), then all the more reason to steer clear for me as it demonstrates a pretty slipshod philosophy.

Thanks for the additional confirmation of my concerns.

I would say this thread is moments away from being the 95th consecutive TSA related thread to be closed.

Did you have to say it? Now it's probably going to be closed. Although the ratio of something is missing from this TSA thread to be closed just yet, can't put my finger on it......hmmm

still nice to see that the pilots in this forum would rather bash each other/each others companies than discuss/debate something that they not only one can actually have an affect on but additionally something to better all of us out there, especially the ones still trying to make a career out of this industry no matter how hard it has become. this thread does not help any of that at all. im glad this thread is a reminder of why i avoid the forums untill middle of the night web boredom creeps in. keep up the good work guys your boosting the moral for all.........

Don't worry, they work on your planes too. But that's a different company...
