My comment to you was about you asking for a name on a public forum. That's foul.

I hadn’t been following the story closely until reading that WSJ article. Very poor judgement.

Having said that, I think the decision making that night could be sexual in nature. Think about it. You’re an older female who all of a sudden has a bunch of young, athletic and generally good looking pro baseball players on your plane. Perhaps she got “excited” and wanted to show off and impress the players/coaches. It’s similar to how men act around good looking females.

When sexual feelings get involved, decision making gets cloudy and can often backfire. Happens to me and things get uncomfortable quick. That’s my theory

This is a part 91 flight. Don't think the FAA has much to say. Company on the other hand , completely different story.

From a simulator? I guess CAE really nailed the realism on that particular one. Seeing the galley cart and flight attendant curtain as the camera panned around at ~:45" was a really nice touch. I wish all the sims had those, as it would be nice to be able to grab a coke zero to help stay awake during those otherwise boring MVs.
Remind us again what you are typed in?

I get that it’s real. See what I wrote above.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'm sure all the embarassing stuff is just a coincidence and that Kirby will point the ship in the right direction.

UAL added $3B in market cap this week even with the WSJ story. Shocking.

91 is non-revenue flying...charter flights are still revenue flights.
