How'd they even get to talking about regionals? Sounds like Capt. God's Gift to aviation has a personal vendetta against them..to group all regionals together as being unsafe is about as fair as grouping all major pilots together because of a few bad apples..which I know they're out there

The interview failed to make the connection about "safety."
One might say, rather accurately, that safety is impacted because pilots are very distracted in their jobs because they are worried about finances and have not had an agreement for nearly 10 years.

He's a pretty accomplished/respected pilot in the field of "Safety". Ever heard of "SRM Consulting"?? And "Yes", it was established a few years prior to Flt 1549's landing on the river (Jan, 2009).
SRM — Safety Reliability Methods, Inc.
So yes, I would say he has 'some' respected/formidable background in the safety arena.....maybe even an 'expert'.
