things must be getting dangerous in QL.
so does this mean MD has to go flying now?
can still remember him telling us during induction back in early 2002 that our backgrounds and experience would be considered and that we would be upgraded quickly blah blah blah. mind you this was to a room where the lowest time guy was about 5000hrs/1000hrs jet,the course average would have been 10000hrs.
almost six years later on the day i resigned my command upgrade would have been awarded. a few guys had left before the endorsement, others left over the years and now noone from that course is left.
now all i can do is shake my head and occasionally laugh at the current state QL has mismanagend to find itself in.
i find it very entertainng/schadenfreude watching the dashes fly down final on a calm day 'all over the shop' and then do some of the roughest/hardest landings i have ever seen. thankyou QL for allowing us to see what happens when you put someone at the controls who is obviously way out of their depth. fingers crossed nothing bad happens although the aircraft are a solid testament to bombardier.
merry xmas and keep it stable.
