My airline suggests we use TA only at the several airports like SFO when you get close to other airplanes. If you forgot and you get an RA you are required to follow it. Surprised the UAL guys kept going with CPA flying under them.

Scary hearing the lack of SA onboard CPA. Seems those guys need a bit more time bombing around in a small airplane. When ATC clears them for a visual 28L follow the UAL jet, things should have been easier, but instead it seems it made it harder. Easiest thing should have been, AP off, FD off, A/THR off and fly the airplane. Instead it was painful listening to those guys, sounded very overwhelmed. How much experience are Cathay pilots being hired with these days?
