Yes this is a "minority" of pilots........ but in my opinion it's not a tiny insignificant one.
I'm actually a bit over it.
I think that comes under the "bullying" part of the report. 1 out of 10 pilots reported having been subjected to bullying. In reality it seems the number is higher. All over aviation we may label them as "idiots", "wankers", "difficult to fly with", but in reality they are workplace bullies.
I hope they have the capacity to understand
THEY are the ones who are the target of this report. Either they change their behaviour, or under a new mentality they will have to seek alternative employment.
