I was damned good at my job and they are damned good at theirs.
Every pilot in the US (and hopefully the world) has watched this drama unfold.
THEY will make my decision easy.
If THEY will fly the thing , I am good with that.
The day they refuse is the day I refuse.
Well, you probably should do some reading on the pilots of Colgan 3407, Atlas 3591 and AA 587. The USA has plenty of good pilots, and no shortage of bad. Just like the rest of the world.
Pilots will fly the MAX if it’s eventually allowed to fly, not because it’s safe, but because they are captives of their pay cheques. Principles won’t feed your family.
