Thumbs down I never knew God flew Metros

It seems a certain Chief Pilot of a large freight company thinks he is invincible.

Why would anyone think this? Maybe because of the following...

* V1 cuts at night in a metro, with a full load of freight

* Single engine go rounds at night, once again with a full load

* Continuing with takeoffs after a simulated engine failure at 90kts (V1 up around 105kts)

Didn't anyone learn after Tamair?

By the way, this is more than just rumour, this is substantiated and many people are genuinely concerned that this sort of behaviour is going to end in tragedy.
