TR4A,

It wasn't a -200 [CFM's] but that wasn't the point of my post.

We ALL do it from time to time to as a means to 'fix' the broken wheel, not just SWA.

The assumption from many non-SWA pilots is that "it's just a matter of time 'til SWA...".

Our [collective] inherent desire to assist in/ensure our individual airline's future needs to be balanced with the reality that we are all just one mistake away from the street-no pun intended.

There are likely some things we all see out on the line which, frankly, make most wonder what we're trying to achieve. Ultimately, the lawyers will leave the flight crews holding the can and that's a lesson we must carry on our shoulder straps each time we insert them in the buckle.

Cheers,dd.
