Toecutter,
as an AN pilot, not involved in 89,I find your remarks insensitive & impertinent.
We were affected by 89-talk about the questionable promotions,CRJs,INH,events that with some strength in our pilot group may not have eventuated.89 is a legacy generations will pay for and I don`t think should be dismissed so nonchantly.
There is a bitter group of pilots evolving now,careers ruined,forced abroad and cursing AirNZ.They are AN pilots and years from now I think they will take offence at being told to forgive those culpable.
Was referring to CRJ promotion of AN F/Os,not any inadequecies of KD or the a/c.
