Hi Danny,
If nothing else this thread shows that there are many people other than ATPL holders who are seriously interested in discussing safety incidents and who can provide valuable input. I understand the frustration caused by spurious and unrealistic comments however, the questions posed by those 'outside' of the cockpit often result in valuable discussion that probes the issues to a level than would otherwise occur.
I suggest a forum that is open to those who can provide bonafide proof of a discipline that is:
- Directly related (eg flight crew)
- Allied (eg maintenance, engineering, dispatch, ATC etc)
- Representative of objective thinking (eg tertiary qualified)
- Expert in a related discipline (aviation medicine, human factors etc)
How to implement:
1) Registration with your real name and a scanned copy of a valid (not current) qualification. This information to be kept private by Pprune.
2) One time fee of (USD$10) to cover costs of admin.
It won't be perfect but it will filter a lot of the c
p that currently get's posted.
Cheers
Th
