It was Hogtied, who said (to precis)

- All airlines have incidents
- Many CX crews have "juicy" training files
- This would be bad publicity for the airline

He didn't say, but certainly seems to imply that it is a mistake for there to be exhaustive & "warts & all" training files once the lawyers & press get hold of them. Not sure if he is saying that people should be allowed to pass more easily, or just that it all documented in an anodyne way.

Same sort of idea with references - you can't be honest now in a reference, just use generalities.

Is this how it works in the US now? That airlines feel they need to be "politically correct" in their training records, in case of incidents?
