I'm a little touchy?
Oh yes the Flight Safety Foundation...they call here all the time asking for money.
In the last sixteen years of worldwide flying I have held less than one hour of total time here in the United States. This includes four and a half years in JFK as a scheduled captain on an annoying turbo-prop, it also includes regular visits now in the Citation X to Los Angeles, Boston, Miami, Dallas, Chicago and St Louis..among others.
By comparison, I went to Bankstown and could not get off the ground for an hour to shoot approaches at Wollongong and we had to cancel IFR and transit beneath the steps to get back!
Airline schedules? Political movements? Get off the grass!! Next you'll be blaming sunspots! Your job is to move aircraft why they bleed fuel and piss-off passengers for being late and blame it on you. You knew this going into the profession and if you don't like it you should leave.
Sorry!
Next!!
