I don't see this as a bad thing. I have been minded to write to Danny about my concerns as a long time and keen ppruner.

As an Airline Captain I have been very concerned about the amount of second guessing and ignorant comments regarding decisions that Captains have made.

I cite as an example : http://www.pprune.org/forums/showpos...79&postcount=6

There have many others.

The Company I work for DO NOT ever question a Captains decision (as long as it was safe). The reason being that they do not want the thought of retribution weighing heavily on the minds of their pilots when making a decision in the heat of the moment. Safety Rules!

If some of these ignorant posters are allowed to continue then it will be judgement on Pprune, and therefore in the public, that weighs heavily on Captains' minds and that can not be good for safety.

Please don't get me wrong I do not have a problem with people asking genuine questions but I do have a problem with ignorants judging decisions made of which they have no understanding at all.
