I don't know how much you guys know about those glory days. I do, I was a very happy second officer with one "balak" on my shoulder. Flight Ops treated pilots (capt and co-pilot) like a pilot. Not just another worker. The other department (HR,Eng,Transport,etc..) are not allowed to bully the pilots. If the pilot/s screwed up something, it is the Flt Ops decision. Transport got no say, if transport is required, they must provide. Not the other way round. Capt H (former DFO) may not be the smartest guy, but no one tell him what to do. I believe he's fair in most cases, no "revenge". Sadly, today's and recent bosses know how to please the Biggest Boss and sometimes he don't mind hitting his own "army" for extra mileage. Worst is, the Boss himself listen to Transport driver more than his own pilots. I have seen this happened and he's still in there.
