After reading the first post, please feel free to come back and reconsider whatever it was you were going to post here. If you feel that your
informed 'speculation' is really something that we airline pilots should be rewarded with then go ahead. However please do not come back on here with disappointed posts when you get flamed for what the majority of the rest of us consider to be uninformed waffle and amateur drivel.
I note that quite a few of the 'uninformed speculators' also happen to be some of the first to jump on the "let's slag the media" bandwagon when they come up with something that hasn't quite been researched as thoroughly as they think it should have been.
I do note that some of the replies are really cringeworthy and do the poster no favours. So, once again, please read the following post before jumping in with an opinion that could be likely to cause embarrassment:
