I wouldn’t run and make any conclusions on this hacked one-sided story. I am fortunate enough to know a few IBERIA pilots and I can tell you they are extremely professional individuals.

Yeah, that comment in itself made me realize what a professional individual this “Light Twin Driver” is.
As far as I know, IBERIA airplanes are not falling out of the sky every day. IN FACT, both KLM and Airfrance have far uglier accident statistics. Would you call Airfrance and KLM pilots Cowboys? Why don’t you just go ahead and call all pilots, excluding yourself, inept cowboys?
After reading countless replies, I guess I forgot that only UK pilots are worthy of flying airplanes. Last time I checked, I can’t find a single Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, or Swedish pilot who shut down the wrong engine of a passenger airliner. Touche.
