Some good advice from all.
Code Blue, funny you should mention THAT B52 pilot. In one of our CRM refreshers, the video of that accident (the wingover into the ground) is shown. It is quite a good training aid on this type of fellow. When shown, the room was filled with hushed chuckles and pointed glances to our friend. At the end, he stood up and gave us a brief on how to deal with strong personalities!! We were aghast. To top it off, the conclusion to his brief was "if you have th ability to do something like the B52 guy did, do it right." What sort of advice is that??
The good news is that since my first post on this subject, 7 of us have resigned sigting the same reason. That's 7 out of 44. All captains. 3 more are in the process of writing their resignations. That's 25% in a week. Most of our copilots are bonded so can't go anywhere for a few months. The roster is going to be interesting.
