I listened to the nearly one hour interview with the crew on CBS, and strangely enough the good Captain not once mentioned his First Officer as actually doing....anything.
It was always...'I switched on ignition' or 'I started the APU' etc.
This was noted by several other pilots as well who were watching.
Well folks, it takes two to tango in that particular airplane, one would have thought that the good Captain would have at least acknowedged his Fist Officer as actually having accomplished....anything.
Now he says he is worried about the airline industry.
IF the good Captain is so worried, perhaps it is time he retired, and let someone else do the 'worrying'.
These USAir folks just simply cannot get over the fact that their company was bought, lock, stock and barrel, by another carrier, and IF that had not been done, they all would have been pounding the bricks...out of a job.
I say to the good Captain..a job well done...now stop complaining.
