JJ and Merc... what was the experience level of the guys about to land on the hotel roof in DUB? Uhh the KAL crew that flew a perfect approach to the Guam VOR??? and then there was the lastest and greatest into AMS??? and then there was.... and.... and....

Over the past 30 years, I given line training to the so called 250 hour wonder birds who were legends in their own minds. After some attitude some motivating speeches and adjustments all was good. Those who did not come to grips of the real world... lets say they went on to bigger and better.

JJ and Merc... either you guys are too young or to old to remember that back in the '60s US carriers hired the same 250 hour wonder birds with a commercial ticket and in some cases no instrument ratings and are now the sky gods of today... and yes some of them drove their jets into the ground too.
