Beags, I admire the honesty and integrity, I really do. What worries me is how many more close calls are there that people are not reporting - ISTR the old condor and murphy etc etc etc. Would the young and the overstretched fill these in nowadays and would the spineless managers up the chain ( yes I do not think of many of them as leaders) actually do something about it.

As an ex liney I am now in the position I really did not want to be in - to be in a position to say to all my mates still in that "I told you so, etc". The scary thing is how short a timescale it has come about in.

Those still in have my greatest respect (generally) but they must keep the "I can do this as well as all the other stuff" in perspective. Keep an eye on each other out there and fly safe.
