Fare enough, opinions yes, misguided and uninformed speculation NO. I've seen the latest newsletter and yes it does appear unfair towards EDI & GLA that the aircraft are being remote crewed but the MAN promotions to the jet are internal and one thing has nothing to do with the other. By your thinking a whole base's promotions would be skewed towards the chief pilot's favourites.
Bully, nope, but if I were flying with you I'd voice the same sentiment, what you are alluding to is untrue
