Why are we having to listen to so much nonsense on this forum. So many flight sim captains here as per usual. If I diverted for something as trivial as this that I could not sort out by what ever means I would be fired first thing in the morning! End of story!airlines are now controlled by the bean counters and "managers" on bonuses! Rules and most of all CRM are the greatest tools to flight safety but until the airlines wake up to this and pay attention to it then it's just a slippery slope that at best costs the airline a fortune or at worst an accident! It's the old story, "if you think safety and CRM is expensive then look at the cost of the many incidents and accidents!!!
Anyway, rant over and I sincerely hope that the Captain keeps his job with no hassle. Please think about the trouble and hassle you pose to the individual before you post something like this on a "professional" pilots forum!
