do you really expect any Management of any Airline to go out there and say that the fact that some Crews had to declare an emergency by applying the book is a catastrophy? They did not say it was an everyday occurrence, they only said that there was no reason to panic.
As you claim to have been in an operations management position you should actually know that. You say you have no agenda? So why the pissing contest?
The LAN flight was caught out big time, yet I still miss the ever growing thread about management abuse, bad airmanship and all the other BS that was given in this one...
