All of you having a go at SAA here are frankly upset that you didn't get offered a flight deck seat here for whatever reason. I am a caucasian training captain with the company. This program is going to succeed because one of the key components of its success is the correct attitude of all of the participants in the process. Unfortunately the issue of race and capability is once again an easy escape for your argument. I urge you to accept the change that is overdue and imminent.
