Incident occurred over a year ago and at that time,the Captain was facing job re-assignment in March of this year. I don't see a report date (although one is implied). Anyone know how the unfortunate Commander was treated by TC ? A major incident would normally lead to suspension(on full pay) pending the result of a full investigation. Just curious as to how different companies treat these cases. One company I worked for, a Capt scored a major black. Back at Base, Chief Pilot interviewed the offender and said, " Your employment is terminated with immediate effect. You now have 30 minutes in which to talk yourself back into employment ". I quite like that. Oh & before I am shot down, I do agree that the TC incident was more than a 'major black' but still curious about various company's handling of incidents.
