...oh, and Michael Hunt, you say 'that's not what we are talking about here'. Well, in case you missed it, many of us ARE talking about his other qualities here. Everyone is a complete person. Just because you didn't have anything to do with him outside of the airplane doesn't mean many of of the rest of us didn't. He was (is) a great bloke in many respects, and yes, he was difficult at times in the airplane. Many of us thought him a good operator, so on balance your opinion is no more valid than mine and many others. The main point is, he has now left the company, suffered more than most in many respects and deserves to not be attacked anonymously. If he didn't like your flying, at least he told you to your face...
