Harry, I have been through the whole thread again and cannot find ANY negative comments about this persons ability to operate a 777.
My comments were about what I saw and its impression it made on me. The comments about the wisdom or otherwise of becoming a "Poster Girlie Girl" for EK are IMHO fair game towards ANYONE who decides to make such a "product".
I do not recall anyone rushing to the defense of Captain America for his offerings in the US press.
Equality cuts both ways. I say again, I commented purely on what I observed in EGHQ absolutely zip about anything regarding anything else.
The rush of "Knights Errant" various to defend this pilot is all very sweet but again has absolutely nothing to do with what I see as a lack of judgement, but that is just my opinion.
And Yes I would be more than happy to say that in person. Being prepared to do just that has been a mantra of my entire professional life, both Military and Civil.
It's called honesty.
