CRMHOF, assuming that your background in research included the problems of bias and critical thinking, you might still consider “What you look for is what you find” (Hollnagel).
You appear to posit that intergenerational or intercultural conflict on the flight deck is proportional to the availability of qualified pilots, yet there might be many other aspects which could influence the ‘hearsay’ of cockpit dynamics (and what exactly do they involve).
I fail to see how uncontrolled ‘stories’ from an open web forum can contribute anything meaningful to research into a specific area.
Alternatively, looking for ‘stories’ about cockpit conflict might identify a vast range of aspects and perceived causes which pilots experience every day. All that this might show is that everyone is biased and we tend to relate stories about the world as we see it now. Also, often with little consideration of what we actually know about the subject or how we have been influenced by what we have heard.
