Mark is one of the most sincere, harmless people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Yes, he made a mistake, and it has been handled by TC, but convicting him of criminal charges, is like charging Mother Theresa of Extortion.

Ok,fine. I'm all calmed down now. I understand that there are "systems" in place with all the airlines, for situations like this. I also realize that the crews are trained to handles these situations. Thank you for responding with sensibility and intelligence. It was so much better than being called...

Well I get "a little wound up" when people are hurt. I can't believe out of 31 posts, only 2 of us are concerned about the injured passengers. If 3 of them were bad enough to be taken to hospital, them maybe they should have been in a hospital a little sooner. I guess I was wrong thinking that safet...

Ok, maybe the "23 year old" comment wasn't warranted, BUT.... you have 9 injured passengers, some of them seriously. People bleeding in your plane. What if one of them goes into shock or cardiac arrest? What if one of them is HIV positive? What if one of them is a "bleeder"? There's a number of bad ...

This is so wrong. Word from the "inside" is that some of the passengers, upon arriving in YHZ were taken from the plane on stretchers, via the catering truck lift. Add that to the fact that you just hit severe turbulence at cruising altitude/speed and could have very well overstressed the airframe. ...

24k to fly, and yet a CERTIFIED Flight Dispatcher, starting pretty well anywhere, walks in the door 40k.

Feeling the rumble of a B767 (RB211-524) in your stomach, as it accelerates away from you on the runway. The cackle of a JT8D-17 overhead at -30c. The puff of smoke as the mains touch at 140kts and get caught up in the vortices, and of course, the smell of JetA in the morning. I feel bad for the peo...
