xlwing totally wrong! The person going left seat totally had no place in there! He failed multiple times during his FO training. I spoke to an ex training captain who was there. Said he refused to sign the candidate off. And he wasn't the only one who spoke up about that candidate.
So this was NOT one of those cadets you guys like to pick on! They are far better than the guys coming off the street!
This is an issue deep rooted within the company. Not having any one walking in the door and upgrades who shouldn't even been there!! The training standards! Crew schedulers pushing line indoc captains to sign people off, CP threatening those there who stand up saying it's going to affect their chances at AC. Deeper problem than what we saw two nights ago. That place will kill people! Just a matter of time.
From what I've heard, they lined up with the edge lights and took off. Had major engine damage, thought it was a rudder issue and return to land. Major engine overhaul needed.
So don't listen to everything you read on the media. THE GGN spokeslady has a way to turning and twisting the truth. She rolled into GGN on her high horse a few years back and frankly she's been the worst!
Anyways mods, delete this thread now. Cover up the truth as usual.
