Rumor has it.....
Divided the pilots up by alphabet and assigned each group to an ACP. Still waiting for the cubicle commandos to communicate the change to the crew force. Guess if you want to work for the SCP you have to come from the schoolhouse. Nuthin like understanding intimately what it's like to fly the line full time when you are considering disciplinary steps against a pilot............

Put yourself in SJ's shoes and decide for yourself who you'd hire...a guy you had worked with who had an established reputation; who had been endorsed by guys you knew and respected, or an unknown line pilot whom you had never heard anything about.

Not sure who you are, MEMA300, but it's obvious you know me. In any case, I agree with you that those in management or training who are there forever are prone to losing touch with reality, but still disagree with "hamfisted" insinuating that those in training or management positions do not have intimate knowledge of line flying.
His references were:
1. That you have to come from the schoolhouse to work for the SCP, and;
2. "Nuthin like understanding intimately what it's like to fly the line full time when you are considering disciplinary steps against a pilot............"
That sarcasm was read loud and clear and I think it's (expletive deleted at moderators request). He's implying that those who reach positions of responsibility in training or management don't have an intimate understanding of line flying...although I can't deny that there are some who fit that mold...And I understand your point about the incestuous nature of management. I don't agree with it, but I understand why it is. That is what I was discussing here.
