Exactly. This guy made us all look bad. Not just compass, but airline pilots as a whole. He betrayed that "brotherhood" someone mentioned earlier. The line needs to be drawn somewhere. He decided to do to this, he can suffer the consequences. I feel saddened for his family, but why should I feel bad for him? He is a drug trafficking felon. He knew the risks.

I'm done talking about this.
That's not even close to a fair comparison. This is felony drug trafficking. That's a 100 levels worse than what you mentioned. I get it. You liked the guy. But comparing what he did misdemeanors, or less is rediculous. Drug trafficking is a very violent, ruthless industry that ruins thousands of families lives, and kills innocent people in the cross fire. He directly, and intentionally contributed to that.

I agree with you man. Drug trafficking is really bad. I didn't like the moral character argument, but I should have let it go. Av8r is right, let's let this go.

You're all still my homies. I think republic will buy us and make us all flight attendants since we can't even do night visuals into SJC

I whole heartedly agree with Bobby LS. I never met the guy, but I especially feel bad for his family. And to be honest I feel bad for him as well.
What he did is not right, but making a joke of it makes you seem extremely immature. It looks bad upon the whole pilot group.

How do you know it was "trafficking". Could have been for personal use. Some people like to buy in bulk. Just saying.

Surprised Word302 hasn’t jumped in yet to tell us all about how mainline SkyWest doesn’t have to wear hats.



It would mess up their selfie stick hair, it’s in the contract

Nah just Compass pilots have used a selfie stick to take a picture from the flight deck on a taxiway. Then they put it on Instagram

It's a good thing they were able to flow
