He has yet to respond, and that little question mark (?), it indicates my questioning of what he actually meant. Even so his post shows a thought process that leans toward facilitating poor CRM, even if it was a jumpseater.

One of the many problems with imternet forums is the fact that people rush to judgement and shoot their mouths off even quicker. My CRM is just fine thank you. In fact my standard jumpseat brief is to ask the jump seater to speak up if they see anything they don't like. That said, delivery is a LARGE part of the message. You weren't there. He was an insistent tool despite being mistaken. With that, I'm through posting here on what's become flightinfoV2.0. Perhaps one day we'll have a respectful forum for us to exchange info and ideas. Fly safe!

(Note: this is a possible re-post from sometime in the past, but worth repeating IMHO)
TOAD (Tool on Any Day):
Any employer (or surrogate for same) who wants a candidate to purchase their own type rating, esp. in today's job market. Like this one...
Sigma Aviation Services for Korean Airlines
Dublin, Ireland
blah, blah, blah
Minimum Requirements:
- current B747-400/800 or B767 type rating
- be prepared to purchase own B777 type rating prior to training
TOTD: anyone who would actually do this

Similarly nice to get done with long day and occasionally get out of the MD groupthink bubble.
BTW I'd say the SR22 is the new doctor-killer. A little too much plane for many.
I learned the very hard way the first winter. I'd land and the things would shake like Miley Cyrus's butt. Now I take them off at first hint of snow anywhere. Still they look pretty sharp IMO and I get an extra up to 5 kts or so.
