Casey did great, he hammered the “holistic” repairs needed and how leaders didnt listen to their employees.

AW looked like a 3rd grader explaining his $#itt¥ group project that the CEO no showed for.

Proud of SS4M.

Casey got the important points across. He represented us well.

Murray should have said that Jordan would have been there, but unfortunately he made reservations on Southwest.

The ACARS messages in flight asking who is operating the flight is unreal. Talk about a complete loss of operational control.

He has a law degree and knows how to address the issues.

As one senator pointed out - Herb would have attended.

Not only that but SWA didn’t send in the written testimony the committee required, and was criticized for it by Sen Markey. The committee got a taste of the condescending dismissiveness of SWA management.
