Is this technique or procedure?

Did it add anything to the conversation other than "I can take a dump on one of our own publicly because I have the inside scoop, but I can't share the inside scoop..."
Disgusting.

I agree with you but in that situation there is more to the story. I believe there is a lawsuit that she didn't recieve proper LCA training. A lot of finger pointing.
It also raises big questions with our TA1 ... we are doubling the number of instructors and check airman by throwing money at them. Are we going to keep that same level of instructor or check airman going forward? The instructors are already pulling down big money and the pool of good people that want to do that are doing it. I fear we are pulling in mediocre to bad instructors who are there for the paycheck. Could we be pulling in better people from other bases if you improve job share or month to month options or qol improvements? I don't know but the people that are good at that type of thing aren't very plentiful.

I was shocked at the massive insulting kick in the guts TA1 was in regards to what they offered LCA’s. Especially after SK has repeatedly mentioned that they are going to fix the dismal override LCA’s are putting up with currently. If that was managements idea of a fix we are SOL.
I/E (PI) pay was off the charts good. I’m thinking MH being a career PI might have influenced that a bit. But the truth of the matter is, if people are taking a pay cut by being at TK they aren’t going to stay there except for a few core folks who have built their lives around the TK schedule. The PUP thing was a management attempt to slide in a stop gap and drastically reduce their costs at the training center. Within 5 years TK was going to be staffed by retired pilots making 1/3rd of what a PI makes now.
ANY LEC rep who voted yes on this TA must be recalled NOW!

If you're so "in the know" then why would you even post that first comment?

"Never should’ve had it in the first place."
Served no purpose except to provide a segway for a self aggrandizing display of how "in the know" you are, at the expense of one of our own.
YOU should be embarrassed.

The FO on the flight told me what happened, a few days later at the schoolhouse. He was a new hire, as I recall. The Check airman was new and described to me as a AAA pilot.
The narrative in the NTSB report differs substantially from what the FO told me.
Part of the reason for this was the stupid upset recovery technique being trained at the time.

not sure you were talking to the correct pilot.
