There is a lot of bad hiring going on in airlines. In just the past few months we’ve seen…
1. That Pilot Induced Oscillation hard three-bounce landing was by a guy marked “do not rehire” by the airline
2. United Airlines “equity” hiring
3. FAA wants to hire people with memtal problems
4. United Airlines CEO is a drag queen
5. Flight attendant videoing young passengers in the bathroom
6. Plug blowing out of a fuselage at 16,000 feet — poor or no QA
That’s just off the top of my head.
How can you NOT see a pattern of serious hiring problems in the airline industry?
Thanks. I hadn’t heard about the bounce and bend incident because I don’t watch TV. I have no doubt that the incidents you mention are ever growing signs of the insanity in this country lately.
I was only trying to convey that if you haven’t flown or landed an airplane, especially a commercial airliner, that there are several unpredictable and uncontrollable reasons one could ‘bounce’ the aircraft. The incident you speak of, without any further info, sounds like it at least would border on incompetence.
I guess we are rapidly approaching the scenarios given in the movie IDIOCRACY.
