ITEMS OF INTEREST

A powerful testimonial by a crash-surviving former commuter airline pilot is presented. This former pilot's story is moving when you consider the courage it must have taken for him to come forth with it. This pilot admits to poor decision making during the ill-fated flight in which six of his passengers died. Read it while you consider the motivations for his decisions at the time. Then consider any possibilities for training that would target the root causes for these wrong turns in decision making. Could such an individual be an asset to the cause, or would he be shunned by the "it won't happen to me" crowd?
