New SWA chief of training, a good thing?

[scoreboardII]

So any info on the new guy, good or bad? Cleath.

 

[ATLplt]

An ex-AirTran guy is now head of all SWA training? I must have missed this memo.

 

[PanPan]

It's a good thing from what I've heard.

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

He's a good guy, and knows what he's doing. Real good with technology.

 

[fletch717]

Maybe he will make it so "the flows" are actually flows, and the memory items aren't a Shakespearian play to be recited.

 

[Ty Webb]

He's a good guy, and probably represents your best bet to get Int'l stuff approved before 1/1/2015. No big ego or axe to grind.

 

[SWA717]

This is great news! Hopefully this will be a giant leap forward in getting SWA up to par with the technologies that AT utilized in the Flight Ops arena.

 

[Just thinking]

This in addition to Jamie and Sean making everything work for the IPAD interface....

Thank you I got my laughs in for the week.

We have definetly got some talent on the AT side that got us out of the dark ages cheaply and very quickly. Good on SWA for recognizing this.

I'm just hoping its someone who can publish a read before fly without the very next day needing to recall because it has errors.

Yeah, because we just moved our headquarters to the US from Kazakhstan.

Canyonblue- thats too defensive man. I love swa. Drink the koolaid every night- but flight ops training hasn't been stellar in my short 6 years- Not awful, we have a great flyer culture and I've met some of the best pilots online -but not a great system yet, and dependent on the individual pilots and instructors effort and expertise to get it done-
I welcome some fresh eyes- and if AT pilots, who had plenty of negatives to say about their previous mgmt, say good things on this man- that should speak volumes-

No ego or axe to grind sounds like a good leader. Not a threat to swa at all
