Jumpseating in First Class. That must have been a weird experience for an AA pilot.

USAPA is using this accident to legitimize themselves. I think it's actually in pretty bad taste. They've been trying to ride Sulley's coat tails since that plane hit the water. If that would have been a West crew, they would have been trying spin it differently...about the lack of experience, how a "true" USAIR pilot would have made it back to LGA....pretty much anything that would help the company get the pilots fired. All things being equal, any orgainization skill they showed came from years of training with ALPA...(and I'm not a real fan of ALPA).
 
Say what you want about USAPA, but they represented their pilots well and their pilots represented USAPA well. Very impressive all the way around.
 
The mechanic's sign-off was "could not duplicate.":rolleyes:
