True, I agree with that statement.

I''ll you this, if I am stuck on an aircraft for 7-10 hours, I think that I will lose it and I have been involved in aviation for about 20 years.. :rawk:

First of all, I had the career so yes it did happen to me. More than once. We got parked out one wintery day at Logan (BOS) and I raised holy hell on ops frequency until they sent a couple pax buses out to get my folks. Whaddya know next summer they park us out with an inop APU - dying of heat this time. Once again, I start raising hell on the ops frequency. A familiar voice comes back, "didn't I talk to you last winter?" :)

After each event I called my chief pilot immediately, and explained to him what happened. No job lost, no money risked, just having the balls to do what was right, and not being worried about a carpet dance.

In both cases the CP said "Thanks John, you did the right thing."

Well, I'm very proud of you. You were in a situation where they could get a bus out to you. It doesn't take a genius in that case.

You don't think that, while sitting on an airplane full of passengers for hours, we weren't trying everything possible? It wasn't an option. You weren't in the same situation I was. Again, hope you never are.

I'm sorry - I didn't know you were one of the pilots involved.
