Sick pilots cleared for flying

   How would you like to fly on an airline where the pilots say the following:

   Whether a pilot is sick or tired, airline managers "will harass you until you give up and
fly."

   "It was a battle calling in fatigued. They would do anything they could to talk you out of
it. They just want to get the plane moving."

   "The chief pilot called and started giving me a hard time. And I was just coming out of
general anesthesia."

   That's what pilots and former pilots at Colgan Air, which operated the doomed Continental
Connection Flight 3407 that crashed in Charence in February, have to say.

   So again: How would you like to fly on an airline where the pilots say such things?

If you have stage four cancer in the Buffalo Fire Department the City of Buffalo will harass you to come to do support work until you give up or die.

If you have an occupational cancer in the Buffalo Fire Department the City of Buffalo takes the stance that a firefighter is not injured from the same type of cancer injuries that killed firefighters in the 911 clean up.

redsbyny, do you think you could stay on topic? Paladino as mayor would have nothing to do with whether or not airline pilots fly sick.

And sometimes they die on the job, they're so sick or overworked!
