In reply to the discussion: Delta Airlines bribed doctor $74,000 to declare pilot mentally ill for reporting safety problems. [View all]I guess I should not be surprised though. It seems like the corrupt doctor is the only one who had any real accountability here but he only lost his license. I found out my brothers GP is a fraud which I knew already. He was RX medication through a pharmacy in another state fraudulently and receiving kickbacks. But instead of being charged with anything he paid $125,000 fine and did not lose his license. The legal document was published online.
I have always hated flying and I dont fly anymore at all. I was once on a plane that almost crashed. I was coming back from Ohio after visiting my brother and we stopped in Pittsburgh. We were approaching to land in Pittsburgh, we could see the runway, and all of a sudden we went back up in the air and nobody said anything- about 10 minutes later the pilot who sounded very angry said as you may have noticed we had to abort our landing because there was another plane on the runway. After that we flew around for about half an hour before we could land and the flight attendants were all very upset, you could visibly see it. I had to run to get my connecting flight and I had taken my beloved kitty at the time with me. All I could think of was that she wouldve died if we had not been very lucky, the pilot definitely saved our lives that night.
