Well, my personal theory on not diverting is that no Southwest captain

So he kills someone at Midway instead? Poor judgement.

Wouldn't be the first time a pilot killed someone because of poor judgement.


Was it American at Little Rock not long ago? Several on the
plane..possibly the pilot as well, died.

First officer survived, captain was killed. I went to school with his
daughter...it certainly ends the blame game when you know the people
involved.

But let's be honest...there's so much poor judgement and poor decision
making out there, and it's not confined to aviation. And hindsight is
20/20, you know? Only thing we can do is to try to learn from the
mistakes others make.
