P-8 overshoots runway in K-Bay

They’re uninjured. What other kind of “update“ would there be prior to the completion of the investigations and FNAEBs?
Right, so all the things we shouldn’t be talking about, or encouraging while the investigation is underway.
Firing up their American Airlines applications…
Ryan Air seems more like it.
Nope. Military mishaps aren’t deal breakers for the airlines… I know of several people who totaled airframes with AA employee numbers, as well as some at other airlines.
As was I… I’ve flown with dudes who’ve killed people in mishaps in .mil who fly airbuses now… There is an extreme forgiveness for military mishaps in airline hiring (at least since 2015) provided the mishap pilot can articulate lessons learned and now they grew.
On the other side of the coin, there’s a 0 defect mentality in the VP community and sliding off the end in a public spectacle is a great embarrassment. A 737 can land short field land on a wet runway less than 7k ft fairly well with max auto brakes so unless the board can find close to 100% aircraft systems failure with no pilot error as causal factors, this crew (at least the PPC and whoever was in the seat with them) is probably hosed career wise. Their best bet will be to pursue their aviation careers on the outside.
Until CNAF is a VP guy, that community’s vibe towards mishaps isn’t particularly relevant.
Of course it is relevant to the future of the mishap aircrew. Community vibes will influence the career trajectory of the crew in question (FITREPs, orders etc).
Depends on their Skipper more than community vibes.
. . . . . not to mention the influence of the respective CPRW and CPRG. But you already know this as a prior VP bubba
Shit, we have dudes balling up Rhinos because they forget a switch going on to be Skippers. I don't think it's a deal breaker for those staying in either. Not as long as guys keep running to the airlines and the pool of those left behind gets thinner and thinner.
Eh there’s a guy in our community that had an oopsie with a P-3 and he made major command.
