Does anyone else see a potential conflict of interest here?


I have to believe that he will no longer be a UAL captain when
he starts his job as COO. So, no, his current job doesn't present
a conflict of interest.

Let us hope he understands all aspects of GA operations throughout
the country instead of being a mindless zombie who thinks that
all flying is hub/spoke.

(COO) of the FAA's Air Traffic Organization.
