Jerry, I could listen to a dozen episodes of a presentation like yours, and never tire of hearing your stories. In short, it's what I expected to hear of those development years between the Dash 80 and the MAX. But, it's quite rare, and such a treat. Thank you for all you've done, and thank you for sharing these fascinating details. I hope the museum has you back!

Nice presentation. It’s wonderful how much thought he spends on an answer. And for me the first time I hear some one explains that there is a difference between old style pilots and the new league of system operators. Just a note on the 737 max ..Mcas is an old system that never failed a KC tanker.

True pilots / best airplanes - slowly disappearing vs ever evolving ? As always - never ending story - at least I hope so .. Thank you!

Interesting talk on a fascinating variant of the venerable Queen of the Skies. The comment on his first stall in a B777 at 1:11:04 was eye-opening for sure!

A pilot once told me that he had long ago forgotten how to fly an aircraft but he could type 85 words per minute.

What an interesting view of a very specialized aircraft, including it's development, with some very open and honest comments on pilot training, thank you Mr. Whites.
