Amtrak's new CEO has a record of downplaying safety concerns that allegedly contributed to a fatal plane crash
Even before the crash, several pilots told Business Insider that they thought an accident was inevitable.
In March, a month after the crash, Flynn told Business Insider in a statement that the complaints were "misleading and inaccurate, and inappropriately connect the Flight 3591 tragedy with ongoing contract negotiations." NTSB investigators wrote, from talking with a check airman, or pilot trainer, at one of Aska's previous jobs, that, that he "was making very frantic mistakes, lots and lots of mistakes, and did a lot of things wrong but did not recognize this was a problem. He thought he was a good pilot never had any problems and thought that he should be a captain. He could not evaluate himself and see that he did not have the right stuff.
Pressure to scale quickly in order to secure business can lead to a decline in safety and hiring standards.
