Good for him. And I'm betting he's pretty senior to pull that and get away with it...

I've read that Cap'n Dave was "encouraged" by his employer to stop blogging. Which is too damn bad. He didn't write nasty things about the airline. He is one of the better aviation writers out there. I hope he does a book at some point.

I was "encouraged" by my manager to stop blogging about ATC. Hence why my Flying Penguin blog went dormant.
