1. Then we bitch at the new pilot for not flying the plane to Nirvanaland within minutes

even though it was in a downward death-spiral to Shithole-istan and took all the new pilot's energy just to get the plane under control and away from a crash, and he still managed through heroic measures to bring out three meal services on his own, get the internal temperature back to a comfortable level, re-upholster the seats, and talk a few other substitute pilots through safe landings of their own while friends of the previous pilot screamed at him, tried to block him from the controls, and kept hiding his tools.

2. no

we bitch at the new pilot when, two years later, we're not sure where he is going

4. Replacing the death spiral with a slow glide to Shithole-istan...

...really isn't anything to get excited about.
