What would have happened if nobody of the passengers in F agreed to change voluntarily. Would the pilots have insisted that ground staff use FORCE against the passengers and take them out of their seats (remember the UA case, where an innocent passenger was injured by security when they used force to free his seat for a off duty pilot??)?

that the pilot goes now public on FB against the apology of TG's president makes things even worse! what the hell does this guy think!
now it is obvious, that he needs to be fired!
