   I can find no reports of the passengers sueing the Pilot directly..  They   
   filed suit against the company Alaska Airlines and Boeing.   
      
   I find it hard to believe that the Pilot would take Boeings words personally,   
   as "improperly maintained or misused," is a wildly wide open statement which   
   could implicate everyone from MX, Catering, Flight Attendants, ETC."   
      
   Gonna be a bit difficult to show how his reputation was personally damaged..    
   Sounds more like someone wants to retire early.
