Jonathan only has the job because his dad built the engine. Nepotism rears it’s ugly head once again.

Was Johnathon the second choice until the first choice guy died in a test flight, or did that appear to me in a dream?

Jonathan Archer and AG Robinson were both in the NX test pilot program. AG was the prime candidate for captaincy but was passed over for Jonathan 6 months before launch date. AG died afterwards while climbing a mountain. He was going to be captain of NX-02 Columbia but died before she launched.
