Telling they fired Sturckow when he was pretty outspoken such as this:

In another e-mail, in 2019, he urged his fellow test pilots to be more transparent: “Failure to admit mistakes in flight test is a cancer that must be nipped at the bud.” Stucky, whom I wrote about in the magazine in 2018, had been particularly troubled by Mackay and Masucci’s unwillingness to take responsibility for what he perceived to be their mistakes on the July, 2018, flight.

They didn't fire him for the emails, they fired him for publicly bad mouthing the company. There were ~2 years in between.

If internally bad-mouthing the company doesn’t work, what are you left with?

My apologies. Not Sturckow but a different person, Mark "Forger" Stucky.
