Even with a flawless record and 19 years flight experience, I am overlooked. I have come to accept it. I am coming here because I chose to, and other carriers have snubbed their noses (probably in great part because HR runs their shows and is a general trainwreck with their matrix paper formulas) at my abilities as an aviator, a teamplayer and human being. I dont have any issues or hang-ups in my background, but my point is, people come to places like this for several reasons which may be unseen or just unlucky. Its not always the person.

Most of Connie K's guys and gals I know are exceptional folks and fantastic pilots. Many are there not because they couldn't hack it at the Majors; but because they don't want to run the Major Airline Goat Rodeo.
Also, how many Airline owners have raced Top Fuel Dragsters? Rock on Connie K!
