I was stripped of the chance at an airline career after 911. After spending the life savings of myself and my wife for basic and advanced training, I had my interview at American Eagle on Sept. 17th, 2001. Needless to say, I did not get a chance to attend that interview. At no point do I ever claim to be an ATP and for you to assume different, go through the trouble of searching my airman's records and insinuate that I was claiming otherwise is unprofessional on your part.

As others have stated you claim to be called Captain is laughable and quite sad. Did you not see anything wrong with ordering a pilot uniform with 4 bars and putting them on a shirt right out of the package. As a "pilot" do you not understand the tradition of
earning your bars. Not only do you allow your employees to call you Captain but you actually picked a screen name on an aviation forum that says Captain.
Your excuse on why you were never a real 121 pilot is weak.
Do us all a favor, take off the bars and change your screen name to something like "FirstOfficerWantabeMike"
Sincerely,
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Juice
