Or how about this:

Back in 2003 when the other pilots were giving huge concessions, the airlines were operating a lot of older airplanes that burnt more fuel. Thus, they had high costs anyway, and the pilots shouldn't have caved to company pressure - they should have said "just get more fuel efficient airplanes instead of asking us for cuts". Thus, they are spineless and the shame of the industry.




I'm sooooo scared.



Actually, the Westair pilots did, bless their hearts. Didn't you notice the way regional pilot pay spiked afterwards?



No, I missed it. Show me (...I asked, expecting no response).



Not likely. Only an idiot would think that interviews have no value.



Once again, pay attention before responding. DEN and MKE have some of the lowest fares in the country. You are playing flame bait, aren't you? No pilot could have this loose of a grasp of logic.
You're truly clueless. If this is what you need to believe in order to look at yourself in the mirror, then so be it. Your actions have earned universal disrespect. Your surrender will only lead to more demands...and soon. Over and out.
