The quality of training was always my top priority. You can't put a price on the best training. There is no possibility of a non-Delta pilot giving the same quality of instruction. Not even when they get to ride the jumpseat once a year to observe and hope to stay relevant.
And I never saw fiefdoms at NWA.
