You tend to come on here and stir things up, then disappear for a while. Now I realize that this is a free board, and you have every right to be here, but I've just always been curious whether you're an airline pilot, and it seems that you've confirmed it-- you're not.
As to answering your questions-- No, I don't think so. I feel little need to justify or defend my thoughts on those matters to most people, and much less to you.
Sorry to burst your bubble but I do work for the airlines. That's something I'll freely admit. Just not who I work for.
I didn't expect you to actually answer. More or less for the reason that you probably don't have a good explanation as to why it would matter if I was a regional FO or a widebody CA. I do find it funny though that you feel little need to justify or defend your thoughts on here. Isn't that what this board basically does....justify or defend peoples thoughts about whats going on in this industry?
What is the firsthand/practical knowledge that I'm missing? Because I've seen firsthand how the outsourcing has hurt the current group of pilots as well as any future pilots. This is not an industry I would recommend to anyone because of the outsourcing that has taken place in the last 20 years.
