As far as the Gods gift to the cockpit, whatever. I dont see that at all. Almost everyone just comes to work, tries to have a good time and do their job right.
I've had the pleasure of working at several regionals (2 of which because DAL can't seem to make up their mind which group of "crazy loose cannons" they want operating their aircraft). I can count on one hand also the amount of people I don't want to work with, not because they are bad pilots, but rather because they are just bad people. I have never seen, in my short career, anyone do anything unsafe or ignorant. Nothing that would raise any flags to me, or any mistake that I know someone else in some other cockpit at some other airline isn't capable of making. 99% of the people I have come into contact with have been good pilots who make reasonable decisions when it comes down to it. And that same percentage of pilots come to work, try to have a good time and do their job right also. There is not one thing, mistake, difference, or ability that a DAL pilot has that any other relatively experienced pilot has. They just make more money doing it.
