AA guys, let me tell you something about the west guys I know. I have never had a personal bad experience with one. The worst personal interactions have been snubs, no hand shakes etc. I have met several new friends and have enjoyed my time with them. A former roommate from commuter days is a west management pilot and I'd put him up there with anybody.
Most of the east pilots I have met have been friendly and professional. Like you I've been snubbed. The FO on a flight I was jumpseating on wouldn't acknowledge me when I said hello in the cockpit. For some reason we were delayed and the captain actually came back into the cabin and talked to me for a while, real first class guy.
