If you don't know already, delta pilots have that reputation and you are feeding that bad stereotype because there are in fact great guys there. Although, i have sat on more than a few DAL jumpseats where all i heard for three hours was sortie this and squadron that. I know you guys must have hobbies and families right?
Woops....Looks like I stumbled too far into your cave. I did not mean to upset you. I certainly did not mean to represent the DAL pilot group in a negative manner. Apparently you don't think we look good in our cute double breasted jackets and WWII era hats.

I can honestly say our pilot group is a terrific group of folks. I would love to buy you a beer and apologize for my remarks, but I am stuck in Afghanistan. See you on the JS some time....
