Fair question. The "typical" Delta pilot is someone who you can enjoy drinking a beer with on a layover, isn't uptight, may not agree with your opinion, but when disagreeing offers a reasonable counterpoint, then says "another round."

Usually the guy actually likes flying airplanes for a living and doesn't apologize for that (I swear sometimes the anti-establishment groupthink on some of these web boards seems to equate not working with virtue, but actually showing up for work with a good attitude as vice). However, he also has a life outside of airplanes as well. He doesn't spend a lot of time on web boards constantly equating the DAL pilot group to a bunch of "Stockholm Syndrome" zombies.
