I just dont put any faith in guys flying regional 737's that say International is not their thing when they have absolutley no clue. But i get it. When there is no scope at the bottom and only hostile AMR and DL that will keep 737 pilots, just that for a very longtime, one has to look at life with optimism. I dont blame any AS pilot for seeing things they way they do.
I don't get it either. No dog in this fight but I find it funny that unless you've flown internationally with DL or whoever, people's opinion of international flying is unwarranted. Just let it lie that not everyone has a desire to do such things. I've flown thousands of hours over the pond and don't miss it whatsoever. So yes, I have a "clue" on what it's all about. Does that make my opinion on the matter any more valid? Of course not. I'm pleased that some prefer to do things that plenty view as unfavorable. To each is their own. Why people are so hell bent to convince people that THEIR choice of flying is better than someone else's is beyond me. Carry on..
