In the mean time, you guys have also been acting like Brakes is nuts for remembering things the way he does. But, maybe not.
I got hired by Northwest in 1995 and I am thankful that we weren't treated by Delta pilots they way some of you have been discounting and dismissing the Air Tran guys.
I never heard anyone call NWA a lesser airline 4-5 years AFTER the merger. Sure, it was heated at first. But, 4 years later, we were concentrated on getting a new contract, not diminishing the other side of the SLI.
Maybe some of this inflicted pain should be attributed elsewhere and away from me.
You're a good guy, Oscar. I remember you called out some of your own guys for disrespecting a Frontier pilots wife. I'm sure if anyone can smooth things over as an honest broker, it's you.
Good luck.
On the other shoe, do you still run into NWA pilots who constantly complain about how they perceive that Delta screwed them or never pass up an opportunity to tell you who they're going to "get even" some day? And if you you did, what would you say to that pilot?
I can say that I ran into more than one dissatisfied NWA pilot back when the situation was still raw. I don't go around trying to pick at the scab or needle you guys every chance I get.
I get that your picture was light hearted and I thought it was funny, but it would have been funnier if the guy had a puppy he was going to hit with the hammer.
