Just figured it out. You applied at NJA, got turned down and you are now bitter. You're an older guy (+60) looking for some validation in your life and since you did not get it at NJA, you come here and toss little verbal hand grenades. I am guessing your tune would have changed had you been successful in getting past the..."ummm...but no thanks" part of the process.
Sorry you did not find a home here, try again later when we sign a decent contract. I am stepping to the job you really wanted!
From a PM in December "Great post. I've had my major airline career and got so sick of it, i retired at Age 60. Currently an MD-80 Captain and Check Airman in training for a 121 freight outfit.
Got my app package in with NJ. Hoping to be yanking gear for you soon..."
