LargeMarge didn't disappear, just waiting for the dust to settle. First of all, I posted from my individual experience and preservative, not claiming to 'know it all.' I stand by my comments on scheduling. I did some fact checking and since my first flight on OE, only 18% of my flights have been on time. Just my experience, not indicative of the operation as a whole. My worst delays have been exculsive of IROPs, however. As far as my 'belligerence' comment, it was just my impression of the tone of our MEC. I have always been a member in good standing with ALPA and I also give to the BPF. So flame away I guess. Just not drinking the blue juice yet, nor am I opposed to drinking it in the future. Take it as you will.
