I am going out there and putting a post. First, to be honest I only got to page 4 and then skipped to end of the forum. I have used these forums and others for a long time. When they used to be for legit questions and answers and some networking. Now it seems in forums like this one, by the time you get 2 pages into it is way off the original question.

I like when people mention their airline has a "strong pilot group". That is definitely a good thing. Remember when no matter who you worked for you were all buddies. I know tons of retired guys who flew Pan Am, TWA, and all those guys who turned in Delta and American, and guess what??? Till this day I never heard one of them ***** and moan about each other as pilots, maybe the MANAGEMENT (CEOs and others) but never Never NEVER against one each other.

Things will get better on the regional side of aviation once (like mention in this forum) minimums get raised. McDs worker doesn't make nearly what the winner of Hell's Kitchen will make :-)!. But look at all that ****e those guys have to put up with. But do you notice, Ramsey always opens a bottle with them.
