Can you back that last claim up? Or is this something you just pulled from the foul recess that you passed yesterdays beef jerky through?
I (and most of us) have no disrespect for RJ pilots, so that's another spurious claim. Many of us spent a decade in the bowels of the airline world, so we know what your lifestyle entails. Personally, I just hate small RJs and what airline management has used them for and how bloody uncomfortable they are. Well, more than that actually but you get the idea. My animus is not directed at the guys and gals flying them who aspire to a better job and contract. Those who are willing to fly our planes for significantly less money are free to go self-procreate however. Unless you want to fly RJs forever, our fight is your fight. The more we make, the more you make. So why all the ire for us? Cheap airlines have been around for 30 years now. DAL, UAL, and AA are still in business despite all the negative prognostications. And doing pretty well I might add.
Maybe you could pay someone to post for you on here as well? They might do a better job and not make you appear quite so petulant.
