If that particular thinking isn’t shared by the pilot group then shame on the management team for putting it up, it’s trashy and tasteless at best. If you don’t want an immature fight then don’t start one. I can also tell you with certainty that would never be placed on HAL property whether we were a 15,000 pilot group out to get everyone or the 800 pilot group with a niche that we are. Take it for what it is and I appreciate you not being a part of the problem, but to follow in KinAirs footsteps.... You started it.
One of their guys stumbled over to the Alaska boards and tried picking fights there too. A couple of his own came and grabbed him though so all good. All this peacocking is ridiculous. Unless they’re in management and actually have a say in the business decisions, no pilot should be beating their chest and declaring superiority, let alone salivating at the prospect of another pilot groups demise. Last time I checked, we all go to the same places and push pretty much the same buttons to get there. SOME of these SW guys need to pump their brakes and remember how fast this industry can change ones situation.
