The great news is, no one was killed and only 23 were hurt (sorry about the pets). Sometimes the gods are with you.
I anxiously await the NTSB report. I wouldn't be a shock if this spells the end of LL.
Wow, genius. You figured it out. Some operators pay more than others.
What the hell justifies your arrogant nose-high view of the employees? Does it smack you in the gut that they don't make as much as you, or is there some other reason for your chutzpah?
A simple "glad no one was killed" will suffice, in light of the fact that the aircraft is just barely cool.
I will say this: it's attitudes like yours, and people like you, that truly make me sick. In fact, it's your special kind of lofty pride that led me to start posting in the first place, many years ago. I don't say that to a lot of folks, but your attitude leaves me wanting to vomit in our direction. You truly disgust me.
