No more are FO just doing " Gear up, Flaps up, Shut up" and calling us half wingers is looking down on regional pilots. No wonder there is so much hate...
Old generation? I’m a millennial. Half winger is a reference to being a probationary pilot at an Alpa carrier. You get your full wing when you get off probation. And believe me we take care of our half wingers. We love half wingers. It means we’re hiring.
