He's not badmouthing the 9E pilot group, and he's really spot-on in his analysis.

Its the delivery that is somewhat lacking.

When 9E pilots really get ****ed off and start a safety campaign on their own initiative en masse, you'll likely see movement because of the pressure it would place on management. Until the pilot group unifies in that manner (and that's nothing the MEC can suggest) as NWA and ASA did, don't expect much to change.

You wanna know what would make every regional come to a crawl in any given day? PUT THE CELL PHONES DOWN.
