That was a little weird and uncalled for, kinda made the intorduction and the first few minutes a little awkard, but I didn't let it get to me. As long as too much of that crap isnt going on then I think there is mutual respect out there between the two groups.
Maybe they were just saying that cause the capt might not have liked being on the Saab out of dtw. Could have been a base issue, not an aircraft issue. But who knows. Maybe just an off the wall comment and neither of them thought you would be offended by it.
