I also never complained about not upgrading in 2 yrs or not getting 10 hotels a month for a commute. You may have been raised by hippies protesting at Berkely? Who knows....
As far as DEI. Anyone who doesn't understand why it's a useless tool that is actually making discrimination worse, especially in aviation, is..well...an idiot.
what? Outfly me any day? What does that mean exactly? Do we have an LSO grading our landings? Is that just in Seattle or every station? Is there a 737 aerobatics competition I have missed?
2 year upgrades? I have gone on record multiple times tell others that any airline upgrading in less than 2 years has serious problems. A healthy upgrade timeline is 5-8 years. So no, I don’t want 2 year upgrades. Hotels for commuters is between them and the company.
seems you forgot how this whole thing started. Pilots wanting to furlough fellow pilots so they could make more money. Trying to restrict junior pilots from making extra money so they can make more. Don’t care how well they fly. This is just shameful.
oh, forgot to add, Berkely protesters were Boomers.
