Have you ever received the finger from a Mesa pilot while taxiing out? Have you ever heard a Mesa pilot call you a scab on the radio? Have you ever been denied a jumpseat while trying to go home on a Mesa plane and have the Captain tell you to get off his f'ing plane before he calls security? Have you had a Mesa pilot in your crashpad pour water all over the beds of Comair pilots? NO SIR YOU HAVE NOT
All of these things have happened to Freedom pilots and every single one of them has been proven to come from a Comair pilot. This isn't just a "select few" disgruntled pilots at Comair. This is a HUGE problem
Why does this bickering even happen at the regional level? If you step back and look, we fight like we're 5 years old. Why are we even wasting our time fighting? This is so childish but we will continue to do it.
