Wow, I normally don't post, but the idiocy of this post is just too much.
First, was this employee a pilot, an intern, a flight attendant, management, etc or what? Do you know? If he/she was a pilot, then I can assure you that their opinion doesn't reflect "how these people think." It does reflect how that ONE, UNO, SINGULAR, INDIVIDUAL person thinks. I am a RAH pilot so I'm just guessing here, but I probably have a little more insight into "how these people think" than you do. I am not happy about the 190's (I did not and will not bid for that flying) and I pray that someone outbids RAH for Frontier. Everyone of my peers that has expressed their opinion to me, is not happy about any of this. THAT would be closer to "how these people think." But, I still will not say that is how all think, because I would guess that there are a few that are happy about all of this. There are idiots in every group, as you have so obviously demonstrated; both by what that employee said and your post. Overhearing ONE conversation does not give you insight into a general consensus. Using your logic, if I overheard ONE of your company's employees stating racist views, I could advertise on a public forum that you and your peers are all racists. Would that be an accurate and fair statement? How do you feel about being an unsafe, dangerous, inexperienced, poorly trained regional airline pilot? What's that? You're not? But you are, according to your logic. Remember, the recent Colgan accident? We all violate sterile cockpit. We all don't have the training or experience to recover from a stall. We all would have crashed if we were in that Q400 that night. Of course that isn't true, but you are the one that is painting in huge, broad strokes when the situation required a 00 paint brush. I would guess that you revel in posting inflammatory comments. It's childish and unprofessional.
