We are where we are. To fix it either we need to work together.
I agree....however to work together, we need to treat each other as equals...I still see a lot of patronizing "we are superior" attitude from many of your colleagues.
The Colgan incident is the exception, not the rule. As you know better than most, at ASA, many pilots are more experienced than many at the majors. We have a great safety record...better than some majors. I have had more than one former ASA pilot tell me that the ASA training department is better than what they experience at the majors...including Delta and Southwest.
Mutual respect as equals is the first step...
