If you had a grandson or granddaughter who wanted to become a pilot, what exactly would you want to leave behind for them?
Do you want a: "Thanks granddad.

New, I was just responding to Nu's (you guys confuse me sometimes
) enumerated expectations. I used current experience to show that for the most part, his expectations have been met. The others, I believe, are either unreasonable, like health care, or emotional political statements masquerading as expectations.
As for what I want for the profession as a whole, I am with Bar. Unity. Only by unifying all the disparate pilot groups flying Delta passengers, we are at the mercy of lower cost providers.
