I cannot imagine how insufferable you must be to fly with if you really do this in the cockpit. You have some things to teach us senior pilots, but you have so much more to learn from us at this stage in your very new career. You'll never learn it because you're too busy "educating" us

I make them because somebody has to tell you. Your fellow senior crewmembers are probably just trying to get along with you and enhance CRM, so they tolerate your "education" attempts. If we fly together, I will tell you directly that you'll do yourself a favor by closing your mouth and opening your ears for a while.



I did not describe you as an RJ lifer. I described you as a victim of the hatred and vitriol OF the RJ lifers. Those guys are compelled to pass on generational hatred for their own personal shortcomings. They feel it is the only thing they have left. It is up to people like you to get beyond what you've been taught during the very formative years of your aviation career by some truly awful
people.

A whale Capt telling a junior pilot what to do. This is a FIRST, right? The senior telling the junior to listen and shut your mouth....They know what is right.... I listened to the rantings of a whale Capt TELLING me what was THE priority for our upcoming contract: better medical insurance for the retiring guys. These are the guys that have the largest frozen pension, that were probably red book guys that had a faster progression in their career and may have been Captains on the whale for many years, and who took advantage of the age 60 rule while current pilots cannot. Quit complaining Carl, we don't feel sorry for you. Junior pilots like ACL need to educate you, you're not a widebody PIC on this board. Junior people who have been crapped on outnumber you senior guys.
