You are not calling my bluff, sir. I intended no animosity towards EITHER pilot group, but rather compassion for BOTH. So calm down. Your reaction(S) are precisely what I was talking about. First of all- I was referring to both groups regarding the effects of stress- I can see how one would not know because I said USAirways pilots and with the situation over there I could mean the entire pilot group or the East side of operations. Having said this, USAirways has a great track record as far as safety if one looks at the empirical evidence alone.In regards to why it was posted here,(frankly I do not know about the voracity of this account. I will say it's not how I hear it but- what I heard was second hand) was that it is no wonder there is so much inappropriate behavior out of the cockpit with this level of stress at this company which I absolutely do believe will spill over into the work environment as well. While I realize that pilots should be professional, it is hard to know what will prove to be the proverbial straw. As far as not flying when one feels unsafe- I doubt that many pilots can really afford to take time off. I do stand by my opinion that it is not safe and that it is just a matter of time before something unsatisfactory happens.
