There is absolutely nothing wrong with a pilot who came post 911 trying to lift up this job, be it with posts, work, rep calls, talking with other pilots, etc. Everyone, and I mean everyone in the pilot seat of a jet has a role in that effort.

T never flew at swa, but he is a well known poster on the swa threads. In that light, he is probably one of the last people that should think current delta pilots aren't allowed to have an opinion on the direction of their company and contract.

Just my observation.
I have nothing against his opinion, except that I have gotten tired of his constant berating of those that are actually doing the lifting. Every single post has some sort of dig. I guess you can tune it out. Or maybe even approve of his constant tone. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

As far as being "well known" on the SWA threads, I have maybe 5 or 6 there that I can recall. A few of them were even asking for information, not lob grenades although it is kinds fun over there when they are being lobbed at someone else. When they are constantly fired within the circle though, that's different. At least in my eyes. (And I don't post on SWA anymore) So I guess you find it acceptable for him to fire within the circle post after post after post, and see it only as a love for DAL and a desire to foster unity.

No, you misunderstand. My input is that while responding to his posts you shouldn't promote a view that says some pilots can't cite sacrifices which occurred prior to their coming on property. It's divisive and at the end of the day undermines unity. You're trying to avoid this fact with your non sequiturs. But if you're still of this opinion and can't find your way to seeing my point, I await your next excuse as nothing more from me will convince you otherwise.

Looks like few are taking Ferd and Denny's advice. I feel like banging my head against the wall after skimming the last few pages. Read the first couple lines "yep, same crap" next post... same thing.... same thing. OH MY GOSH.

No, you shouldn't just let it go. Those kind of people need to be set straight!

Requesting help from moderators. Every time I reply to a post, this post from GG keeps getting attached. What am I doing wrong?

Is this the secret to flying a 737? Eat bananas and never crap?

Please explain. Are you saying that new hires sacrificed more than those that were furloughed because we kept our percentage?
