Its only not a recession because our antiquated textbook definition of recession is GDP based and that includes government spending and ignores inflation that isn't correctly/sufficiently reported anymore due to political reasons anyway.

We have a very long way to go before we see a real, sustainable recovery. A long way to go. Before that happens, things could get very interesting economically. If we want to experience reasonable sustained growth as a pilot group anytime soon, we will have to re-interlalize outsourced flying, ruthlessly fight start ups and cabotage, win customers and lobby hard to end the subsidy (direct and indirect) glory days of the foreign carriers.

Of the top 5 articles in the Air Force Times, 40% were positive PR for gay issues. For a second there, I thought you had rick rolled me into reading the Village Voice.

Okay, if I posted this at DALPA, I would have to warn you that there is adult language. Here at APC, you are on your own.
