"violated any of your safe places" ??? LOL

Perhaps you should re-read your post and our replies.

I think you're right that some of the points the OP brings up are a bit whiny/entitled. However, several of his points are straight up valid points for being disgruntled. And once you're disgruntled, all the other little things pile on.

And what is your definition of 'comments still being made'? Because the thread hadn't been officially closed? Ok, that's fine. It's just odd. Particularly with the one sided slant.

Cool story bro

Good lord. We are completing the mission and getting the job done, with no work actions, something our main line brothers and sisters can’t always say. We are honoring the contract and doing our best to perform safely.

With that said, we are allowed to voice our opinions. The professionalisms you preach and fortitude you claim we need has proven itself out. We get the job done and we still do it better than most, despite our current predicament . Kudos on an super old thread.

I guess that why Mainline AA SAYS IT’s TIME!



For my third home.

Surprised anyone at mainline is against us making the same as PSA. I realize it feels good to talk down to people making 1/10th of what you do, and teach them hard lessons about life etc, but honestly the less of a discount AA gets us at, the more flying/hiring is going to be at mainline as a proportion of the whole. That’s good for everyone, except those who otherwise wouldn’t be airline pilots if not for the lower hiring standards of the regionals.

I can almost guarantee that guy telling us we are spoiled brats never did a day in their life at the regional level.

Read my first response to “AA’s” posting. Pretty sure this is a troll post, maybe even Mgt. “New” to the forum and chose to post on this first? This person still only has two posts to their name, the original and “why can’t I have an opinion?” response to me questioning their agenda.

Maybe not. We have former military mainline pilots on the AA forum complaining about eagle pilots D2’ing on mainline flights.

That’s funny. Because pilots are a very small portion of the total number of D2s.

I bet those same guys don’t have a problem D2’ing on the regional partners though.

Speaking of, there is this one AA guy that commutes from the same town I do, former military too. Every time one of us Envoy guys gets the jumpseat over him because its our equipment, he goes into a loud rant that all can hear about flying ‘these people’ all over the world and he can’t even get on a flight home because of all of us other non-revs take up all the seats. Non-revs hear him, revenue passengers hear him, gate agents hear him. He’s probably one of the guys posting over there complaining.

That’s not to poke at all AA former military guys. We have others that commute too and they’re nice and respectful but your post was so close to on point for him I couldn’t help but laugh.
