bel·lig·er·ent
bəˈlijərənt/
adjective
1.
hostile and aggressive.
"a bull-necked, belligerent old man"
synonyms: hostile, aggressive


Do we have belligerent members? Of course. Bluepilots.com has a decent amount of belligerence. Does the MEC tone their message to appease this minority because they fear being removed from office? Absolutely not. That's a laughable assertion. They have polled the membership a number of times as well as have pilot to pilot guys out on the line to get the pulse of this pilot group.

I'm just repeating something I heard directly from a committee chairman. The recent shift in tone is due to an attempt to appease a specific demographic. Take it how you will. I trust the guy who told me that.

My point is I don't believe the shift in tone has become belligerent.

The 190 does not go west of Texas or Chicago. Even those are less common, the vast majority of the 190 flying is east coast and northern Caribbean plus cle,Dtw,ord,and Texas sprinkled in.
