un-av8tr4aa,
You are really calling the kettle black. American is rated one of the worst in accidents. Look at 1970-St. Thomas, 1976-St. Thomas, 1995-Hartford, 1995-Cali, 1999-Little Rock. I can go on, but I think you get the point.

I flew a -200 into Providence that night and didn't have much fun either.

You missed the point
I am only commenting on how Eagle (and everyone else)
Will hire ANYONE with little or no experience.
In fact I heard the first interview question is
"How little money will you work for?"
In my crash pad there is a RJ Captain that
just turned 23 years old! Now do you think he is a
experienced pilot? He wasn't even old enough to BE a pilot
when I got my AIRLINE JOB.
That is my point, so back down on the AA record.
I would take my chances with a experienced crew ANYDAY
over some backpack toting,Oakley wearing,cellphone talking,
no dues paying,punk a$$ kid .
