I guess the Northwest pilots can now call themselves Delta professionals! Remember in the late 80's and early 90's when the Delta professionals were landing at McDill instead of TPA, wrong runways, and violating MEL's?

I seem to recall every other Legacy, LCC, and regional carrier having a similar rap sheet.

We are an INCREDIBLE breed of people, we just love to throw other fellow pilots under the bus and watch them bleed...
Not cool

Have any of you guys been reading the blogs and news regarding this situation? This situation is getting legs and a lot of people are quite upset. Additionally, NORAD is now taking heat and people are wondering why they didn't do anything.
And again, the commuting policy / fatigue is being looked at. I hope these guys didn't commute.
This is just bad timing.

who are suddenly on the boards piling onto Delta. Deserved or not, it seems awfully petty to dream up a new screen name just to jump on the bandwagon, and I suspect these "first posters" <ahem> know it.
This forum is already anonymous. Yet frequent posters nevertheless develop reputations, some informative and professional (ACL65), and some others not so much (aka Deltabound . . heh
). Now we have posters unable to even risk impugning their already utterly ephemeral and inconsequential anonymous "poster-cred" by posting under their regular screen name, yet are unable to resist the opportunity to bash some pilots who's careers are in jeopardy before the facts are known and the investigations have concluded.
So they dream up another name to do it. That, I think, speaks very much for itself.

You bring up a good point. I remember when this forum was supposed to be for Airline Pilots ... or for perhaps wannabes.
Now we have anybody and anyone coming onto this forum. I'm sorry, but APC has lost it's niche in the airline online blog sector.
