Yep I do that too...and you're right. I once was on a hotel bus in SEA and a UAL scab boarded the bus. As soon she boarded the bus the 'crickets' started chirping. She looked at me in and said;'When will this sh1t end?" My Capt pulled off his hat. Inside the hat was a NWA 1978 strike scab list with lines through many of the names. He said, 'when the last one dies' I was never so proud to be a NWA pilot!

Av8r,
You must be trying to pick a fight with a statement like that, you know this is a very touchy subject and the guys feel very strongly,
All I can say is, prepare for a BIG piece of humble pie....

seriously...i dont know you, dont owe you. Why shouldnt I look out for #1? If crossing the picket line meant you all die i'd still do it. You're nothing to me.

obviously crossing a picket line isn't considered a deficiency of moral character as far as issuing an atp is concerned.

Nah, he was an old, skanky-looking 75 driver, I'm sure retired or dead by now. Undignified like I said, but that seems to be a common theme with some NWA captains, real or imagined...regardless of their equipment.

You remind me of the south end of a northbound horse. Don't suppose you would be bold enough to share a name so I can make sure your resume ends up in the appropriate pile?

Now that wouldn't be looking out for #1, would it? Who are you people to presume that a total stranger should make sacrifices for YOUR benefit?
