Cargo ?,

Did you read my previous? Or are you still into bashing the LUV machine?

Try using something original and keep practicing your golf game!

Coward Bob,

Where are you? Such brash statements but cowardice when challenged.

CB,

Please excuse my momentary lapse! It was a new low and I am so ashamed!

Actually my previous had to do with the rip off by the BR courts etc. When you posted that going to vegas was a better bet on LUV I actually painfully agree! Time for some airlines to be removed from the scene so those that are managed well can be more successfull.

You also reminded me of a squadron mate from the late 80's who stated "Southwest is a great company, but I am not paying for my type rating." I have heard that one so many times it is growing a beard. He then was furloughed by two companies only to get a type rating 4 yrs later. He was then turned down when he applied to SWA. I think he is working for FDX now so I am sure he is doing fine. He just whined the whole time so FDX can have him. Cheers!

Paying for a type is an investment. IMHO, SWA wants to see if people are willing to take a risk and invest in a future despite the odds of not making it.

I'm not sure - but I hear they (SWA) like that type of personality type...
