Default Comair and The Middle Finger

Seriously i have been flicked off by 3 comair guys this week while taxing in CVG! I know that talking trash on an internet message board is big ballin! But flicking someone off at a range of 20 meters from the comfort of your CRJ cockpit is just damn courageous.......and professional.

Some people are just ****ing stupid. It's like some XJT guys giving the finger to the Republic guys down in IAH. We are all in the same boat, so can't we just get along? I apologize on behalf of Comair.

That's when you say over the freq.
"REAAAALLLLL PROFESSIONAL" (sarcastically of course). OR>>>>
Ask ground what flight number it is, then proceed to call the Chief Pilot, or maybe even "Professional" Standards for Comair.
Flame on...

I've jump seated on comair/xjt and they with us. Each one has been professional and very courteous. I actually found the comair group to be the classiest group I've come across. The AA mainline guys have always been great to have in the cockpit too.

I don't even know what to say. I am ashamed. Are we still in high school? What is funny is that the guy(s) who are doing this are probably the same ones that complain about young "immature" new FO's.

This is why things will never improve for our industry. Everyone has a grudge and act so infantile toward each other that it is impossible to have a common goal.

Hate the company not the pilot.
