And you're da** right people are a little touchy about this subject. I cant believe you would get online, hide behind some screen name, and talk smack about our "brag"ging companies without first thinking about those people who, now, have to move their families across the country to a new city (or commute) because of this. Instead of having the comraderie we need to have (and most people in this industry do), you're sitting online all smug like an idiot because we lost a contract.

And I think I speak for 99 percent of the guys out there when I say: To my brothers who are now displaced, industrywide (including the Freedom - Aloha - ATA - Skybus (kinda) - and Champion guys), you have my sympathy.

To this idiot, you have a swift kick in the peas.
It's funny how some of those same guys were soooo smug to make sure we knew how bad our company was. And to go so far as to harrass someone in the elevator...maybe those crews at RAH need a little smackin themselves. Yeah it's horrible and no one wishes anyone out on the street, and I am sure we all wish those pilots the best of luck.

And I've kicked a Comair jumpseater off for being a prick to my First Officer.

It goes both ways. Every airline has their 5%. So what's your point?

In the end we're all an expendable number on the bottom line of someone's ledger. No matter what new shiny jet we fly or who's codeshare we fly for.

Ok, I had to urbandictionary that one.

The "deets" were that this happened some years ago. And was relegated to this CMR F/O making inappropriate comments about my FO's "newness".

i.e. "Wow, you must be f*cking new, you're slow"

Before my First Officer had time to react, the aforementioned Comair First Officer was standing in the jetway and the flight attendant was getting his bag out of the overhead.

Now, my point in bringing this up is that I don't hold this against any Comair pilot. I don't think that all Comair pilots are pricks now. I don't get on forums and gloat and poke when Comair hits the skids.

RAH has pricks, we probably have dozens of pricks. They are in all 4 fleets. Some young, some old, some cocky, some are just overall douchebags.

That's out of over 2000 pilots.

IMAGINE how many pricks are in the ranks of Delta, United, Continental, etc. using that ratio!

So why paint a pilot group with such a broad brush?

You didn't read the rest of the post, did you?

Your colleague was taking pot shots with RAH prick-on-a-jumpseat stories...

I can't have my own stories?
