here is what I think.....the CA in question.... most likely out of line.... just about everybody has made at least one off handed remark to a controller at some point...numerous occasions during the same flight... ??? not good. I also think the OP is a bit over the top as well. If the guy is "that well known" in the Eagle crowd ....calling him out isnt going to change the behavior.... Pro Standards in the Union is where this should have gone.

Who cares? D@mn. Way to make a mountain out of a molehill. I highly doubt the controller went home in tears that day. The controller is a professional as well and sometimes part of being a professional is having thick skin. I doubt it ruined his weekend. Big deal. A ****y moaning pilot...imagine that.

I have to agree with the orginal poster on this. Everyone has bad days and everyone has bad things happen to them. Thats life. However just because you are having a bad day you have no right to take that out on the people around you. We are supposed to be PROFESSIONAL pilots. Part of being a professional is being respectful and acting professional even if you are having a bad day. Constantly giving controllers attitude and using snide remarks not only makes you look bad but also makes your fellow pilots look bad. People on this forum may tell me to lighten up, but it drives me nuts hearing stories like this. Our profession has taken enough beatings from everyone else, we don't need to do it to ourselves.
Amen to that.... |

Sir or Maam I nominate you TOTD! While you're criss-crossing the sky dealing with one person (heaven for-bid) I'm sure that crew had a whole list of things that led to their frustration. Spare us your better than though comments. Everyone is allowed a bad day (even pilots)....for you to call these guys out on a PUBLIC forum is a petty and egotistical move on your part. If it was as bad as you said it was im sure the feds would handle it accordingly. You friend are a tool

Maybe we all need to grow up and start acting like the professionals that we all so desperately want to be treated like.
Now I haven't heard the tapes, but IF the crew was being as unprofessional as the OP claims, there really is no excuse. |

Guess you forgot about the 80s when they went on strike and Reagan fired them all. They never got their jobs back.
Ya, one bad day. Big deal. The 80s? When was that? How long ago? |

What happens a few years from now when controllers look back at 9/11 and say "One bad day that eventually led to thousands of furloughed pilots..." |
You know, being a professional includes how you respond and conduct yourself around those that are not.
The fact that the OP all but called the crew out by name in my opinion is just as unprofessional, if not worse, than how the crew may have acted. If you really have an issue, I imagine that you can get in contact with somebody at Eagle and express your feelings that way. But I guess its easier to call them out in a public forum where they most likely aren't going to have a chance to speak for themselves. While I don't necessarily condone the crews action (I tend to agree with most here that bad attitudes should be left off freq), I find it very juvenile this is how you decided to go about expressing yourself in this matter. |
The OP didn't call anybody's name. Only an Eagle pilot would even be able to find out that info.

will someone post the audio already jeeze
