I never said it was a regional thing but nice attempt at deflection.
I wasn't the only one.

But nice attempt to say how much regionals suck, when mainline sucks just as much and makes passengers lives miserable.

The aircraft I fly has a digital readout of the temperature on the EICAS. It's in Centigrade, but even us lowly regional guys can figure it out. With math.

This isn't an us versus them. We were having a conversation on this topic on the United forum. After dead heading the other day, I thought it was worthy to introduce it on this forum as well. Those who want to make it an us vs them are not part of the solution.

Comments about PSA's acars messages goes to the level of pilot pushing over safety and comfort.

Did you make a point on the forum, as well as in UAL section here about how BOTH mainline and UAX cabin temperature sucks at times?

Last I checked, the policy at the place I work at was that anytime the aft passenger door is closed, the APU "shall" be on.

Never mind the fact no pre-conditioned air will ever be routinely hooked up to an RJ when it pulls into the gate.
Enjoy your sweat box.
Which mainline would this be? I have never heard anyone being called by the CP to explain his/her APU use. And unless the airplane is sitting at the gate for a few hours, I leave the APU running. I have also delayed passenger boarding if the airplane is to hot. I don't care how ****ed off the gate agents get. No one needs to sit in a 200 that is so hot that it causes possible physical issues.

"APU use and single engine taxi compliance monitored".

Fantastic employer/employee relations over here.
Is that what S/E taxi means? All this time I thought it meant SouthEast taxi.

When you take it personally it makes it difficult to discuss it doesn't it.

What if the door is open and the cabin is hot?
