It's amazing to me that you find so many people that you hate when the majority of the pilots like almost everyone they fly with. When you're the 1% you're the one who is the problem, not the rest of us.
Yikes! Completely agree. I've yet to run across somebody here that exhibits so many negative traits. Talk about a complete CRM nightmare... I guarantee you he's one of the 5% on the frequent visitor CP office program!

How many did I say again? I guess you missed the part where I said most. But then I will bet you are the troll, are you even out of high school yet?

Awwww, poor baby, need a hug? Your guarantee is null and void, the beauty of being here for so long, is the CPs and management are familiar, I did wonder if I had any bid avoid fans, and guess what, none, Flight Ops manager confirmed it. I do visit my CP, usually for coffee on the sweet 3.5 hr airport appreciation breaks.

Hey Gents,
Just thought I'd offer my .02. Only been here a year (one of the 40K numbers) and I am sure all parties involved in this conversation would agree that the VAST majority of pilots, both CAs and FOs are great people and tremendous Airmen. Admittedly, there are a few pilots , 3 stripes or 4, who are tools. I have had nothing but great experiences with the CAs that I've flown with, regardless of their upgrade time. I know the bad ones exist, but I have been fortunate not to have flown with any of them. On the flip side, I just transitioned and there were a few of the guys recently hired who had a huge ego. Not sure if that was bravado or an actual indication of personality. I can say, that if I were Captain who's been flying a CRJ for several years and I had "that" guy sitting next to me attempting to "impress" me with his flying skills, I would not hesitate to put him in his place.

Before I get crucified there were also some exemplary new hire pilots in the class as well just to be clear. I think by and large Skywest has done and will continue to do a great job selecting its pilot group.

KoolAid anyone?

Good post SkyPilot, I completely agree. The vast majority of folks I come across are great people, and many have become friends over the years.

An app. Download it. Search "skywest" "airlinepilot" or "crj" for the best toolbag action.

Well, I used to do that. Up until the day the latest restraining order was granted.
