But one person really stood out in a bad way and it was clear I should not share a flight deck with them again. The person I spoke with was very helpful with the PBS issue, but also suggested that I make a call to professional standards (we did not get into specifics about my issue).

I didn't make that call, and I should have. Just something to consider after your bid avoid.... for the sake of everyone else in your seat.
Let me guess... does this captain have the initials MC, KC or DK?

How's VX treating ya?

Are the 175s replacing CRJs or is it expansion?

Ya... About that, you can't have the apples and hide the oranges. They are not all growth. The original horizon planes on the delta side are leaving, and we have 20 coming for United.

We also have 53 700's coming off contract that they "feel confident" they can find homes for. They have placed seven on the American, but then they said the 200's for American are going away.

No one will know if it's growth until it's done.
