Wow Racism? Why don't you give example of that at the union forum? Never saw any of that. So I assume you are a big DEI supporter?

et another thing that's not changed in the 3 decades I've been here. The SW section of the PPrune forum was started because SWApA would shut down the forum during major votes, to stifle dissenters. PPrune is also the only SW pilot forum that's never been purged, ,aking it a nice historical repository for those interested in finding out how we got where we are today!

PPRUNE was an anger wank-fest just like this thread. It was great if you hated everyone and everything. The "intelligent" people on there started discussing QAnon in a very serious way which is exactly when I figured out that they are dumber than the people they claim to be smarter than.
The main characters in that place were compete tools.

Great experience. 10/10. My steak was a bit overdone, but the atmosphere was wonderful.

The history on PPRune goes back to way before you got hired.

Like this or any other forum, it's best to ignore the tools.

Once you do that, it's much easier to separate the wheat from the chaff.

There were a lot of spirited discussions on there WRT contracts, SLs etc. painting an acurate picture as to how we've ended up with industry lagging contracts for at least the last 2 decades.

Unlike APC, every poster on there was/is a vetted SW pilot.

Also, as I said in the earlier post, unlike the SWAPA forum, it has never been purged of huge amounts of content nor has it ever been over moderated.

I think you’re being rather hyper-sensitive. I didn’t pick up on much of that on there especially the racism part.
