Long enough to see the good, the bad, and the ugly.

The line of thought that "we used to do it all the time before TCAS was invented."

I was particularly impressed with the idea of removing fuel.

Enjoy the ride to the bottom.

Without people who were ready to stand up for improving safety, you wouldn't be here, or would be making $10/hour.

A couple years ago on a Bangkok layover, I read a newspaper article about how labor needed to get off the idea of making over $3/hour. If they demanded those type of wages, other countries would take all their business. United is a business. They are supposed to see how cheap they can do business. ALPA doesn't care how much safety costs. They want you to have a long career (and pay dues).

"So, yes, it upsets me, when pilots continue to complain and I hear people like you saying B737 is unsafe to fly. Quit, that is all I have to tell you, because I see no solution to your problem, and no way we can make pilots like you happy."
Not sure it is just pilots, listened to our new President at ORDFO a couple weeks ago and he sure sounded less than complimentary towards the 37. I made it a bit further down your post but ripping on those that earned DOD pentions implying they haven't passed ur test to speak is pukey. Stern talk right up until you speak about how "upset" people make you when they gripe about they guppy...very limp ending.

So what is your solution? We all jump up and down and stomp our feet until the company changes aircraft? Should we refuse a 73 to Hawaii? Details please...
