who cares what the yard looks like. Its just a house.

who cares if the Miata is a sportscar or not. Its just a car.

who cares what a spouse or significant other looks like. Its just a relationship.

I'm still more concerned with other things than what I fly. Bigger fleet, better scheduleing opportunities, easier trips, money........ They went with the max over the neo. Given the choice, I'd rather be flying something other than the dream guppy, but it provides a far better schedule than any other aircraft in the fleet considering what I put into PBS.

not only is it ugly, it's technically not even a "jet".

I am not attacking you, I apologize if it feels that way, but like virtually every pilot in the world outside of some SWA and old LCAL guppy fanboys, we hate this ugly PoS jet.

I like that there’s 4 “test pilots” jammed into the front of this “guppy” Hopefully they talk about adding an auto switch/lever for A/C after swapping challenge coins to Boeing.

Are you trying to not be funny or is it just natural?

For multiple reasons, this is a beautiful jet. The Max is nothing more than an accountant’s wet dream. Accountants aren’t pilots.

A terrible accountant who leaves money on the table every time it takes off with 20 open seats because they neglected to run performance numbers. But let’s add more seats we can’t fill!
