My experience is that the most ardent company person, who will swears the company can do no wrong, has "friends" in the office and thinks ALPA is full of radicals, will do exactly the same thing.

I find the millennial and younger CAs are generally pretty good, what are you seeing? The older guys are just ****ed at everything in their life and take it out on the guy next to them. They use the FOs as therapists.
Lol this is pretty true. The hate for
the 1.5-2 year rapid upgrades, and the “it took me 18 years”

I wonder if management expects APA to get released, and knows that is going to eff up the rest of the year financials / capacity. Why take on the additional cost of new hires?

The fact that these people and the Kapo pilots want me to single engine taxi is reason enough to always run both engines and apu as long as possible.
Some of you people really need to start thinking of yourselves first. I have no problem not extending duty time even if i'm number 1 for takeoff.
And THIS is the attitude that makes us a lesser airline…

Goes hand in hand with the shutdown of the union forums. They get bored and come over here.

I guarantee this person is someone who just likes stir crap. Same mentality as the meow'ers. They just like to see responses. Stop responding and they go away.

Is there a substitute for the Line boards yet or just facebook? I'd love a non-union place to post general ops q's etc, the site really was useful.

Single engine taxiing will not make or break an airline 😂

It certainly adds up. Can’t complain about not getting a profit sharing check when you don’t do your part.
