Of course you new hire pilots know better. You know, you whose daddy paid for everything, never fought for anything in their lives, who entered the airline industry when they were hiring anyone with minimum qualifications.

You are parkers new fodder.
Yep. That's me in a nutshell. You nailed it. Congrats.

If I believe you are who others say you are on this forum, is that why I had to start all my USAPA e-mails to the reps, that worshiped you and that I paid to represent me with "Date of Hire" or they refused to respond to a lowly junior pilot?

Is that what you think of all new hires?

If it is, you need to take your head out of your posterior orifice and see what the experience level really is. I think you may be very surprised to find out most of us did not get hired at a legacy in our mid to late 20s and actually had (a lot) more experience that most of the new hires from 80s and 90s.

I bookmarked your post. It will be my pleasure to point out the hypocrisy that you have shown in your posts over recent history, in the near future.

USAPA said no to alpa. This was after what happened to Pan
Am, Eastern, Continental, Frontier, Midway, TWA and many other distinguished airmen you ride the coat tails of.

alpa wrote them off. USAPA drew the line in the sand of phoenix cactus plants from alpa.

Those USAPA pilots you mention had recent generational relatives that were actually on Iwo Jima. They did not read about it in the politically correct version you read about in school.

Bingo. The resumes at the job fairs are impressive as are the flight times posted by new hires.

6000 hours of jet PIC doesn't count when it's from the "commuters."

Yeah you "scum". Commuter pilots flying Part 121 Jets as PIC (Captain) aren't real pilots according to the APA/original LAA pilots. They are just "puppet" pilots and an anomaly in the ranks of "real pilots" like the DAL ALPA/UAL ALPA/APA AAL pilots.

You should bow down to the superior pilots and thank your lucky stars they give you the scraps from their table.

Man, some of you USAPA guys are awfully self-righteous all of a sudden. The Dal, UAL, and AMR guys are such a-holes but you guys are fair and never look down your nose at anyone. I worked for a USAirways commuter from 96-00 and I was always treated well by the mainline guys but just as well by the others you mentioned.

Reading this thread and others in the past, it's obvious that some former USAPA pilots feel that way about us "juniors" (or carpetbaggers) as well, with us having not "earned" the jobs we do safely and effectively every duty period. It's obvious when it comes to Airline Pilots, judgement of others is usually the first stone cast.

Just sayin'...........

Having been "junior" at US Airways for many years I have never been "self-righteous" as you seem to claim. I put my pants on the same way as everyone that has ever sat in the cockpit of an aircraft and know that having come from the commuters myself the few here that HAD looked down their noses at the commuter guys were few and far between. Most of the DAL, UAL and AMR guys that I ran across always seemed to look at the US Air guys as if they were the Sharks circling the prey in the fish tank. Who is having the last laugh now???
