Many pilots working for shaky airlines are minting money. Yourself included.

Gotta get it while it’s hot, and be ready when it’s not.

Thats the self serving Asian mentality that predominates the pilot group here. When we furloughed during COVID there was a segment of selfish pilots who kicked up a stink about the union doing a dues payment to
cover them for a little bit as they were UNEMPLOYED.

This is worthy of noting.

I agree that mentality exists in a select few and I’m always for preventing furloughs regardless where I sit seniority wise. However, I meant more along the lines of make the money and smart financial decisions now to prep for the day we can’t…for those preaching doom and gloom out there.

For those of us who are unfamiliar with this phenomenon, perhaps you can describe in more detail these self-serving qualities of Asians you refer to? I'm assuming that this is in comparison to people who are not of Asian descent and who are presumably not self-serving?

Thanks.

That's how I read it to mean.

Right?! The ones I knew to do that weren't Asian.

Recalled and Backpaid. Congress took too long between the first-second-third offering I guess.

I had no idea all the mainland and other pilots had such an Asian mentality.
Is that what the MEC has?
Did not realize that they were Asian.

Vast majority of the Asian-looking pilots I know at HAL bleed red, white, and blue so I’m just very confused by what the point is the shorts pilot is failing to make?
