This is a very off color joke but if you bad mouth my airline, I'll bad mouth your airline
Yea, except your insult is pretty low class(death is pretty funny isn't it (sarcasm)) and makes you look like a moron. I guess it was to be expected though.

"Freedom 321, Right A short V.

"Right... uh... Say again"

"Just pull forward and get out of his way."

Somehow I don't think that anyone at either airline is in a position to point out the foul ups at the other carrier. I've heard both airlines mess up. I've also heard some legacy carriers mess up too. No one is immune to a brain fart now and then.

You know what douche-bag? You came to our playground and tried to be a bully. The problem is that your mental midget status relegates you to the short bus where none of us play. We don't pick on Special Olympiads(that would be you)

If the best you can do is make light of an accident that took the lives of 49 mothers, fathers and children - your sir, are an ignorant ass.

Should I start telling about the numerous times where being on a Freedom DH shaved years off of my life? Hmm...let's see...cross controlled landings wher PF nearly skidded off a 150 foot wide runway; or getting landing currency in one shot (3+ bounces).

How about the time we listened to the Freedom crew going in to Philadelphia that blew through the localizer 3 times and then, when instructed to descend to XXXX and expect a visual, kept telling the approach controller: "Negative, we're in IMC" -

CONTROLLER: Ceiling is XXXX, descend and maintain XXXX, expect a VISUAL approach to 27R!
Freedom: uh, negative, we said we're in IMC!
Approach: Nevermind...Freedom what do YOU want?

After all of this, the controller kept his wits and remained professional. In the end, the Freedom crew had the balls to ask approach for their phone number.

Approach: Oh yeah Freedom? While we're at it, how about your ops phone number? I'm sure they'd love to hear about this.

Of course, this is the abbreviated version of the story. There's much more to it and it's really more amusing when told in person. However, I'm a digital environmentalist and want to do my part by conserving 1's and 0's.

TOOL.

You are absolutely right, and I agree 100% except with Freedom it's not a brain fart every now and then, it's all the time.

I just heard freedom call an out time from 28 Mins earlier when the Fo was doing her walk around. It's clear that freedoms on time performance is improving because they are fudging times my 1/2hr or more.

You know what, it's pathetic and yet amusing listening to you guys bad mouth each of your lousy airlines. The government needs to shut down the whole regional airline industry before more innocent people get killed.

Isn't there another Mesa bashing forum on APC? Did anyone figure out anything about the Pass Benefits? Does Comair and Delta operated aircraft mean if my connection is with ASA I can not ride?
