Same with my post, it was half in jest. I don't consider Skywest pilots any better or worse. However, when the antics of one airline start to majorly effect the operations of others, you have to expect some vitriol in response.

That’s a good point. It’s really new territory for SKW, and I know if I had been tasked with flying out there as a new CA, I definitely wouldn’t have been rushing things. LGA can be confusing, and trash talking pilots that are presumably not rushing is really pathetic.

My post wasn’t tied to this thread, I’m sorry if it created that impression. There seems to be a lot of vitriol - and not just at SkyWest - on APC. Maybe it’s the nature of this site, or social media generally, but it’s not been something I’ve come across much in three decades around aviation. I’ve found pilots to be engaging, helpful and decent fellow citizens, so I’m hoping what I’ve been reading here is tilted by a few outliers. Wasn’t aiming at anyone in particular or even on this thread.
Any one of us could end up needing another of us, and we all face the same threats out there. I for one won’t be disinclined to help when it’s my turn because of someone’s jacket, employer or position.
