What do you think you’d (they’d) do to him? Yell at him? Get physical? Do nothing? Go on a rant about why you’re (they’re) not leaving Spirit and how it’s recession proof? Combination of the above?

The steering tiller is fine on the 190. And there are definitely rollaboard storage areas up front in the 190s, just not any room for a jumpseater’s. I have plenty of gripes about the 190. But those aren’t any of them. I agree the cramped/loud flight deck isn’t great and the ram horn isn’t great. Both the bus side stick, and the CRJ and 737 yokes I’ve used, are better…but at the end of the day ram horn vs regular yoke doesn’t really annoy me…but not having a tray table does.

Worst thing about the E190 besides the seat and seating position are the pairings/trips...

I don't care how nice it hand-fly's if I have to do it 4 legs a day nearly every day. I have that Tshirt.

I'd whip out my man parts and slap him across the face.

Not saying that we don't deserve more, because we definitely do (especially FOs), but complaining in public about your current situation is never a good idea. There's always someone out there who has (had) it way worse than you.

Not a picture we needed, but laughing would be appropriate. 🤣
