I didn't say we have the best system in the world. I've always known that the British system is, and always will be the best. Just check your attitude to see that!
Just the thought of having undertrained, rash, blunt, idiot American pilots flying in your god blessed airspace must be the comming of the end!

The US system uses seniority. It's not perfect. Because of this we have many checks along the way. My airline has been operating for over thirty years without an incident or an accident. We're also making money. I guess we must be doing something right.

As for unions? I hate them. But we are better off with them. Our management constantly tries to find loopholes and ways around the contract. But I get 18 days off a month and get paid a good wage because of it.

You fly in your system and I'll trudge along in mine. I think I can agree we disagree. Can you?
