GF -
I agree. I
AM way over the top with my comments. But you must know that since last June the AWA pilots have been threatening all kinds of scenarios and consistently calling us scabs. I realize that name-calling is juvenile, especially when it is done by people who are so ignoratn that they don't even KNOW what a scab is. There is not ONE pilot on the USairways east seniority list that has performed struck work. Ever. I don't know of any other pilot group in the US that can say that. In particular, AWA employs Ansett scabs among their ranks, yet those guys have the gall to use that word toward us.
It's enough to piss me off! (American slang, not British.) While I am sure that calmer heads will actually prevail within the USAPA structure, I've had about enough of those west weenies name calling. They're a bunch of losers and have been since they turned their first prop in 1983. Now that they've lost yet again, they call us scabs. Personally, I hope when the dust settles they continue to be f****d as they have been since their loser company started.
(But I'm not bitter...
