Hung start
Good post, I think you clarified a lot in it. Of course you are entitled to your own opinons, and they are certainly very valid ones. I think the bashing is aimed at cooling down some of the few 'hot' heads out there who haven't opened their eyes completely. People who claim that SAS pilots are earning more than average major airlines in Europe, have great working conditions etc. Not normal people like yourself who enjoy your life- and workstyle.
As far as knowing people in SAS, I'd say I personally know about 50-60 pilots, mix FO & CMD and most of them are cool guys. And yes, I have also worked for SAS. The problem is the few rotten apples in the barrel that are spoiling it for the rest of you. And it's people like that that are remembered unfortuneately...
