Yes EXENG, I do post my opinions, just as many others do. Clearly that is what pprune is all about, different opinions. Imagine if everyone agreed, how boring it would be.
After working worldwide for the last 30+ years in line operations, I now find that the everyday problems of management to be a refreshing change.
I have found over the years that pilots generally think along the same lines....higher pay, upgrade potential and maximum time off. Nothing wrong with this you understand, but these items are not the only thing that matters. For an airline to succeed, it takes co-operation from many departments to make it all work, not just flight operations. I generally find that most pilots fail to understand or appreciate this fact. If my opinions upset some...then good. At least it might, on occasion, cause a few to actually....think....about something other than pay, time off, upgrades etc. It would seem to me that pilots should not constantly bite the hand that feeds them.
