Thanks, DC-ATE. I re-posted it over at Tech, where it has already passed the good censor.
UAL used to say the other airlines avoided storms, while they co-existed with them. You may have got a rougher ride on UAL, but they always made it.
UAL was known for exceptionally good WXR training, whereas it was sadly lacking nearly everywhere else in the US. Astute airlines sent their pilots to UAL for Wx training.
