Like a connoisseur, when trying to determine the quality of a wine, will slosh a small amount in his mouth before spitting it out ...to those of us who have been here 15-20 years, your tone has a familiar ring to it. The arrogance is unmistakable.

You remind me of someone who, through nothing but blind luck, scores big in a rising housing market and then convinces himself it's because he's smart. You, sir, scored by joining in the late 70's or early 80's. But you were lucky, that's all.

Those of us, who were first officers in the late 80's /early 90's, and except for your type, had the pleasure of flying with some pretty spectacular guys. On the other hand, your type sold out your fellow pilots because you thought it would ingratiate you to your superiors. You poor fool…karma will take care of you.

Yes, we poor sods, while trying to stand against tyranny, may have lost countless lopsided battles in the courts of Hong Kong. But that will be an enduring legacy that will forever attest to our honour.

As for you…..

If you were a wine, I'd say you were a saucy GC or PH….or perhaps a perky little KB.
