BLUEjuice,
Is there anything that I said previously that is untrue?
What you perceive as being defensive is just me seeing things from a neutral perspective. Pilots will always complain about one thing or the other and will never be contempt with what they have or where they are. No airline seems to be good enough and the same people complaining now will go to another airline which is meant to be "better" and look for something new to complain and b**ch about too. Read other forums and see for yourself.
My point is, today its Arik tomorrow it will be another airline. Yes the signs were there before he joined but you didn't have to throw at his face the way you did.
I'm sorry to disappoint you, I am not a "career Naija man" neither am I at Arik but I do know what goes on in the industry in Nigeria.
