This message board is a JOKE!
After the original question was posted, there was one (ONE!) helpful response by justApilot and then the sarcasm, snide remarks and general a**holery began. It seems that anything is a good excuse for the APA/AA bashers (whether they are TWA, Eagle, ALPA or whoever) to get their hackles up and post worthless invective on this board. The same is true when any thread gets started about Delta, it's just different bashers.
Message boards like this provide a level of anonymity that allow people to speak their minds and express things that they sometimes wouldn't say in front of people they know. This CAN be a good thing, like asking about the lifestyle at XYZ airline without having anyone but you know that you might be looking for a new job.
Unfortunately people here have used the Internet Anonymity Shield to transform themselves into the most rabid, zealous and backstabbing people I have ever had the misfortune to encounter.
Yes, there are bad feelings out there, but remember that this thread started out as a question about the master bid run at AA. If any of you want to start a thread about how APA sucks, or how Eagle gets screwed at every opportunity, or how the whole world should honor an X-year captain, then by all means START YOUR OWN THREAD!
Bottom line.....hijacking is bad .
