Capt Al Haynes needs our help

[ERJ2FLY]

Al was my Little League coach, he was a great role model and now I'm fortunate enough to share a neighborhood with him. Part of what makes him a great man is his ability to pull people together to make something happen (remember Sioux City? He wasn't alone in that cockpit). The humility you must possess when asking for help keeps many from making the request, often with less than desireable results... Al isn't one of those types. He asked for assistance because it was the right thing to do...and his community rose to the occasion. We should admire such a humble man.

This has to be the most depressing thread I've ever read. I can't believe that a group of airline pilots, who should all know full well and good what Capt Al Haynes did and what kind of man he is, could respond with such callus and disrespect for what he and his family are going through. Way to make us all look like a bunch of a$$holes. Guess the days of airline pilots having class and gentlemenly are over. And you wonder why us regionals pilots have such bad reputatoins. Looks like we deserve them.
