Was this an East Crew or West Crew?

Just asking because the last time I was in the PHX crew room - all I heard were a group of folks talking about all the incidents that the East crews had compared to the West crews

Clear Air Turbulence caused an injury to a flight attendant and the crew elected to land and treat her injuries. Where is the big incident/drama/poor airmanship?
 
Last time I checked, this plane was not by the departure end of 9L at PHL with the name painted over...
 
Sh!t happens. East, West, North and South.

Yeah, Sh!t did happen between the East and West. The North and South respected a process and agreed to coexist without punishing the smaller group. You can't even compare the two groupings.

Why does a dispatcher at a regional feel the need to pose as a Delta pilot?

Interesting question. Same goes for an MD11 lav dumper. How much krap do you suck out of one of those cargo MD11 lavs anyway each time? You probably do it manually, with your hands like a big bear hug. Ahhhhh, so cute for you.

They did? Then why are there so many old timers who refuse to shave their beards until the South rises again? Oh, you didn't mean THAT North and South, my bad.
