I was taxiing out a few days ago at FLL and couldn't believe what I heard. As I was starting the 2nd engine, a Chataqua RJ was told to follow us to the active runway. The RJ responded to ground control that he would "follow the Air Trash". At first I thought I hadn't heard it correctly, but when I asked the Captain what that guy said, he replied that I heard it correctly. Wow. An RJ FO looking down his nose at us.
After a few minutes I realized that "air trash" is the Worm's favorite thing to call us. The only logical explanation is that this idiot HAD to be him. Obviously he doesn't meet the standard for us, so he just spends his time making stupid posts and radio calls (that I'm sure his crew members are embarrassed about).
So now we all know the truth. Enjoy your life loser boy.
Clearly unprofessional behavior, but I have heard many, many people refer to AirTran as "Air Trash." Obviously, I disagree with the name, but I have heard it from several people... I've also heard people refer to SWA as SouthWorst, USAirways as USScareways and AWA as America's Worst. I've have heard people refer to the A319 as the "shortbus" as well - hopefully that doesn't upset too many people...
