Never happen, big money will win, I fly only when very necessary and I have accumulated over 10 million miles of flying in my career, that goodness I am retired.

It does not matter about race or sex, what matters is are they the most qualified crew available, this should not be a showboat issue, it about time in type of aircraft and quality of flying experience. When they make this a publicity stunt it scares the hell out of me. Could this crew land the SW plane that had the engine and window failure recently, it not then they should not be together. We have a real shortage of pilots in this county and the airlines are moving new pilots up the ladder too quickly and their will be a disaster due to this, this has nothing to do with sex or race.

I have no idea why people fly SWA, it always been a lousy ride since Air Cal, poor maintenance and bad seats, they must of got a discount after last weeks accident

The issue is simple, no pets unless it is a service animal. People have way overdone the emotional support pets thing, it you are that ill then stay home. I tired of flying next to someone and their cat in First Class on Delta, Delta has a peanut polity, no peanuts on a flight if some is allergic to them, what about people allergic to cats.

Yea Delta, way too many fake service dogs in this country and on planes, people buy a “service dog tag or sweater” and pretend. I know people whom have partipated in this scam.

Boeing will be remembered in the business text books for how they lost market share to Airbus. Their lack of vision to replace the 757 and 767, and create substandard aircraft as the 737-900 is amazing. They are right up there with Coke when they rolled our NEW COKE

It is not how many hours, it is the quality of hours and time in type, i.e in jet or turboprop planes. You can have a pilot with lots of hours in a 172 flying in good conditions who has no challenging hours in ice and weather. Not good training hours. I personally like the pilots who start flying single pilot milk runs missions on a daily basis regardless of weather in turboprops, then they move to right seat of a small CJ or King Air with a higher time pilot. then they get on the job training. If s a decent corporate flight department or fractional ownership they usually are required simulator and class time. Of course there are pilots who completes all training and they still never learn how to feel and fly the airplane. They same holds true in the Military, some pilots learn real flying and some do not. We can not tolerate right seat pilots that crashed planes and killed humans like Lexington where they were taking off on the taxiway (controls were to the right seat), or the Colga

I hope United does survive and is profitable we do not need to lose another major airline. I just happen to think their CEO is weak.

The option was for United to buy more 737-900, an airplane the has poor performance. It can have tail scrapes on takeoff and you must land at 160 knots to keep in in the air, and now Boeing is go to this plane stretch it to the 10 version. It takes forever to takeoff and to climb out of weather, and then only has initial altitude of 320 or 340, Boeing should be ashamed that this is the best they could do. Boeing had the market and lost it, they will be in the business text books along with other flops like Kodak, Xerox, IBM and New Coke. I was a big Boeing fan but the Airbus is more comfortable so if you going bounce in weather I rather be in a better seat.
