So calling the general public "ignorant" is "well said"? I disagree. I think this was a missed opportunity. I'm probably in the minority here. Wouldn't be the first time.

On another flight, the man across the aisle from me grabbed the stewardess before we took off and said, "I'd feel a lot better on a real airplane."

I'd feel a lot better if this author worked for a "real" newspaper.

Nope. I agree with you 100%. I'm surprised that Capt. LeRoy used his name, or more specifically his COMPANY'S name, in that letter. Don't most companies have rules against talking to the press? And yes, I know, this wasn't an interview... But here you go, a letter signed by a Captain referencing his employer, calling passengers "ignorant".

Whether they ARE or not is not the point.
