Isn't there a more gender neutral way of saying that?

That's just what the men who would not step in are- gender neutral!

SO you were that guy!

Now, we will never be able to do a pivotal fight scene from “Grease” on board an airliner again....

Hi RR! Thanks for the input.

BTW, do you recall the name of the woman (Ann something-or-other) who used to report on these types of ME flight incidents? It’s on the tip of my tongue, but I’m drawing a blank on her name.

You know, if *I* was an islamic terrorist, I would commit THIS act of terror: I would leave America all alone. After all, she is destroying herself very nicely.

We keep looking at our country from our point of view. You have to look at our country from the enemy’s point of view. What do you see when you look from that point of view?

Does an enlarged prostate gland cause one to draw diagrams of the plane’s cabin and take notes on the activity flight attendants?

Stewie Griffin said his airline pillow smelled like farts. I hate to think what a blanket smells like.

Seriously, I can’t stand the thought of putting my head on an airplane pillow or blanket. I can’t stand the thought of putting my butt on an airplane seat. It’s all filthy. That’s just one of the reasons I’ll never fly again.

Only a matter of time before they get 9 year olds to board planes with no ticket and no TSA search.

yes, you are right... i have been a nervous flier the last 20 years and have avoided it as much as possible... however, since March i have flown 8-9 times and have lost all my nervousness... i am even good in turbulence... but i have only flown Southwest... but Southwest does not fly into or out of smaller airports... so i wanted to try to not always have to rely on Southwest... (but they are so pleasant, and so forgiving if you miss your flight—which i did, once... and almost did another time... plus they do not charge extra for two pieces of luggage, plus a carry-on)... anyway, i am feeling better now that i have talked about it... thanks :)

Not if you want a plane takeover to actually be stopped. It’s simply a matter of mass and strength.

I got to help a really hot chick with her luggage last night.

:)

Why do women always bring on luggage they aren’t strong enough to handle?????

No but someone wanting to sue an airline might.

Seems like that is the only ‘weapon’ we have, and it’s not even a weapon...

...yet.

“allowing box cutters onboard” TSA caved to the idiot flight attendant union and never changed the rule to allow small knives.

Yeah, not letting me onboard with my swiss army knife really helps security.

/sarcasm

thank you!

I fly most every week. I am one of those pampered special-privilege fliers who gets the pick of seats, boards early, etc.

ialso am always in an aisle seat for this very reason.

no one is ever going to be unopposed in any attempt to take over a US flight. period. and not because of me, but rather all the frequent fliers who ‘get it.’ ALL of the me’s

sent from my mobile. on the flight 22 D. aisle.

Indeed and that scam to sue has been perpetrated quite often.

However, don’t think that doesn’t mean the terrorists have given up on another crack at a sensational attack.
