As a pilot, my first question directed to the distinguished dumbass from South Carolina is this..
Just what are we suppose to do on those nice long 8 to 14 hr long hauls when nature calls? What am I suppose to eat, that granola bar I managed to sneak past the TSA Federal Security Nazi?
The flight deck on even the most spacious airliner, such as a 777 or 747-400 has no restroom facilities or meal storage. That would require, literally a whole new flight deck on a jet that size.
Geeeeeeeeeeeesh… TMMT
Pilots just need to - en masse - either call in sick or refuse any airliner as "unsafe" if it doesn't totally measure up to FAA specs. All such "unsafe" airliners must be reported to the FAA.
This would both throw schedules into a tailspin - and have the industry begging for an end to what it couldn't legally call a "strike."
You'd have armed pilots fast - with no objection from either industry bosses or congresscritters unable to fly on junkets - then!
GUN REVIEWS free from ad-money bias - including pilot-friendly handguns!
Well, as an old C-141 jock we had those Sextant ports. But, that may be stretching things. ;^)
