You have no rights protecting you from it. Others may say it was offensive, rude, ignorant, bigoted, etc. They have the right to think what they will, or feel offended. We do not have the right not to be offended.

Deadhead, ExAF...you guys do know that was NOT my quote right? I put " " around it and copied pasted it from the comments under the video...I didn't use the appropriate conventions for quoting. My fault.

Back in the days of eastern, pilots would carry enough for one first class ticket on their plane, so they could walk up to someone buy their ticket and tell them to gtfo of their plane.

This is also the time when they would tell their familes that they needed pickup from the airport by buzzing there house.

You will never know the type of sacrifices and commitments pilots in America make, again not saying that out of ignorance because with comments like these it's safe to say the type of person/pilot you are.

You can keep your clapping passengers, better pay, and demeaning remarks about American carriers, but I'll tell you one thing I am damn proud to be an American, to live in this country, and to fly for an American carrier.
So you get disrespected and underpaid and that makes you better because you are an "American"? GOOD FOR YOU.

First class ticket costs about as much as month's salary for todays American pilot....

Never said it made me better, only said I had pride in my country and that I'm proud to be American.

If you interpret pride, faith, and patriotism in one's country the same as being better, than yeah your statement is accurate.
