here is what I think.....the CA in question.... most likely out of line.... just about everybody has made at least one off handed remark to a controller at some point...numerous occasions during the same flight... ??? not good. I also think the OP is a bit over the top as well. If the guy is "that well known" in the Eagle crowd ....calling him out isnt going to change the behavior.... Pro Standards in the Union is where this should have gone.
