Ah sorry I forgot. You're still sore I burst your little FFDO hero fantasy. Sorry Serena, but you won't have the opportunity to be the savior when the terr-wist bursts through the cockpit door after getting past security, the angry passengers, and the fortified door. The program is much more likely to result in a hole in the side of the plane, leaving the gun somewhere, or creative use by Lubitz or Osbon.

I am close friends in real life with a few transport captains, and also have numerous aviation professionals as patients I have to see every 6 months for their special. They are great people and we have a great relationship. Fortunately I've never encountered anybody as idiotic and childish as the noisemakers on this forum, particularly the wannabes here (obvious who they are), but can fortunately quickly ignore.

It has been my experience that pilots like to hear medical stories more than I want to hear piloting stories (hopefully not much daily excitement as a civil transport guy...)

Keep in mind cpnjns that a subset of pax eat this up... I am sure he gets a great deal of positive feedback, and the remainder are just too polite and will look down in their books during the briefing.
