To an untrained eye you could pull up at least 5 screenshots on any given day where You can see an airline doing something exceedingly dangerous, but in all reality they are perfectly safe. Either you lack aviation knowledge or you are trying to make something out of nothing. I’m willing to bet both. This “event” has no basis for dialog beyond a normal everyday flight. But feel free to over exaggerate anything and everything that comes from social media, it seems to be the popular thing to do these days.

Nailed in on the head! Smooth is clearly not an airline pilot. Or maybe an incompetent one if that.

You realize driftdown is calculated for every flight? It's even on the first page of our release lol. I would also venture to guess, that data is near the first page of the release for every airline in the U.S.
Good for you though for thinking you know some trade secret that the rest of us are unaware of lol.
