I hear ya, Its part of the deal, I used to get mad, but thats even more ridiculous. Think about it, our egos as pilots are so big then when someone calls our airplane small (its is relatively to most peoples flying experience) we get upset, I think it's funny. I laughed the other day I was coming back from my P/C and this mother and her daughter get on the 757-200 and they were shocked "on how small it was"............people are dumb its just that simple
