I know some folks like to bend the rules up north, but everybody in the lower 48 figured out a long time ago that you cannot apply common sense when the pax all have HD video on their cell phones.
The FAA will come down like a ton of bricks when stuff like this gets on social media. Word to the wise. If you're going to depart with a "touch" of frost, better have the FA make sure all the cabin window shades are down. Welcome to 2019.
[MENTION=81200]FAASTER[/MENTION] lost some credibility calling “frost” “ice.” Nonetheless, [MENTION=2246]rickair7777[/MENTION] is absolutely correct. As for the rest, read up on 121.629. Being “professional” means you do the right thing even when nobody is watching.
