I am a Station Agent here in BNA and just last week I had 2 pax that had read an article talking about how TSA's mins were down to 250 and wanted to know how many hours the FO had on their flight to STL. So of course when they found out their FO was on IOE with roughly 280 hrs they had to be convinced it was safe to fly, and guess what...they made it there and back alive.

I love the media... they do alot to make my job easier
