There's this whole big thing outside of flying that is pretty awesome.

There’s so many angles to their BS campaign, but this definitely touches on one…..the so-called “rigorous physicals” they say they will continue to undergo every 6 months. You mean the one where you pay “your guy” a Benjamin or two to basically verify all 4 limbs are still attached, sign a piece of paper, and then send you on your way? That type of “rigorous physical”??? They’ll be nonrevving all over the country to find the right AMEs. Just another part of a broken system that will only get even more broken, just like their minds and bodies.

To the traveling public: SAFETY WILL BE COMPROMISED…..
