Dang!! Positive-now I'm going to defend AirWillie!! Mohammed Atta, and at least 2 other 9/11 hijackers had mohammed in their names. To be fair, Willie would have been more correct to use Abdul instead, since most bad guys prefer this moniker -Richard Reid (real name Abdul Rahim), Blind Sheik (Omar Abdul Raman), Umar Faruk Abdulmutallab (Northwest bomber), etc.
So what exactly makes AirWillie's statement arrogant? Our political correctness has TSA shaking-down Granny Johnson and Bubba Smith at security checkpoints, while idiots like Napolitano and Gorelick direct them to not offend all the Mohammeds and Abduls out there...until we smell cordite wafting into the cockpit, and then our dim-wits in government will investigate how it could happen! Madness!!
Oh yeah! Has GoJet hired at least 126 furloughed pilots recently from United, ATA, etc.? Another poster stated that the "majority" of GoJetters are from there...must have missed that hiring boom!
