I help passengers all the time that have trouble, like if they have extra stuff because they are carrying a baby and need help opening a stroller, or are walking to a wheel chair and have bags that if I carried to the wheel chair would be a lot easier for them. All I'm saying is I think its nice when people offer help.
We have female pilots in their 20's? I'll be damned. For some reason I was picturing a 62 year old flying a heavy that can barely move. Sorry. FWIW, I always help the flight attendants with their bags if they ask, or if I see them struggling. We're all on the same team. It also doesn't hurt that my mom's a flight attendant.
These message boards do not do a very good job at portraying people. In reality, I'm one of the most hated pilots to fly with, but on this board I come off as everyone's favorite poster. Wait, maybe I have that backwards.
