Over the line! Mark it zero Donnie!

You, sir, are correct. Just goes to show even "Grammar Nazis" can slip up. I know better, but did miss it on proofreading. What the "take away" from this is that I AM embarrassed and will be more careful in the future.

Spelling and grammar do count.

You could use a comma after the is in your statement. It provides better pause and clarity for the ease of the reader. The comma is used where ambiguity might otherwise arise.
I'm not sure the quotes are needed around take away, either. It may be better to avoid this type of technical jargon altogether, and substitute for a more well-suited word or phrase, such as lesson learned.

I saw a T-shirt the other day that said the following:

According to one guy I flew with, you should thread the shoulder harnesses through them...no joke...:eek:

I've seen this several times in the 13 years I've been flying. I was in a Southwest jumpseat last week and the Captain had his shoulder harnesses threaded through his.

I'm sorry, but your critique I absolutely disagree with.:):)

I've seen it a few times. What's the logic? Trying to keep them clean?

Saw a guy once wrap the harness in paper towels and then put them through the epaulets.

So when you release 'em, they don't fly back and hit a jumpseater in the eye? :confused:
