No doubt Doc. No doubt. But this is a case of a true scotch double. Skirty McManpon allowed himself to be so intimidated as to watch xx # of others use the lav while he just sat there in misery.
This may have even been a triple, as Sax could have said an encouraging word to his seatmate to pull his big boy panties up and assert his need.
Then again, as we all know, all too often it's best not to intervene between women. Good judgement and timing is required and Sax may well have been too tired to accept the risk involved.

The flight was short. 45 minutes. The window of opportunity was small. The thought crossed my mind to just tell him to go the back lavs, but first, I was in uniform as a non-rev. He was also seated in the F window seat, while I was in the A seat across with no one in between us. So that would have required lots of effort to shout across the aisle to just go while explaining not to tell anyone that that "pilot in uniform over there told me to go!" Therefore getting myself in trouble with the FA's.

To the passenger today who thanked me for not crashing into the side of a mountain. You ma'am, are a TOTD nominee. And, not crashing is setting the bar pretty low, don't you think?

This:
"I think the eventual answer will be the unmanned cockpit. I’m not happy about it for a variety of reasons, but as drone- and spaceship-technology develops, we may conclude that total separation between plane and pilot is the safest way to ensure that travellers arrive at their destination in one piece. The magnificent men and women of the not-too-distant future will sit in concrete towers before elaborate screens, guiding their flying machines as if they were playing a computer game. There being no point in hijacking a plane they can’t fly, terrorists will have to think of something else.
Not to worry. They probably will."

Look really sad and say with a German accent "My brother was a GOOD CAPTAIN. You are horrible ugly woman to make awful joke." Then remain silent and stare into space until she leaves.

Please notice I've parsed your comments in the quote above. My last post in that thread addresses your last sentence. Shalom.

I try to stay off this thread, philosophically I try to have a more positive outlook but lately I must yield to self-evident truths, between Peter Garrison and today's winner...
Help A Young Girl's Dad Be A Pilot by Philip Webb - GoFundMe
Aggravating factor, he posted this multiple times on APC under the name "Philip Webb"...have no idea if that's his real name.
Additional aggravating factor, says he originally wanted be a military pilot but "family and friends talked him out of it". Bet it sucked that his dream of being a military aviator was screwed up by those annoying wars...who wants to join up during a war?
