I nominate whatever "news" outlet that actually spent time on this for Accessory Tool of the Internet.

Not taking away the toolishness of the videographer, but the pilot in question is not righteous. How hard is it to follow the rules? Which is more toolish? Using the cell phone for texting and tweeting on the takeoff roll - or - the absolute narcisism and conceit of the person who just has to see how he is trending on Twitter RIGHT NOW. I can't wait until touchdown! I have to know now! We are professionals airman. Let's act like it!

Back in the day when cell phones had to be OFF when the door closed, it used to drive me nuts when any crew member in uniform ignored the announcement. How do you expect pax to obey the rules when others around them (who should know better) think they're above it? I had one commuting pilot on one of my regular runs who ALWAYS did it and, of course, I had to be the ***** to ALWAYS tell him to turn it off, as he should know better.

Why? Well, it is just not professional. Act the part if want the perks. It is no coincidence that the guy looks like he is in his 20's.
But yes filming is completely off the rails toolish.

Today at least you have a little "plausible deniability", in that you can "assume" the phone is airplane mode...if they're not actually talking on it.
