This is a Washington state law. Someone needs to send this article to that jackwagon. He could talk about how this law is broken all of the time and how it is dangerous to the public and will result in the next "plague" where millions of children will die...all because someone went outside when they had a cold which is illegal in Washington.

RCW 70.54.050
Exposing contagious disease -- Penalty.
Every person who shall wilfully expose himself to another, or any animal affected with any contagious or infectious disease, in any public place or thoroughfare, except upon his or its necessary removal in a manner not dangerous to the public health; and every person so affected who shall expose any other person thereto without his knowledge, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.

You do know you can transfer control of the aircraft right. Good thing SWA does not fly international or I guess you could buy surplus piddle paks from the Air Force.

Wouldn't it suck if his name somehow ended up on the TSA "No Fly" list?

No, I didn't think so neither...

No coffee below 10K. I can see the airplanes falling out of the sky now.

This guy keeps repeating this line about coffee. I think he is basing that on 121.542(b)...which addresses "eating meals" and doesn't say anything about taking a drink. Besides, there's always the "physiological need" card...

This is it. Much of the public today is narrow-minded know-it-all haters, just looking for something else to hate on, and snap-judging with their emotions. I just tune out ignorant/uninformed public opinion, but you do have to be aware of what gets out there for public consumption.

It's the smugness about him that's so off putting. Wow, let's focus energies on "pilots taking pictures are an epidemic, oh no!"
Two idiots at Northwest....
