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!"

I've always found that extraordinary difficult to believe. Scheduling programs are no sooo engrossing that you would miss the multitude of cues that you were approaching your destination. As far as I'm concerned they fell asleep. And if that true. Thanks a lot guys! You could have changed our profession for the better. I bet pt 117 would be different if they had admitted it.

I always cringe when I see the people on Facebook that have their companies logo plastered all over their FrontPage. Can't forget the typical "my office" pic.
Also if you fly for us airways you don't fly for American airlines, least not yet.

AvWeb article

"FAA: Cockpit Photos Are OK -- Maybe"
(AvWeb, 12/15/14, M. Grady) A widely cited story posted on the blog Quartz on Friday raises the question whether airline pilots who post aerial photos online are violating FAA rules against using "personal wireless devices" in the cockpit, but the FAA told AVweb picture-taking is OK with them -- as long as pilots use the proper equipment. "A pilot at the controls is permitted to take a picture with a non-wireless camera and not be in violation of this regulation," the FAA wrote in an email. "However, a pilot at the controls is not permitted to take a picture with a cell phone." Tablets and personal computers also are not permitted, and no photos of any kind are allowed during aircraft operations when the "sterile cockpit rule" is in effect, typically below 10,000 feet.

But if that's all they ever talk about, well then that's different.
