Now we know why.
We live in a world of instant news, even the non-news kind.

And if it were a CNN article, there'd be a mention of and 5 links to the Dr. Dao story.

So... they're upset about a third pilot sleeping in the cabin.
So, I'm sure they wouldn't be thrilled about one pilot on a 2-man crew napping in the cockpit.
Yet, somehow, single-pilot airliners are going to be a-ok with the public. Uh huh... right.

Some very real parallels between that article, the general public, the press and the airline industry and this Monte Python scene....
