SunDevil,
You're a real piece of work. What were you smoking when you supposedly read the piece?
"Mike Pope, a retired flight engineer from Boeing" was quoted by a reporter. How could you possibly know how the reporter was educated, you arrogant lout?
If you want to whine about something you could have suggested that 90% of all private aviation aircraft are controlled by a wheel and not a joy stick.
Now, shut up and go take another hit on that bong.
