My questions are multitude and I don’t know where to begin.<\/p>\n
1. If you can use a laptop safely in a cockpit to surf the web — and I’m assuming if they were checking their schedules, they were online — then why can’t we use our cell phones?<\/p>\n
2. Why isn’t there a method for contacting the flight attendants? One of those stupid Air Phones with a number for dialing into it; an attendant with a satellite phone; or one of those cell phones that don’t really impact air flight at all — these all seem like options to me.<\/p>\n
3. An hour plus and you didn’t hear beeping? Didn’t look up? And you call this “innocuous”? Really?<\/p>\n
4. And for the flight attendants: you didn’t decide to check on the flight status until you were already an hour past your destination? No one said anything before then? You didn’t think anything before then? Wow.<\/p>\n
Lastly, to the pilots, who likely have lost their licenses and their livelihoods, I hope your wives (if you have them) beat you soundly with a big stick.<\/p>\n
Best of luck to you all in explaining this to the public.<\/p>\n
