Still not happy about ANYONE freaking - from what you say it would therefore be OK if I did a zero g bunt in a 747 with 300 passengers down the back all screaming their heads off as long as me and the flight deck crew knew it was going to happen.
I don't think so. You have a duty as a captain of a flying machine to ensure that everyone under your command (pax are your command) is not unduly endangered - scaring the ***** out of someone does not pass in my book as good captaincy.
Flying should be exhilerating, stimulating, not terrifying.
