Thanks guys. DW, I tried to explain that on page 3 Post 58. Look at the abuse I got for trying to inject a bit of sanity with these 'experts'! 'Nothing wrong with it' gets hysterical accusations of 'you're always saying that to protect other professionals' and other nonsense like a direct attack on the A380 (so sad). There is an unfortunate desire in some Spotter circles to make a sensation in everything. Couple that with a daft 'expert', and before you know it, you have a major 'incident' that the poor, unsuspecting pilot involved knows nothing about! He was probably admiring all the planes at Oshkosh when he was being accused of being hung up to dry in Toulouse.

How do nervous flyers feel reading these sensationalist idiots running amok like this? Are they doing anything positive for aviation?
