My you are a sensitive soul Shyte.

Unlikevice could have questioned the slow death many aspects of society - good manners, chivalry, good TV, tolerance, national identity, the media, self-responsibility - the list is endless - sadly.

Or perhaps my two score years and ten is simply turning me into a 'grumpy old man'?
You called professional pilots "apologists" for challenging the OP's personal observation on a basic lack of airmanship. I regarded that post as inflammatory. No-one here apologised for the actions of other pilots, but three of us (four if you count SAS who I believe is now enjoying his retirement) merely disagreed with the observation, as far as we were concerned. In my case, I explained why.

What else the OP could have written is immaterial.

Maybe it is - perhaps you'll become even more grumpy when you get to my age.
