Actually Bubbers made the comment

It sounds like you live in europe by your response. We don't do things that way here. We think things through and do what makes sense
Implying that the Europeans are incapable of thought and lack sense. His statement also implies that the Americans, you, are the only people capable of such things.

That is hugely egotistical. Hence my comment.

Do you still support your fellow countryman in his claims that Americans and not Europeans are capable of though and the use of sense?

You do not need a monumental ego to be a pilot. You need a cool head, something which you failed to demonstrate in your previous post.

you have been questioning judgement of the pilots in question
No I haven't, I've been asking questions about the process and legality of the situation. I've made occasional statements about my experiences. But your defensive posture has blinded you to that.

In fact what I actually said was I would probably have landed but, on further thought, I changed my mind (I hope that's ok with you!) and have edited my post accordingly.
