Pilots being humans could be dangerous
That reminds me of a passenger a few weeks ago:
When boarding he saw me through the cockpitwindow, eating a sandwich. He then complained to the cabin crew that this was outrageous, because I could fall ill if I was eating something bad, and now he would be scared the entire flight.
The captain then explained that an FO with something in his stomach would fly safer than when passing out due to lack of food, but the passenger told him he would write a complaint to the company.
Sorry for being human!
