Mmmmmm....gets the big fat "Meh."

Or 'Noted'

Most of us operate prudently and efficiently and it's called being a pilot. Problem becomes when some bright inexperienced enterprising up and coming star tries to 'pester' in an environment where it's not welcome (like perhaps New York, Chicago, San Fran, Los Angeles or any other busy place). Controllers do a magnificent job there and pretty well know that pilots don't like droning and wasting gas. But there are a whole bunch of other airplanes and you are one of very many (with a limited picture on what is going on).

And then we become 'that' airline--which can be counterproductive in the long run.

Some have already discovered the perils of not knowing about the sandbox you are playing in while at the same time thinking the world revolves around you.

So the bottom line as always is keep your SA up, know where you are playing, realize the world doesn't always revolve around YOU, operate prudently as you always do, and do the right things.

Probably didn't need an article to tell us that.......
