Dash 8 is a mid-size jet?

[Sir Herbert Gussett]

I love how the plane I fly gets called "a small plane," when something insignificant happens but WHEN HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE ABOUT TO DIE AND MOTHERS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO GIVE BIRTH, all of a sudden one is the captain of a "medium-sized jet".

Love the press. :ok:
