I'm sure the FAA would have been equally diligent to complaints of
unsafe airplanes towing banners saying something like "Eat at Joe's".

A bad seat belt can lead a banner-towing aircraft to tragedy, just as
surely as a politically-incorrect message. It's not like a failure to
maintain a fleet of 737s, or ignoring ADs for a couple of 747s, or
trivial stuff like that. This is a question of seat-belt conformance,
which has the absolute highest priority with the FAA because of the
fearsome danger it represents to aviation safety.

Looks like a couple readers may have missed the sardonic (or should I say
sarcastic or cynical) tone of your post. Much in the same tone my post was
written.

Tone? In a post?

OK, what's my tone right now?
