Not unless your accountant recommends it! ;-)
Hey, didn't you have your laptop at the AOPA thingy? I'm sorry, you were "working"!

I was working at AOPA Expo, plenty of evidence of that at:
http://www.aero-news.net/SpecialCont...0Expo%202 003 It was worth the trip. I had a lot of fun and I won the Flightcom Denali ANR headset that Plane & Pilot was giving away.

This makes sense. This administration makes a priority of silencing dissent
and then believing their policies are wonderful because they hear no complaints... "Stu Gotts" wrote in message ... Probably the rudeness is escalated with the airline's newly formed Nazi powers given to them by your federal government. In other words, NEVER complain while you're in the air. It may be cause for arrest! Was this flight from the mainland? IF not, why do you need to watch a movie for a 40 minute flight? I just returned from the Islands 1 week ago and had good service on both Hawaiian and Aloha airlines. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure your experience sucked. The worst service I received on our flight was our last hop home on Northwest. Talk about rude customer serivce. Oh well, too bad an airline reputation is made by the person making the lowest amount an hour in pay. Don't remember the bad time, but remember the fun you had with your girlfriend. |

The last time someone in the airlines tried that with me, a press badge
turned them several shades of grey. They don't think the government will do something against you. What they think is that the threat of such will make people shut up and give the employee his/her ten second power trip, and that if you do complain, no one will listen and your complaints will be dismissed into the round file. Countering that with the threat of having several hundred thousand people hear about their actions the next day, with their names attached (which I have already done several times, with great success), works wonders. By the same token, it is important that we as the consumer community, don't just walk around with chips on our shoulders. The vast, vast majority of TSA employees have exactly one thing on their mind -- doing their jobs right in order to protect lives. If you treat them with respect, you'll be surprised how much respect they will show to you. Many of the airline ticket counter and flight crew employees have taken huge pay cuts to help keep the airlines in business and keep their jobs. That causes a lot of stress, with the associated consequences. When you are treated well, you should also take the time to write to the company and tell them about it.

And FWIW, people have been arrested for popping a gasket on commercial flights for many years (though it does seem to be more common, but that's probably because there are more tightly wound passengers these days). But I'll give you another chance - give us a cite of the regulations you allude to. I am still entirely in the dark as to what has changed.
