I prefer the pilot who said, on one of my flights years ago, things like, “I am your wide bodied pilot for today’s flight. Our arrival in MSP will be approximately 11:45. For you executives, that means that the big hand will be on 11 and the little hand on 9,” and so on.
That was wonderful!
Maybe he flies the Atlanta to Las Vegas route frequently.
There’s an old nautical saying that also applies to the captain of an airliner.
“He might not be God but he’ll do until God gets here.”
A proper title would be “Entitled Instagram User Freaked Out By Normal Flight Instructions.” The pilot did fine. We just live in mad times where stupid people’s opinions are given way too much attention.
