LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — US Airways apologized Monday after a pornographic image was posted on the company’s Twitter feed.

The company often responds directly to disgruntled passengers, but was seemingly unaware that one of its replies included a lewd photograph.

“@thatkatzkat We don’t like to hear this, Alex. Please provide feedback to our Customer Relations team here,” read the tweet, which also included a link to a photo of a woman with a model airplane protruding out of a body cavity.

The airline later removed the tweet and apologized for the incident.

I thought all those news reports about US Airways being in the hole were referring to their financial situation!

I wonder, was the plane’s ‘pinger’ cranked up? 30 day battery life? If so sis, you and your gasher are cleared for take off.

I have seen it also (on a website that should have provided a MUCH better NSFW warning) and it is seriously not good. It wasn’t just NSFW, it was just NS. I can’t believe that anyone could have been stupid enough to have posted it, deliberate or not. I wonder what the real story is here.

“You gotta help me out here! The unquenchable morbid compulsion to look is is almost unbearable!”

Do not do this. Seriously. It’s probably nothing you haven’t seen before (albeit without a model airplane), and you’ve probably seen much better examples of it to boot.
