"one head, one bottom and a torso cannot possibly fly on its own"

A quote to remember when the French take great pains to arrogantly remind us of their supposed cultural superiority.

It's sad enough that this woman is without limbs through not fault of her own. Maybe we should lay off the jokes about her disability.

Ha Ha I have read all the jokes & this is about a French airline... but...... I think I agree with the airline even if it is French. A person with this horrible handicap would need a full time assistance just to survive. Being on an airline with stewardesses wouldn't lessen this need. I have never had an airline employee who would blow my nose or wipe my butt or hold my drink cup. Who takes care of her when she isn't flying? Besides someone with no arms & legs would slip out of the seat belt.

I work with a quadriplegic who's favorite line for idiots is "I won't stand for that." Stops them everytime.
