  1. I never had a “discipline problem” with crew or passengers in 30 years of piloting the “friendly skies” – but you’re dealing with a different mentality these days. Seems many folks today are spring-loaded to the “anger” position and many seem to feel a (false) sense of entitlement, no matter what the situation.

    Pre-911, we – the cockpit crew – could leave the cockpit and address a problem firsthand, which seemed to lower the “heat” no matter what the route or passenger mix, domestic or international. And it didn’t hurt to “stand tall” and be wearing the cap with scrambled eggs on the brim – and have a big Maglite 3-4 D Cell flashlight in your hand, either. (smiles)

    1. Really? Really?

      Poor flight crews, I remember when arguing with one was bad form… Not due to unquestioning conformity, but due to respect for the job they were doing….

      Best Regards.

  3. At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man, I honestly think this is what comes from an entire generation growing up with participation trophies. It’s made them lazy and entitled, with a hyperinflated sense of self. Quick to resolve perceived slights and shattered egos with violence.
