• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Duct taped passenger

I don't have a problem with that. The moron is lucky he wasn't subjected to more forceful treatment while being subdued, like punched in the throat or strangled with a belt. Airplane passengers and crew aren't real tolerant of nutty in-flight behavior in this post 9/11 world.

I never have been tolerant of nutty behaviour on any form of public transport. Fortunately in Australia we don't seem to have that problem on our aircraft but it is different on our long distance trains and interurban commuter trains. People with iPods plugged into their ears and you can still hear the noise they call music.

But my greatest gripe is, you guessed it, mobile phones. Constant ringing no matter what carriage you are in and the person using it thinks the person on the other end is completely deaf so they are talking at the top of their voice.
