I'm a pilot and read that magazine frequently, but I would have dared them to say something, as the Peel Police who work at YYZ would have likely arrested the crew for creating a disturbance had they called the police on me for my choice of reading material.
See if you can find a copy of EAA Warbirds in an FBO pilots lounge somewhere. Civilians flying privately owned military aircraft? Horrors!
