You have no idea how many times I thought about interjecting. Especially since he mentioned 3 or 4 times that he was a 1K.

"Sir, I'm a 1K too, and a pilot, and it's not up to you to decide whether the plane is airworthy. I suggest before you insist on delaying this plane full of passengers further to satisfy your ego you spend some time learning how things actually work."

He got plenty of eye rolls instead, from not just me.
