OK. I figured my personal opinion on Airbus jets on a thread about the retirement of Airbus jets in response to another person's opinion about Airbus jets was relevant. Apparently, you think otherwise. The point of the phrase "anecdotes are not data" is to make clear that I am well aware that others' experiences may differ, or that quantitative analysis may contradict my experience.
Also... "an account regarded as... hearsay." Seems like my opinion should count.
