So here is the picture of Captain Flanagan being exposed to FlyerTalk.

While I was taking a shower on Friday afternoon Captain Flanagan went to Starbucks with a few FT'ers, and I remember being told that he referred us as the Trekkies of the flying world. Someone please correct me if I am wrong or give the exact phrase he used, but I found that pretty darn funny!
