The Panthers are awesome. This is what you get when you have an owner who has the patience to build a franchise and not go for immediate gratification.

I'd bet the Panthers are going to be a power for the next 5 years.

Are those off-color euphemisms really necessary?

You might be right. But if you're right the unknown guy who said "rrreeeallly?", myself and the guy I was flying with completely missed his humor. And he didn't sound sarcastic, he sounded annoyed.

I know forcing the plane behind you to do a go-around is funny to some, but scared passengers in the back isn't good for business.

If a pax is afraid of something like a go around they probably shouldn't be flying......or ever leaving their padded room. GMAFB

Wouldn't you be happier as a Cargo Caninous operator? You still get to fly, but don't have to have nervous pax try your patience or test you compassion or lack thereof?

More than a few people are afraid/anxious of flying....WITHOUT the added "fun" of a go-around. A bit insensitive to think that makes them worthy of a padded room.
