I Hope I Don’t Fly Out of this Airport… Ever

Published by bgfeener at 4:45 am under advertising

Are these people in the new iPhone commercials telling true stories?

Is it really possible that airline pilots are navigating the skies using Weather.com?

If I was an air-traffic controller, I would be a little ticked off. Is it really true that simply checking on a website can change a three-hour delay to a half-hour delay?

Would I be even more angry if I was a news station meteorologist?  Has the internet made the job obsolete?

I’m terrified of flying. I don’t understand the science. This commercial doesn’t make me feel any better.

UPDATE: BuzzOutLoud from CNet (Episode 610) addresses the issue at about the 37-minute mark and I appreciate the fact that this world has once again righted itself.
