Well, if you don't care how aviation is portrayed in the media, then be my
guest - be ok with it. I'm NOT ok with it.

That's what this temper tantrum is about? You feel that the use of the word
"slam" somehow portrays aviation in a poor light?

A jet friggin' DESTROYED a house. It caused major damage to at least a
couple of others. In what way is the word "slam" inappropriate in that
situation? If aviation is being portrayed in a poor light, it's because a
JET DESTROYED A HOUSE.

Duh.
