Surely that is not the first time you've seen a "felony traffic stop"
on TV.. even if it WAS the first time you may have seen it applied
to a pilot in a plane.

The ground guys did their job, just like they were trained to.
Everyone got to go home alive that night.

Suffice it to say that you are easier to please than I. I expect to go
home alive every night with one exception, and I don't expect that
exception to be at the hands of some paranoid idiot with a badge
over-reacting to what should have been a non-event. Their lack of common
sense is more worrisome than the hazard they misperceived.

Neil,
You are right on the money, perfectly said and totally accurate.
