Homophobic/misogynistic pilot rants obscenely on ATC channel, airline forgives him

     "A Southwest Airlines pilot has been suspended after he accidentally
      broadcast his conversation about the "fags" and "grannies" that he
      works with as flight attendants. This man should really never be
      allowed to fly a plane again."

A little problem with a stuck PTT switch on the mic, it seems.

I find it ironic that Anthony Weiner was forced to resign from
Congress, while this jerk was forgiven by his airline and is still
flying.  I for one am not comfortable with an assh*** of this
magnitude having the privilege and responsibility of so many human
lives in his hands.
