Kudos to this gentleman. It seems simple kindness and understanding is in short supply these days.

"Grace, sat in one row, while Mouland and 3-year-old Kate, who has autism, sat behind them."

Yet another example of news sources using "has ___" language in reporting disability. I mean, I could point out how tolerance of others' particular needs should be a societal expectation not worth putting in the news, and that the only reason stories like this become newsworthy is the general disrespect that society generally throws at disabled people makes kindness seem remarkable by comparison, but then again, making those points over and over (and I'm not the only one) gets tiring.

Unacceptable. This is for discussing aviation, not your personal spamming site.

Very true. I see the exact message all the time but from different profiles. I'm thinking that they get reported and banned but proceed to create a new profile and continue spamming. It makes me angry to think that someone would use a website like this for their own (inappropriate) usage.
