Couldnt he have just asked his pilot?
 
Someone once asked me why don't they put ejection seats on commercial aircraft. 🙂
 
We'll just call it even !

Aircraft windows don't open VS. 57 States !

Not sure which one is worse !
 
Me neither, although that was a long time ago and , arguably, just a slip. Romney had a whole conversation. Chasing votes must be exhausting!

But, if he wont chase 47% of them, you wouldnt think so!

If anything Romney was referring to venting the cabin....I don't think its that big an issue when your wife/passengers may be suffocating.

A passenger I was sitting next to told me they felt humiliated by the airline when the seltbelt extention they requested said "Faatso approved" on it. I explained that that wasn't "Fat So" approved, it was "FAA TSO" approved.

All he needs is 51% of them..................Barrack can have the other 49, which 47% he has locked up, no matter what, based on skin color and freebies !
 
Wouldnt it have been timely if someone explained that the cabin pressurization valve could have been open to force masks out and evacuate the smoke but we wanted you to have first hand experience with outsourced aircraft maintenance done in (fill in the blank).

LOL.....I first thought why didn't they dump masks manually ?
Pilot probably a catholic democrat.

Not even close, try your response latter.

Looks like the media pounced and it was on a pile.

From NYMag.com:

The Los Angeles Times story that relayed Romney’s airplane remark to the world was based off a pool report written by the New York Times‘s Ashley Parker. When we asked Parker this morning whether it seemed as if Romney made the mark in jest, she left no doubt. “Romney was joking,” she e-mailed. Parker told us that while the pool report didn’t explicitly indicate that Romney was joking, it was self-evident that he was.​
