I love how the person at Resource Center Dallas gives her $.02 about aviation safety.

How much do you want to bet it was the other pilot intentionally holding his finger on the PTT button?

The pilot, James Taylor, has issued a written apology.

The flight attendent union is satisfied and will be dropping their complaint against him, as reported in other sources.
