I think there's a huge difference between laughing at someone for being an idiot, and bringing stuff like this to the CP and personally sabotaging careers.

I said it would be "awful"...

I'm certain he was performing his job as PM fully while holding that approved cockpit electronic device up to the window.

Not that it makes a difference as far as legality re: PEDs in critical phases of flight, but I've heard from a friend of mine that lots of aircraft are put together such that you can put a smartphone up there recording video and have it stay without holding it.

I've always wondered what would happen to someone's career if they...
A - Lied on their application
B - Claimed to "own up to it in the interview", when that didn't happen
C - Proclaimed "I flew the 175 at Skywest for 3 years"
D - Got found out and shown the door, for lying.
Not saying "that happened"...just a hypothetical post on an evening,

Honestly, as the PIC, there's no way in hell I'd allow that to happen.
Unless of course I'm doing it!

So funny story. Just flew with a guy who friended me on Facebook. His profile picture was an Air Beachball 747 with terribly photoshopped fireworks behind it. I was going to explain the significance, but when I thought it over I thought it seemed a bit "you had to be there."

Back before smart phones could take videos a...uh...guy I know made a glareshield mount for his point and shoot camera by supergluing a tripod mount to a potato chip bag clip. Worked extremely well!
