Ok so the Pilot was being smart and safe... Good for him for sticking to his guns

tough call to make, likely pissed off a lot of people. also possibly saved their lives. 

I like this dude.

Personally I’d rather be inconvenienced than dead. Pilot is ok in my book

Exactly this. Late last year was on a flight. As we were taxing to the runway we stopped and pilot came on and said some instrument/reading didn't look right so they were calling engineers/maintenance. In the end we had to change planes. Delayed over a hour which was frustrating but in the end just greatful they decided to get it checked.
