Also when you read the article, its a pretty lukewarm statement the person made "I would get on it, but I dont know if I would put my family on it". That is a lot different than "THIS IS UNFIT TO FLY DO NOT GET ON".

If you're going to call out a misrepresentation then maybe don't do it yourself? He didn't say he "doesn't know" if he would do that. He said "No. Not in a million years."

He says both of those things, with the "No, not in a million years" qualified by "Would I send my family on a flight right now?", while they are doing testing flights. Is putting family on testing flights for a plane you don't work on routine behavior?
The reporting from myNorthwest is pretty shoddy, it's mostly a right-wing digital tabloid run by a talk radio station. Equivalent to the NY Post.
