I haven't watched this channel recently, but from what I saw I the past he seems to have a bias of reassuring the public that air travel is safe and problems are uncommon and usually not as bad as they might seem to the uninitiated. E.g. airline mechanics on the wing applying "duct tape" is normal, not shoddy maintenance.
I agree. I was going to write a similar comment. The guy is slightly in the "FAA is always right" camp, so I got surprised that he disagree now. He must be really worried.
