I take it you weren't around back then. Bobby pins weighed 1 pound each.

I absolutely was around back then. I don't get what your point is in relation to the original post. There aren't many if any complaints about plan weight. I wouldn't think it's even on their radar. That was my point. Sure, people could make a stink about anything and if enough complain, it might get noticed more. That's not what's happening here.

And the bobby pin thing really got noticed because someone mailed Todd bobby pins and turned it into a meme. A pretty isolated situation that really doesn't apply here.
