  1. I hope this young dude sues and doesn't get discouraged in anyway because of careless ableism society in America. Run for political office and change the laws to be more inclusive.

  2. They need to start making 1 available spot on all major aircraft to park an electric wheelchair (battery disconnected in flight) & charge an extra fee for this. Aircraft manufacturers can get this done, no problem. Get ahold of FAA & see if they have anything against this.
