dear disney:

do you expect me, a loyal duck tales and disloyal darkwing duck viewer, to believe that launchpad mcquack would be hired by the richest duck in the world and then a superhero? not only is mcquack incompetent, but he repeatedly gets the world’s most important ducks into dangerous situations. i can only draw the conclusion that scrooge mcduck fired his sorry ass and that’s how he ended up working for darkwing duck.

i cannot, however, believe that darkwing duck, would not at least conduct a reference check. perhaps these important ducks have some hidden death wish and hope that mcquacks shoddy piloting skills will one day kill them. i don’t know the inner-physiology of scrooge or darkwing, what i do know is that you (disney) are doing a terrible job justifying launchpad. he crashes his airplane in every episode.

what self-respecting man would put his daughter/nephews into harms way in a week-daily fashion? in the real world mcquack would be fired for incompetence, develop a gambling problem and then wind up dead in some guy’s trunk.

but you aren’t interested in the real world or it’s repercussions. instead, disney, you are justifying careless behavior to children and future pilots all over the world. for shame disney, for shame.

Signed,

deeply disappointed

p.s. tale spin sucks.
