I'm looking forward to seeing a video of him and his family on this plane, unless this is just marketing speak. It sure would help raise the public image of the FAA and Boeing slightly if they put their money (family?) where their mouth is.

Sounds like an application of the Hammurabi code
You're right. So I raise my bid: Instead of just putting him and his family on one flight, let's put them on one flight per day for a month.
> After that, I flew the aircraft for about two hours to evaluate its handling qualities and the functionality of the flight control system. Now, based on all the activities that we've undertaken during the past 20 months, and my personal experience flying the aircraft, I can tell you now that I am 100 percent comfortable with my family flying on it
So, he done 2 hours of what pilots will do for more hours, every single day they work. He also haven't trusted other pilots, let's say from Ethiopian Airlines, with his family.
Maybe your comment was sarcastic and I missed that. Sorry if that was the case.
To spell it out again, the idea is to put the dude on a long flight with the 737MAX he just recertified.
I'm not against my idea of putting this man and his family on a flight. I'm against starting a gofundme (basically raise money for him) to fund this adventure, when he or his employer should be able to pay for this just fine.
Can I buy you a sarcasm/black humour detector? :)
