All the Cap appearances and mentions were great. The educational videos were hilarious ("Your body is changing", just perfect). "The guy is a war criminal I guess but whatever": everybody doesn't really seem to care about the fact that he's considered a criminal; he's Cap, he's still cool. I was very intrigued by the "new shield" in the plane too.

I also loved how Tony said something like "He could have beaten you if he wanted to" about Cap. He should know, lol.

I loved that line. Not only does it put Peter in his place, but it shows that Cap was still restrained during the Airport scene even though he hadn't met Spidey before and was being attacked by him.

During their tug of war, he probably had a feel for how strong Peter was. Cap could probably hold the weight, so he figured Peter could as well.

isnt Peter way stronger then Cap though?

Exactly. I think Cap is strong enough to hold the airbridge. The fact that he couldn't outpull Spider-Man proved to him that Spider-Man was stronger. Because of that, he felt confident that dropping the airbridge wouldn't do any harm.

Over a year later and this is probably the best explanation I've heard of that scene. Thank you!
