Wahlberg just gave an interview with Men's Journal ... in which he states, "If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn't have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, 'OK, we're going to land somewhere safely, don't worry.'"
TMZ spoke with Deena Burnett-Bailey -- whose husband Thomas Burnett phoned her from that fateful flight saying, "I know we're going to die. There's three of us who are going to do something about it."
Burnett-Bailey tells us, "Does Mark Wahlberg have a pilots license? Then I think hindsight is 20/20 and it's insignificant to say what you would have done if you weren't there. "
She adds, "The plan for Flight 93 was folied by heroes. For him to speculate that his presence on board could have stopped everything is silly and disrespectful. Sounds like someone is grandstanding."
We called Wahlberg for comment -- so far, no word back.
So the question ... is Wahlberg's braggadocio insulting to the dead passengers and their families?
