Guess that's what happens when you don't treat people well enough to be able to hire all good people. You have to hire sketchballs too.
Wrong!!! In fact, you couldn't be more wrong.

Does not shed a good light on humans!
Didn't Mesaba have a guy show up on "To Catch a Predator" with Chris Hanson?
A guy in my sister squadron got popped for child porn. An Air Force officer. Decent salary. Insane. Now the dude's in Leavenworth.
One of our sheetmetal guys in my unit in the service got busted for this. Coming through customs in Kuwait. Not only a slimeball- but also retarded.
We never saw him again. He never made it back to the unit, and that was the last anybody ever heard of him. Good riddance.
Special place in hell for these types.
One of the pilot training students when I was at Columbus wound up on To Catch a Predator. He was like 21, 22 and he was heading up towards Memphis to meet what he thought was a 14 y.o. girl with condoms... and a half a gallon of ice cream. I don't know how exactly he thought he would bridge the subject from one to the other. Sick, sick, sick.
Oh, and while we are on embarrassing/stupid things pilots do to shame themselves and their companies ... did any of you hear the story about Tim Martins? He was an American Eagle guy who claimed to be an F-16 pilot, volunteer firefighter, volunteer at his church, etc. ALPA magazine did a whole article about him (scroll to pages 22 & 23) just a couple of months ago, and then found out that he lied about pretty much all of it. He never joined the military, never joined the firefighters, a lot of his logbook time was faked, etc., etc. The article is no longer on their website.
That might be old news to this forum, but I just found out about it like a week and a half ago. Kiddie porn is a whole different scale of sick, though, but still.
Yes. Martins was huge news here.
But I mean really.........if you're going to impersonate a USAF fighter pilot, why would you pick such a gay community as the F-16 community?![]()
Yeah, man. Them and the 117's are the ....oops.
Just kidding.
.
117 is just a dead community, unfortunately. Then again, I guess if Martins wanted to go all out, he could've gone for the 15C community...![]()
"I was in one of the last classes at Atlantic Coast Airlines," Martins recalls, "but I was furloughed after 8 months, so I joined the New Jersey Air National Guard." He flies F-16s as a member of the 177th Fighter Wing, which is based in Atlantic City, N.J.; F-15s might be next.
Agreed, I think the fact that this guy was a pilot doesn't change the fact that he is a sick human being.
Hey Hernandez, the gal on Tony Soprano's lap - does she have id? :joke:
Don't forget the incident of the Pinnacle pilot and FA getting busy in the bushes, losing there clothes, breaking into a Fire department suburban to steal a flashlight, walking down the street in the buff, and getting arrested.
You three companies make up an interesting bunch.![]()
