Standing ovation at the gate!?

I think it's total bull that you didn't give me one when I gave you a ride home. I'm just saying. :)

Dude, after you gave me a ride home....I made a chiropractor appointment. BAM! Just like the landing. :D

Thanks folks, I'll be here all week!
 
I've gotten a couple.....not because flights were delayed or anything like that. They were chearing because my awesomeness precedes me. They heard Captain Amazing (aka Cruise) would be taking them from AAA to BBB. So, of course I would get an ovation....these people were stoked to be a part of something amazing by being on one of my flights.





:D
I didn't know there was commercial service from Lincoln, IL.

I deadheaded to GNV the other night and had a passenger try and make a joke about me flying the plane while sitting in the back. I looked up at him and told him that yes I was going to fly it from this seat and as soon as he took his seat, they were going to hand me a couple of ropes that were tied to the controls up front so I could fly the flight.

He gave me this weird look and went to find his seat. Didn't hear another word out of him for the rest of the night. :)

I have people ask me if I'm old enough to be flying. I look at them and say "are you kidding?!? I can't even drive!"

That or when they say it's their first time in a small airplane, I say "mine too!"
 
Clearly you haven't flown freight :)
I keed....kinda
Kinda would be correct. I had a UPS Supervisor get pissy with me when I was 1 minute late. Headwind + late driver and the guy takes it out on me being 1 minute late.

I got that last month when I got re-routed at 0200 to fly to AGP instead of CDG.

That's the difference between Brown and Purple!
 
Just got that problem on my last trip. Newark to Providence and we were delayed 45 minutes. We're all standing by the gate just waiting for the paperwork and my Captain is on the phone with Dispatch and these passengers come up to me and say,"The weather here in Newark is fine, the weather in Providence is fine, what's the problem?" "Well after trying to explain the visibility requirements to them, they then say well we heard that all airliners have autoland capabilities. Is that true. I just had to take a big sigh, and told my Captain I'm going to get coffee.

Lol reminds me of the Iphone commercial. I looked at the radar and told company dispatch we needed to delay our departure. Yeah I'm sure the Iphone trumps all other technologies.

Had this sort of situation when my FCO-PHL flight was delayed because it snowed pretty hard in Rome for the first time in 20 something years, so needless to say they can't quite handle it. Everyone was telling their stories about how they barely made it to the airport because of the craziness, yet when the crew shows up they sarcastically started clapping and talking about how "they must have been out partying last night." Yeah, moron, I guess they overslept two hours and got into their snowplow and rode to the airport.
