....listening to two jackasses next to me spout off about how being a pilot is such an easy job. How the airplanes dont even need pilots. How the computer does it all, and does it better. They would trust a computer landing more than a person, because the computers operating systems dont crash as much as humans do. How they have never seen a pilot leave the cockpit ahead of the pax, because they are prob trying to hide because they are drunk or asleep. I was in uniform, and had to bite my tounge, until they said "hey buddy, do you think these airplanes really need pilots? what do you do up there anyways?" I told him there was plenty to be done in flight. His answer, "what? ring the stewardess for a drink?"

jacka$$.
 
Whatever it takes for him to compensate for his shortcomings, he probably drives a big red sports car that he cannot afford.
 
I get that sometimes too, just ignore them!! The important part is that we all know how important it is to have capable guys/gals upfront.

But if they are people I know I offer them to come along on one of the flight lessons then I stall the plane while the instructor is giggeling the whole time since he know the reason why!!

Next thing I know, they are screaming and telling me to do something. My answer to them: "Oh the plane will do it by itself" You should all see their faces when I give them that answer.
 
So panda express = good food huh? Have a couple around these parts, never ate at any of them though.


They are good eats. Probably the best of what you'll find in an aeropuerto. I fell in love with Pick up Stix when I was out in San Diego....more food same price and great taste.
 
Pure jealousy. Some men seem to feel emasculated around men wearing uniforms, as they FEEL they aren't "the baddest dog in the kennel." No one should feel such things, but some do and react accordingly.
 
Yeah, they were a couple of the biggest tools in the shed. anyways....just seem to rub me the wrong way.

Yeah, and the panda is hands down the best shiz in terminal E. I get the mongolian beef, chow mein, and ss pork.....4.67 with my discount. awww yeah.
 
I'm glad you didn't flip out on them. Pilot should be professional no matter what, ESPECIALLY in uniform. I would have simply walked to their table and told them what needs to be done in a clear and low tone.
 
I would have walked right up to them and said, "If you ever cross me again I'll punch myself right in the face." and walked away.
