Interesting pilot group…..

Uninteresting former federal LEO hack who couldn’t adapt to corporate job skills.

Does this mean that all of the allegations of the lawsuit cited in the article are false?

I’ll tell you this, like @mikecweb said, any large group of employees, pilots included, are going to have various run-ins with the law.

My carrier certainly isn’t exempt.

But generally they disappear pretty quickly off the seniority list.

There’s a difference between run ins and assaulting or raping woman on overnights.

I didn’t make the statement that there wasn’t.

Got the right poster today? Stop telling the eye doc “DEFPOTEC” and truly check that vision.

We had a pilot burn his wife in a van before a trip, where does that fall on the scale?

Of course not, but considering the reputation of the plaintiff, they are suspect

That’s not good.

I always thought we were a cut above, intellectually, as pilots. But we’re basically a bunch of flying truckers shuttling between distribution centers and FlyingJ truckstops.

Hey man... the spice must flow.

(Are we moving on from the Expanse now for scifi quotes? I can probably find an ice hauler one if we haven't yet.)

I quote my own post from the "why I left an airline pilot career" thread

Without airplanes and paychecks, a lot of pilots would basically be your unhinged Druncle saying crazy shhh at Thanksgiving after drinking 15 Coors Lights.

I get burned by my wife before almost every trip I take! That falls into everyday ops for me....

☑︎ periodic physicals
☑︎ dispatch
☑︎ extensive operating regulations
☑︎ piss jugs
☑︎ "go pills" (at least in the military)
☑︎ strange motels

Checks out. I gotta believe there's an FBO-equivalent of "lot lizards," like they had in that TV show, "Wings."

"lot lizards"

Flight attendants

ducks

But with more hookers.

We are a cut above. It even says so on my pilot shirt.

The flip side is working in the world of corporate speak. Some days I'd prefer someone go off on a rant about some group of people just to feel human again.

I guess as long as you’re not part of the group they are ranting about it’s all good…

I had to sit through quite a few to and from TEB and I can assure you: it’s not as fun as you’d imagine.
