It Finally Happened…

[killbilly]

Standing on the LIRR this morning en route to the AirTrain, a guy sitting a few feet away looks up at me. We are the only two people in the train car at 0430. He’s dressed in what I would call “security guard casual.”

“Hey, are you a pilot?”
I nod. “That’s right.”
“Something I’ve been meaning to ask one of you guys…is the world flat?”

For a split second I pause, wondering if he’s messing with me, but Spidey sense says no. His eyes are guileless, his voice sincere. He really wants to know.

I chuckle a little. “No,” I say, and smile. “It’s not.”
“Oh, ok. Sometimes I hear pilots say that but I was never sure.”
“Yeah, I think they just like messing with people. I assure you, it’s not flat.”

He smiles widely, seems satisfied. “Okay, thanks man.”

Train pulls into Jamaica and we part ways.

Guys, quit messing with people. They’re buying it. There’s a law of unintended consequences here.

My mom once asked me "I know you probably can't talk about it, but what do you know about chemtrails?"

When someone looks at me conspiratorially and asks if they can ask a question I reply “it’s round.”

On those Facebook posts with a flight radar screen shot asking what a plane is doing (usually survey) I like to use my authoritative knowledge as an ATC to confirm that’s a typical chemtrail spray pattern. I also, for their own good of course, tell them how popular tourist spots such as the beach or amusement parks are generally targeted so that the tourists bring it home with them so they should avoid those.

You really wanna mess with people, tell them, "they don't need to spray, it's actually an additive they put in the fuel. You'll see guys spraying these little cans into the wings of turbo props everywhere if you go look for it, but mostly it's pre-mixed on the truck."

Then you gotta combine theories so they build on each other. Sure, jet fuel may not melt steel beams, but do you know what’s in the chemtrail mix?

This happened to me on a DH at Spirt. I just showed him the attitude indicator blew his mind.
