Latest offer from FedEx management: We know it sucks here, we worked out an offer for you guys to go to PSA instead!

Just last night, was giving a checkride to an older guy who not only knew how to properly navigate with an RMI needle, track vice home, but actually incorporated it in the instrument enroute and into the full approach holding pattern course reversal as a second means of course tracking. It was refreshing to see.
I actually had the thought while cranking through the multiple choice systems exam on the iPad today (no oral on the initial anymore) “this can’t be the same brain that was drawing the full electrical system on the Duchess when I was doing my multi”

The 7 and 9's are merely sufficient, better than a 737, but no one's using that jet as a gold star in PaxEx.

I look forward to taking scrap metal from the last -200, then fashioning it into a captain's tankard and drinking strongly-poured cocktails out of it.

Your homeboy ordered 200 MAX10s. You will fly on them and like it :)
 
“Daddy Delta”!!!

That’s a story over beers lol

I literally have booked connecting flights instead of a long transcon on a 737 when I'm using my own money for tickets.

I did, however, book a MCO-YVR nonstop because it was literally my only option to get to Canada in time for an event, but that was absolute hell. Orlando was hell enough, the airport was a deeper level of hell, but that flight… ungh.
 
Have you been on a CRJ 100/200 as a passenger? They really don't give a crap how fun it is to fly or 'trailing link gear' or how smooth you could land after the Stutka-esque dive bomb attack on the runway threshold.

Yeah. None of that matters when your balls are sticking to your knee because it’s 100 degrees on the plane in April

You have some really saggy balls if they are sticking to your knee. I don't know if it is something serious -- like a four hour boner -- but you may want to get it looked at.
 
Ugh I had to do the walk of shame in the ERJ one day parked on a taxiway while on a ground stop in IAH. Eyes down past 50 souls to the hole in the back.

No vacuum flush in those days 😬
The passengers should be thankful that the lav is in the back.

I have only had to poop on an airplane once. It was in a SAAB 340 on the way to Portland. That was unpleasant.

Smart, every time I fly one of these boss hogs to HI, I peek back on the bathroom break and wonder how miserable people are. I mean, riding a middle seat on a 737 for 5+ hours sounds like the worst thing I could ever imagine. It's safe and you'll save money, probably, but my interest in HI would never be significant enough to justify that kind of pain
