Thoughts? Pushback clearance not required, but...

My new favorite airport, GDL…

I’m probably one of those oddballs who actually likes flying into ORD and ORD overnights.

It’s where I’m having an affair. I cheat on my wife Sbarro with my girlfriend, Giordano’s.

Mmm, Giordano’s. Finally you have some good taste! Also check out Lou Malnati’s if you like them.

P.S. I actually agree that Sbarro’s is pretty good.

I like to think of myself as a GA guy who happens to fly airliners, but I know I don’t do enough GA flying anymore.

With that said, you’ll get no argument here. 121 guys, in general, flip out on non-towered airports.

This doesn’t include the SE Alaska regulars. I consider myself a regular but I’m not a master like a few of the captains I regularly see.

So yeah we are dealing with the FSS, traffic calls, HFR clearances and even a few local traffic call outs on a common frequency for VFR traffic on top of it all.

It’s pretty wild at times, for 121 ops.

Stahhhhp. Your gotta be more subtle with your trolling

I’m serious. Sbarro’s isn’t that bad. Is it the best NY style pizza around? No, but it beats what you can find in the average city in America.

Anything but boss works for me.

Im particular to calling the captain “chief-a-rooney” in order to let them know I respect their position but I’m also not here to put up with any malarkey.

The things I’ve called my Captains over the years would make most of your heads explode:
Captain
Cap
Skipper
Boss (Hoss never took)
Dude
Your Dude-ness
Duder
Duderino
Jefe
Bro
My Man
Admiral
etc…

I just want you (and all of them) know that it comes from a place of Love. Sure, it may get on your nerves, but c’mon. Do you really think none of your mannerisms ever annoy anyone!?

Heck yeah…. Pizza time!

Don't think I've ever had Sbarro's.

you more a Taco John’s fan?

 

[tcco94]

I certainly wouldn’t. I found it annoying. But he’s the boss.

Just doing it vs going against is going to create more work and annoyance for myself

 

[tcco94]

That's cool. My manual says nothing about that. And it was a comment in general about flying with totally out of touch captains that want to micromanage the conversation with ATC when it's their leg (or on the ground in an non PF/PM operation).

My favorite is when they ask you a question everyone knows like “what runway do you want” or HCF asking which runway you are LITERALLY holding short of and they say “RUNWAY 3” in the background.

thanks, Cap

What's Taco John's?

 

[DeltaAlphaNovember]

It has been years since I've eaten at a Taco John's. There was one in Ottumwa, IA and was not bad from what i remember.

Is that in Canada?

 

[DeltaAlphaNovember]

Sorry. Ottumwa, Iowa.

Now I’m know where we’re going if we ever meet in person.

 

[Toobdrvr]

Once, we were cruisin along and ATC asked for ride conditions. Capt looks over at me and says “Smooth”

“Uhhh, thanks”…
