OKAY! For the 3rd time since the forum doesnt want to acknowledge my previous posts!!!!!:banghead:
Okay, so my trip to Toronto was this past few days. Got back last night.
To much anticipation, the 25 dollar a ticket upgrade for an earlier flight worked. We (dad and i) got the dreaded SSSS on our ticket. They basically did everything but make us bend over. They checked every crevice. Anyways, onto the flight. The LAX-ATL segment was pretty filled. There was alot of crewmembers on the flight though! At least 10 pilots, and 10 F/A's.
After the landing, we went over to catch some breakfast at some bagel sandwich shop while facing the tarmac of CRJ's and ATR's. Definately awesome, since it was nice and early in the morning and watching the rush of jets! After a small delay with our CRJ we hopped onboard. I love this plane!!! It was just so comfortable for me, consdiering im 6'2. Only thing that the headroom lacked. Uneventful nonetheless.
After our awesome time in toronto, it was time to come back.
Our flight to CVG got cancelled so off to rochester it was. After getting again the SSSS on the ticket, we checked our bags. This was weird now. The lady asks my dad "Have you declared your weapons that are in this bag?"
Ummm what the hell?! My dad said what weapons are you talking about...
Anyways, off to SSSS screaning again. This time, the people were really nice, and pretty funny too.
So our flight to ATL was crazy turbulent. Honestly it was really intense...
Anyways, after our greaser in ATL everyone deboarded and i ran up to the flightdeck. The captain was an old timer with 8000 hours! The F/O had somewhere around the region of 1300 hours, but was hired around 800 hours i believe. I got some pictures, but the captain was hesitant of me taking the pictures, but was re-assured by the F/O.
Then on to our ATL-LAX segment. We had some time in between so we got some Paschals! Pretty damn good! Then on to our flight for a full load. Our surprise for the time though, was the hiphop/R&B group B5 was sitting in front of us! So the flight passed and it was our descent into LAX.
After a great landing, i again ran up to the flight deck. The captain welcomed me open arms! Showing me around the flight deck and everything. I snatched a picture and we talked a few minutes. He gave the BEST words of wisdom and really boosted my morale. He said basically to just hang in there, and never give up on your goal and eventually - one day - you'll see the result and enjoy it most. He was surprised when i told him im 15 and doing lessons here and there. Anyways, i deplaned and waited by the bathroom for my dad. The captain walked by and shouted out in front of a LARGE croud "See ya later Shervin - Keep your head up!"
Everyone just stared at me with a weird look like "you know the captain or somethin?" I just stood there in a pretty enjoyable mood!
So thats the end to the delta trip. It was awesome. Kudos to delta!
The CRJ is now my favorite small plane!
Now seriously...what's going on.
