Buy more damned cookies then...and DO NOT hide them from freight dawgs!!!

Also please do close your flight plan after you get to the gate, shut down, call your baby momma, and then remember there is somebody still holding because you are a jerk!


I put that in there since everybody else keeps bringing that thread up!

When I'm hanging out at the FBO, the Freight Dawgs are always my favorite to chat with. Their stories always begin with " There was this one time in solid IMC at night (insert potentially life ending event)". And the girl at our FBO bakes the cookies herself....mmmm

Uh, I bet that smelled nice and ripe. I got into an airplane in the middle of July that had a half eaten Sonic Chili Coney with extra onions left on the seat. Judging by the odor it had probably been there a few days.

Airline guys who hold onto their IFR flightplan after landing at a non-towered field, and taxi all the way back to the gate before closing it.

Thats because you cancelled your IFR prior to taxiing back to the gate.

And thats even with the non-userfee paying Part 91 guys complaining.

If 91 wants service, they need to pay.

:D

Stereotypes are funny for a reason, but you can't really use them to win an argument of logic. :p

I've been having mad fun on my layovers lately. I love it when mainline flightcrews slam-click because they don't stay up after 8 pm anymore.

If leaves their flight attendants bored and lonely down by the pool..... :D

Oh, so we want to compare F/A's by the pool???:insane::beer: Maybe I'll try to see what I can find in my camera, because I am on a standby laptop. If not, it'll have to wait until I get home in August.

:yeahthat:...also, this may be pushing it for some, but not securing the seat belts when done with the plane. You open the door and it just hangs out.

We don't do it in our skyhawks with airbags... but the 172RG, I make sure to do so :)

That's because the last time I was at the pool with some mainline FAs, Greenpeace showed up and tried to recruit me to help with the beached whales....:cwm27:
