Trying to get a bonehead to tell Jazz interview panel about being considered for the "Accelerated Command Path" and having a Jazz pilot ruin the thought of someone asking for a quick upgrade during the interview.

If it's a jet, there's a reason for this. We need the wind, temp and QNH for the FMC. Also, we need to know about IFR inbounds because we won't push until we know we can get out without waiting.

In a very intimate moment with another pilot, I said "we're both thinking it, just say it" expecting "i love you" in reply. Instead I got "you're right, when it comes to the A340 and the 747, the 747 is clearly a superior aircraft"

...C'mon man!!!

Better are the occasions where some hooligans in Shamattawa decided to throw rocks at the planes. Turning and doing a run up to throw 10 times as much back at them may have solved the problem.

/had nothing to do with it

Only thing I'd say is let the FSS know how long it will take you to start up. don't call up in the middle of a rush, implying that you can go right away, and then inform FSS after getting the clearance that you can't accept the clearance cancelled time center issued because you won't be ready to taxi until 5 minutes after it expires.

I thought that if you were staying in a crew house, the only thing you were supposed to put your ball down on was somebody else's face (prefferibly while they were sleeping, but some guys have no shame!).

What were you doing that involved balls on the floor?

My Bro gets a call from the boss at about 3 am see you at the airport in an hour "I need to go to Pittsburgh" He jumps out of bed and thinks I should have a bite to eat while filing a flight plan hum what to have, bagel and Philly cream cheese. Some how Pittsburgh turns in to Philadelphia in his wee sleepy brain.

When the boss realizes he is not in Pit he loses it like the Champ................. Cmon Man!

Great thread, really enjoyed reading these!

A few years back when I was instructing, I had an ethnic student who ALWAYS said she understood when she clearly didnt. Started doing spirl dives, demontrasted twice before letting her take the helm. She insisted she new the recovery, so I initiated a spiral dive and told her to recover. Can anyone guess what she did?

1. added full power,
2. tried to recover wings but did so the opposite direction she was suppose to
3. and gave me a heart attack

C'mon Woman...........

After having a chat with somebody on the other side of the fence at YVO airport telling him he sad such a nice A#C, the pilot taxiied out his amphibious 206 and took-off with the tow bar mounted at the front of the floats... I know that you guys and gals know what happened next. When the gear came up it cut the three prop blades about 4 inches from the hub, cut the right wing strut and the aircraft missed one of the 415 by inches before crashing north of runway 36. Pilot escaped fortunately...
