Flyin' around flashin' a brown.......

Post by Harry Bagina »

Me and the other pilot had this flight today. You know, the usual stuff, flying around trying to crack each other up in front of the clientel. But he's good, a natural born laugh concealer because he always turns his face toward the side window to giggle like a school girl at her first dance. But let me also tell you, he's talented, talented at dishing out jokes, funny accents, and severly messed up faces. He's like Jim Carrey and Rich Little rolled into a localizer shooting, potbelly packing whacko. He's sublime on a long day.

Today we were flying a repeat customer who is renowned for tipping good cheddar, so we're excited, but like characters from "Mission Impossible", were also focused and determined at trying to real in some nice Double Glouchester Stilton for the upcoming weekend.

As we both reach for the clientel's briefcase at the sametime, we bump our heads, and severely jeaprodize our mission by creating overzealous buffoonery. Our clientel just looked at us like the chumps we were; two side show freaks who snuck out of the red striped tent.

Upon finishing our flight, our clientel tips us a brown each. Were ecstatic! When the clientel left the FBO we walked away and proceeded to dance like two whites guys at a hip-hop club; you know, just not kickin' it very well. My buddy busted a move that reminded me of Carlton Banks from the "Fresh Prince of Bel Air", and I followed suit with my rendition of "Night at the Roxbury."

Upon starting the plane, I called for the checklist, and there he was with his one-huny, using it as a ruler to read each check. I start to laugh and couldnt stop. Upon climbing through FL180 I looked over to see him set his altimeter with the bill draped around the knob. My laughter grew like a sick uncontrollable desease. We level off, and now I look and lose it entirely. There he is all poker faced making a radio call to center with the bill stuck between his mike and his lips. Finally he clipped the brown to the control column, and read it like it was the Loc BC of CIBC, "Yeah, effective 2004 in Ottawa, were good to 1400 feet on the south side of Parliment, but no circling man!"

Ahh yes, I love a good tip once in a while. But I think I love more a good, clinically insane person to fly with.

I once got lake trout as a tip. If I wasn't flying around by myself maybe I could have had some fun with it like that. Making 6-7 calls with a lake trout fillet between my mouth and mic doesn't sound quite as fun though.

Endless, I wonder what the currency for fish is? Perhaps a pickeral is $20 / A trout is equivilent to a $10/ and a Musky is a loony. I guess you got a $10, nice work.

350 TT, Im happy I made you laugh all by yourself in public, its fun to do it yet embarrassing all at once isn't it? I think we all need to adopt an offical "Laugh by yourself in public day!" COULD YOU IMAGINE THE INSANITY!? His first initial wasnt S. though.

One time in chip lakes, I received from the asian family who ran the school a couple of frozen whitefish and two very dead birds in a garbage bag. (grouse perhaps?, I dunno but they still had their guts-feathers on 'em!). So jazzy thinks to himself... what the f**k am I gonna do with this. It's still probably in the feeezer in the freight shed.

I once received a box of girl guide cookies... the mint patties one, very yummy. Didn't last long.

Say, what's with this "CFI gets 75%" rule?! :?

My passengers tend to tip me with alchohol. I don't know why but they never seem to hand it to me though. They just leave a mickey or something in the seat back. I guess they're shy.

Hey Rudy, is it half drank, or do they really mean to leave it for you? I love gifts of the boozin' nature because it makes me feel more in control of the aircraft and I feel real confident inside!:D

Rudy, don't lie to us. We all know the reserves in North Western Ontario are all Dry. There's no way any kind of booze would ever make it up there.
