Default The most annoying thing about your aircraft

What is the one thing you change about the aircraft you fly? Performance, trips the aircraft is sent on, pay rate, the autopilot???? Just curious

The prop noise makes me want to sleep.
And carrying on conversations with hot chicks in the back is pretty hard too. First because it's loud, 2nd because they look at you all slant eyed and say "yoU fly thEsse?"

I'm an FO and my right arm freezes on the 737 when cold AC is needed.

But I have to say that the most annoying thing about "my" aircraft is that I am responsible for flying the 300, 500, 700, 800, 900, and 900er. Its not a total reinvention of the wheel between them all but the classics vs the NGs is is bit awkward after along time away from the other. And that we fly the NGs with analog displays.

Other than that I like the plane.

The most anoying thing about my aircraft is the ninety year old flight attendants.

They carry too much gas, and have landing lights.

The most annoying thing about the CRJ is that it's on a regional seniority list.

The highest threat of this flight segment is "management"...
