Only on APC. Wow. Must have a long overnight. Something us lower class citizens wouldn't know about.

And I ****** in my pants.

APC is way better when you've had some beers.

Herky, relax. My comments had absolutely nothing to do with the mainline versus regional drama that is so prevalent on here. I masked my company and number just so I wouldn't have to worry about any hate coming down on my end.

I'm sorry if you're jaded and feel that way. This wasn't a big jet little jet thing ... was just about two pilots who were up to shenanigans and got called out on it.

FWIW, I didn't read that into it. KC10's posts on other threads/topics make me give him the benefit of the doubt as to his intentions.

Who knows, maybe somebody will read this and think twice...or not.

But while we're at it. Who were the tools in front of WN3749 for Rwy28 at BNA today? Didn't have their T/O Data ready, when tower told 'em to pull over, they blatantly did so at a snail's pace effectively blocking full length r/w access for us. Oh well, got the U1 intx departure anyway...thanks for the needless pimp (offending airline name intentionally left out...it ain't about the carrier, it's about the dork inside that was driving).

OK, now I am a dork for whining about stupid stuff. I only have another hour to kill for my commuter flight home...what to do, what to do?

It's true, APC is much better after a few... (Though, I've also been there when you're desperately trying to make a commute...) Nothing more frustrating than taxiing in and watching your last chance to get home push off the gate...

This is very "flightinfo-esque"

This is ridiculous. Was KC10's intention to say ASA pilots are horrible frequency hogs? If so, I think the airline you are talking about is "Delta Air Lines." Can I say "How long's the final?" or "Wind Check?"

I'm reminded of an awesome exchange over a center frequency a few weeks ago:

AirTran : "Jax Center, Good Morning, Citrus XXX at 310."

Jax Center: "Citrus XXX, Good Morning, How are the rides at 310, I havn't had any questions or complaints."

AirTran: "I guess you havn't had any delta pilots this morning"

long pause (and me laughing in the cockpit)

AirTran: "The ride is smooth for Citrus XXX"

Here's another jaded individual. NO, I didn't say that about ASA pilots in general. I was bringing up the two dorks (coined from someone earlier, thanks) who were driving up front and behaving like a bunch of whining, blabbing, idiots.

Get some skin man ...
