I had to chuckle as I said " all our landings are full stops". As a former fighter guy I have to admit I benefited greatly from riding side saddle my first year, the regional guys have the airline flow down when they come here.

When I was going through right seat KC135 school at Castle AFB, the day they paired us up with our new Aircraft Commanders, mine looks at me with a very stern face and says, "Do you drink?"
I'm thinking...hmmm...why is he asking me this? He looks pretty straight, I wonder if I should fake it....nah, screw it, I'm in the Guard, what can he do to me?
So I answered, "Only to excess!"
He smiled broadly and said, "Good! I'm sick and tired of these Axxholes who don't drink!"
We had a lot of fun together going through Castle, and 3 years later he got hired at Delta as well.
