But when entire pages are "Bro", it looks immature. And believe me I know what a Bro is, a Mad Dog, a 3-Holer, Diesel 9, ****er 100, Tritanics, Jungle-Jet, Dork-Jet, Scare-Bus, Lawn Dart, E-180 and a death tube are. Been around a while.




I'd actually love to hear what each of those are... 3-Holer is probably one of the Trijets. Diesel 9 - DC9? Scarebus is Airbus. The others I really don't know. Also, "click it-lock it" and "slam-clicker"?
A slam clicker is someone who doesn't do anything with the crew on overnights. They close their door (slam) and lock it. (Click)

Honestly, here I'm a slam clicker, I don't like to waste my money on beers with people I have already spent the entire day with.

Usually the age gap between myself and captains here is so great the last thing I want to do is spend another hour at the bar with them.

I'm sure that'll change when I upgrade, I'll be making more money and I bet I'll be flying with guys and gals that are more my age.
