-walk by gate from ATL terminal. See FO from at best 50yards.
- Fill with Rage
- walk up to gate agent, explain that you are a check airmen not on the list, you need access to the jet bridge to berate a pilot for wearing non standard jacket. Overcome the dumbfounded look and ignore the eye roll.
- scan badge
- walk down jet bridge
- hopefully check for passengers, start yelling at whoever comes into sight first.
- explain who you are, previous military rank included
- pull out ipad, tape over camera.
- open aerodoc, login because we are Delta,
- go to bookmark, you know he’s got uniform standards bookmarked
- make both pilots read the reference
- walk away satisfied, excited to tell story at the LCA meeting how you were the hero of uniform standards.
Yeah not happening, easier to tell your friends you heard about this happening. Friend posts on APC
