I was the F/O and no one said a word taxiing in. At the gate the other two crewmembers got out of their seats right after the parking checklist was completed. I stayed in my seat "arranging" my Jepp charts - I just didn't want to face any passengers. Anyway, after the last pax got off, I opened the cockpit door and was a surprise waiting for me.

The 1st flight attendant was standing there with her pantyhose down to her ankles, and she said in a LOUD voice "All right who made that ******ing landing!". The Capt and S/O were almost on the floor they were laughing so hard.

I bought the beer later that night.

I preferred the 727-Adv to the -100.
great story! lol
