I was in the back of the 727 one time and fell asleep filling out the cruise card. Made a streak across the card with the grease pencil.
I showed it to the captain and he said, "Hell, boy, when I was back there I fell asleep one night while I was starting the #2 engine...."

So they had to show him on the screen, instead of in person. At least he's consistent.
Fred also came up to the 8 pilots stupid enough to volunteer two days of work for a castaway hat and said "How much money are they paying you guys to get you to show up out here" Also typical

Wasn't that pilot that washed up on the beach an actual FedEx pilot, after a week of hub turns, without makeup?
