But there is a certain ATLM88 captain who--on EVERY leg, mind you--makes a cruise PA about how burning jet fuel is good for the environment.
Sounds pretty psycho to me.
...Who is countered by the guy (per my last F/O, who flew with him) who after every leg, literally empties the cockpit trash out of the gray bag, then REUSES the gray bag, all to "conserve."

That's almost as funny as the kool aid hero CA who makes PA's to pax about how and why they should buy carbon offsets.

All the while there is about 30 feet of flight paperwork piled in the cockpit.

I rode in the JS while an 88A announced that our 90 was equipped with a biofuel retrofit and the more gas it burned the better it was for the planet. Same psycho?

Maybe the thought is the more the jet runs, the more hours it accumulates, the sooner it gets put out to pasture?

Where is the secret place we learned in Indoc that they show the amount of chemtrail loaded on the WDR? You know, the stuff they pump in with the yellow hose?

I never can remember, and also, is the government income still listed on the financials as bag fees?

Guys. This really isn't the place to be discussing classified info. Use the APC site on the dark web. Remember what they taught us in that Area51 video?

It never was, they use the secret ramp in JFK to unload pallets of cash. IT could never figure out how to add it to the system as a bag fee. Hell, the whole system has crashed a couple times the last few years, when they tried to update the system for something as simple as flat earth variation.



In other news, check out this cool historical F-15 picture I found
