5 year lease then we own them is fairly widely known. No reason to be coy...

I see on Deltanet the pictures of the Longevity Based Pay pride parade. I'll keep looking for tsquare somewhere in that crowd.
Carl
CLASSY!!

Longevity Based Pay, LGB-Pay was also compared, in an attempt at humor, by one of the 777 pilots. (Sorry, don't remember whether it was Scambo or Timbo?)

They later redacted & apologized for the poor attempt at being funny on anonymous web board.

If you're going to take such a classless cheap shot at someone's sexual orientation, and/or one of your fellow pilots on an anonymous web board, the least you can do Carl is be man enough to not use a pseudonym when hiding behind a keyboard.

Regards,
Kyle

I must be slow. I don't see the "classless cheap shot" in Carl's post.
He's just kinda making fun of the alphabetical similarity between LGBT and LGBP.
How is that disrespectful of someone's sexual orientation?

A bit oversensitive tonight, Kyle? We're all big boys and girls here. LBP, previously abbreviated even closer to LGBT as LGBP, is really close to said term. Let's not get over politically correct here because then it's no fun for anyone.

We saw you. Captain asked me if the MD88 was doing Sidney from Atlanta.

Did it look like this?



We did "dial a flap 19" nonsense coming out of LGA once. I swear a fish hit the windshield. We looked like an F4 dropping off a carrier deck before we climbed out with much smoke and noise.

Not oversensitive.

As I mentioned in my previous post, the likeness (closeness of acronyms) was made by one of our very own 777-drivers just a few weeks ago. (He later apologized for the comment.)

I couldn't care less what Carl's orientation is, not anyone else's for that matter.

I just find it a little lacking of Carl's omnipotent presence on this board, and the high standard of truth he holds everyone else to, to be calling someone else out (Tsquare) & making the "low blow" of "looking to see if he's in the picture of the Rainbow Parade".

That's all.

I've met Tsquare and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts he laughed at Carl's post, I know I did. Guess Carl and I can hash out our differences in sensitivity training.

Just because I find nude Burt Reynolds hilarious doesn't mean everyone does ... self edited.
