all kidding aside, on an ALPA meet and greet in the crew room a few years ago there was a guy saying just that. He walked up to the ALPA guy who said in so many words "so is there anything you want us to be looking at?" "Yeah, get rid of the Airbuses."

And then later he told his friend that whole engine shutdown sequence at a volume, and this is why I even mention it, that was intended to be heard by everyone. His friend looked embarrassed.

A guy in my Navy squadron once flew commercial to Portland Oregon when he was supposed to go to Portland Maine for a TDY school. Or maybe it was the other way around - either way wrong Portland. :eek: Oops!

I think that one would be pretty tough to beat.
