Please tell us your post is an April Fool's joke.

If not, you ******ed up-- big time.

If you were the CA or FO and you did this-- shame on you. You're supposed to be a leader, you should know better.

Cheers,

I was too busy being squeezed against the side of a CRJ by a grotesquely fat passenger to think of any april fools jokes to play on anyone. Not one of my finest deadheading hours.

Allow me to jump on the bandwagon.

Why would you let passengers sit and get angry for 10 minutes while you laugh like a 6 year old up front?

I hope that "chick" called and filed a complaint, you are doing nobody any favors.

If this is true, I'm sure the AWAC pilot group doesn't appreciate this as it makes them look unprofessional. Well, one of them anyway.
