While climbing into the driver seat in a Caravan about a year ago the lady a few seats back says: "You don't even look like you are old enough to drive!" I say, "I'm not, my mommy drops me off at work!"

Passenger: Your airplane sure is small
Me: If yours bigger we can take it.

Oh yeah? If I parked it in your front lawn would you think so?

Or.....rub it, it'll get bigger.

My two favorites:

"Is this thing safe?"

Well no, actually, not even close but we thought we'd board everybody and go fly anyway.

While in full uniform: "are you a pilot?"

No...

Standing in front of our layover hotel in BOS last summer. A guy drives up the front desk arrival area tosses his car keys to me and tells me to handle it for him.

Getting deiced one night I am ridding DH in uniform. Lady sitting next to asks how come we aren't leaving yet I reply that they need to spray the other side before we can go. Lady says "Well I'm going to be late isn't one wing good enough!"

Great thread! Also remember, all of these people are allowed to vote and breed - which explains a lot...

Destination was below minimums in fog so we couldn't leave. Two passengers caught me in the terminal and said, "We really need to get there. Can't we sign something that says your not responsible?"

Walking to the airport hotel in IND in about 2006 at 1100PM, had a guy get out of his pickup truck and flag us down trying to buy a ticket so he could go bail his friend out of jail in FL.

Asks where he can buy an Eastern Airlines ticket. "Yep, dropped my friend off in 198x in FL and now he's in trouble so I gotta go bail him out. I really liked that Eastern Airlines. So can I just buy a ticket from ya'll?"

Don't know if he ever made it to bail his buddy out but I'm fairly sure he hadn't ever heard of a phone or the internet.
