I once flew with a furloughed US guy who kept his hat on all the way to cruise alt. Then has asked if I thought it would be OK if he took his hat off now? I said "um, ok..."
Off came the hat, the dude had a pony-tail down to his arse. We actually had some good times as the line bid paired us up routinely. |

Flying the barber pole
More of a pet peeve. My USAFR brethren who find themselves with extra gas coming back from a Europe TDY and decide to fly the barber pole for 7 hours on the NATS because nobody is stopping them. Dude, you’re saving like 15 minutes and burning 12,000 extra pounds of gas. You’re not maverick, it’s bad for the environment, and guess who’s paying for it? YOUR tax dollars.

I qualify for one of the above. I welcome Capt doosh to try that on me. I will probably ignore him while ordering a cocktail. :D
guy. Pretty funny really as he had boarded in uniform but had changed to something more comfortable for a North Atlantic flight. He was up front too. Upsetting for me as I had to actually make a Captain like decision . |
