I really should wear mine to the gym just to see what his reaction is....it's probably like a mime on mime bro down-very awkward, yet entertaining.

TOTD: The USAirways Express DCA ops guy that continuously wants to "see me in" to my spot. He also likes to act like he controls Taxiway November. While we're busy on Ground coordinating our way in and out, he's yapping in my ear about holding for aircraft behind...we got it buddy, go back to doing nothing. We stopped calling him ready to taxi just to rattle his cage.

If we are on the topic of the monkey circus that is the DCA commuter ramp, the lady who says "AIRCRAFT CALLING GO" is going to make me insane sooner or later..

Jeez...ok ok i guess im TOTD for jumping the gun and giving the crew benefit of the doubt!!! :P
Maybe it wasn't good. My point was more that they made a judgement call which they were comfortable with. I've seen my fair share of pilots who were scared to make themselves comfortable. Yick.
In any case, is it possible the CA was being a tool? I suppose....
sorry if jumping the gun hurt anyones feelings
