OK I just head this second hand from a friend of mine after he upgraded. He was flying with this FO (a man or at least male) and as they were intercepting the ILS they got hit with this major downdraft and the FO screamed so loud that the FA and first 6 rows of passengers heard him.

He got fired.

Oh I agree, but in the massive confines of DFW, where I normally originate, sometimes the closest private area to do this is 10 or more minutes away. All I want is 1 minute of peace to get trip info without someone whining about not having an aisle seat.

Just venting a bit. I guess to the traveling public, anybody in a uniform is a biological kiosk who can accommodate any of their needs at any time.

The guy that signed off this morning from Denver Center with "Toodle-oo!"

My only hope is this was done as part of some wager with the PF.

I don't think the season needed saving yet. It's a typical November blip in form. I wished RA would have waited until at least after the January transfer window and seen what happened after that. I would have taken anybody over RB. I guess there's no changing it, so we've got to live with it... Up the Chels!
