Congratulations sir.
Man, pity the guy/gal in the right seat of that show. Was probably day 9 of 4 for that poor soul.

Funny stuff...

It's been a while since I've heard it, but the gander on guard clearance read back followed by guard approval of the clearance...

The continental guys making animal noises on guard over the Atlantic that used to really torque the guard police...I'd be laughing so hard at the consternation I couldn't even speak.

The ramp PAs on guard that would get 30 planes commenting...

Was he there to support his child? Call me a tool, but, if he had to catch a flight and was pushing a timeline that seems pretty legit. OBTW, why were YOU at the gymnastics meet?

If he went straight there from the airport, not a tool at all. Good for him for being there for his son/daughter.
