to my captain.... who had such poor flying skills that he used left aileron during takeoff roll while we had a 15 knot crosswind from the right. it took me a few seconds to realize why the aircraft was leaning awkwardly to the left because what kind of pilot would do such a thing. To add to this craziness this same captain explained to me later in the trip that we only use aileron for directional control on takeoff and that we really don't touch the rudder pedals much at all. Yes this was mainline

I bet I know what Air Line he flies for. Please make sure Bob Goy McDoy is not transmitting on guard while making his 45 minute PA to the rest of the world.:mad:

United? They are the only ones I ever hear making PAs on guard. :)

Threatening a probationary pilot over the internet ranks high for me.

Found another pic of Mr. Shorts. Is this for real?

It seems to be according to some postings on another site. What 's really insane is people defending him!

Maybe he found a loophole in the uniform clause where it didn't specify pants length or something. Or maybe he's coming in on his days off with his buddy to "leak" these pictures out and troll us. Either way you gotta admit its a solid win. :cool:

I think it's pretty stupid, especially if he gets to do the carpet dance.
