Lol. That makes me sad. He i$ killing it too. $$$

It was the captain, and he got to give his favorite pair of kneepads quite the workout. He's known to be a "220V guy in a 120V world."

I am guessing mind you, but I am sure he is commonly known by some other terms also. One not being Mr. Self Control. Love to be in front of that guy in a long line of people or cars. He will need more than one extensive knee-pad therapy session. Check! :p

Yes, he is a captain and yes, crap rolled down hill on him. When the CEO calls the DO and tells him he wants "that guy" in his office, standing tall before the man, you know it's not gonna be a good day. Let's just say "someone" is on double secret probation.

Ohhhhhh poor little puppy pilot. Here's a tissue. No excuse for unprofessional behavior. The little brat needs a time out in the corner... And no breadsticks for a week. Too immature for cognac.

I'll add you to the "thinking you're perfect" list! :rolleyes: How ironic that a majority of the "tool material on the TOTD thread" comes from people pointing out other's mistakes? You must be Navy, amirite?

Well thanks for that Elliot.:rolleyes:

But now back to the topic. Enlighten us... How is arguing on the RT a mistake?

Does your company train and condone this type or behavior?

Did you mean "in a 110V world?"



A mistake is wearing a polka dot tie with a pin stripe shirt.

Such a shame we have to live in such a PC world, coddle people with kid gloves, and defend the actions of people that are professional and held to a higher standard. As well as be calm professionals under pressure. What? Were they on fire? Did the controller almost run them into another airplane?

Sadly, had that not made the media it would have NEVER even gotten that far. And "CA Happy" wouldn't have had to do a carpet dance and would continue full speed ahead at 220V unchecked. And the controller probably would have forgot about it by his next bathroom break.

Navy? What the ****? Probably an Eagle guy, dooshbag!!

If you can get by with it, more power to you! :D


Please try reformatting the above paragraph. What the "F" are you talking about? Where did I ever say we should treat this "Capt. Happy" with political correctness or kid gloves? The point of my original post was to illustrate there might have been more going on behind the scenes than just someone who has a full-time attitude problem. (80kts brought light to the situation.)


Really, I don't have issue with the Captain facing the consequences of his action(s). I just don't see the point of dwelling on it almost two years later?

TOTD material to re-post something that happened that long ago? Poss-probably! :)
