TSA wins again. It's like being in a Monty Python skit. I have to wonder if they put any thought into their directives or they just feel compelled to publish a few every week.

The F/O walking through terminal E in CLT with an Independent Trucks "undershirt". What I saw was a giant black and red Iron Cross logo through his uniform shirt If you don't know what that logo looks like.

Also, the requisite backpack on one shoulder. All he needed was white framed sunglasses and I would have won airport Bingo!

I didn't originally post it, but it was too good to keep hidden away in the G4 thread.

ATC recording of the VP of Ops and the Director of Safety disregarding NOTAMS and taking off and flying into a closed airport, then demanding they be allowed to land.

All of this on the day they fired a Captain who acted in the interest of safety and evacuated after reports of smoke in the cabin and smoke coming from the plane (from ARFF).

I am not sure if I am the TOTD for gate checking my roller board to save overhead room for paying passengers or if the ramp agent is the TOTD for removing the gate check tag from my roller board and replacing it with a regular bag tag and sending my luggage to baggage claim because he/she was too lazy to carry it up the jet way stairs. Either way, 1 of us gets the award for today.

Lemme guess...American? They haven't embraced the whole gate check concept that we had at LUS (or much of anything else we had at LUS).

No, that would still very much be the "old" American.

There's a tiny gap offshore to the left, and how high were the tops?

In my Cirrus I have a parachute so I'd feel comfortable trying it. (/sarcasm)
