Tool of the day
#6961
Along this line, I'd like to nominate the TOTD as the ex-AF SWA cptn who deemed it necessary to taxi around like a [deleted] banshee, cut the taxi lines, be rough on the brakes and tiller, throw the FAs and PAX around like they're boxes on a Fedex or UPS jet, and then have the nerve to b!tch about a Delta Mad Dog that was taxiing "slow".
Later that day while we were taxiing out to the penalty box TO SIT FOR A WHEELS UP TIME, we got behind a UAL-Express ERJ that was once again taxiing like normal people do. His comment was, "He must be practicing for mainline". He didn't seem to appreciate my response of, "He's taxiing like every other carrier taxies. Have you not noticed that we're the ones that have a seemingly monthly taxiway/runway excursion or collision with another aircraft or surface equipment?"
TOOL! Slow the [sunflower seed] down! It's not missles strapped to the wings anymore!'

Sorry...from the link.
Cape Air female CA with rosacea.
"I had the pleasure of sitting in the jumpseat with PSA for the first time. It was so great that I'm going to tell everyone about it. While waiting for the plane, I introduced myself the crew. The captain, looked at me in total disgust and didn't even say hi back. They boarded, I ended up with the jump so again i introduced myself, ask politely if it is okay and hand the captain all of the paperwork. He goes on to breif me on their cockpit, when he gets to the escape hatch he points at it and says "grab the handle, the red one, like your face..." No more words were shared until we are about to descend and the FO turns around to ask what I fly. "A 402." To which he responds, "I don't know what that is, I'm not general aviation, I;m Navy. Is that like a King Air?" The best part: I don't think that they even get it. I'll be riding any other airline out of here. I'd rather rent a car and drive three hours than ever deal with that sh$t again.""

I call bvll****. You're telling me the CA gave her permission to close without a bag sheet (because you claim they were still putting bags on the cart.) and that she would close without her final paperwork, which comes from the gate agent, who obviously couldn't because people were still boarding and that a ramp agent also did this because Mesa/AA policy requires a ramp agent be present to close the boarding door? Nice try on fake Mesa bashing though....
