well, to tell the truth, I really have no idea how you choose to live your social life, and where else you might post about any bar conquests. From what I have read of your work here though, you do seem to fit a certain profile of pilot I've worked with before. Whatever floats your boat is OK with me. I've got cognac and breadsticks to consume.

"Hey, are you flightcrew?... Who do you work for?..."
TOTD:"I fly for "Delta". I fly jets" My lead FA tore into him, (bless her black heart, her hubby flies too), "Oh yeah, what type? CRJ, ERJ, Embraers, what?"
TOTD: "All of them." (Smirk.) "I even let a flight attendant do a landing once." FA: "Bull****! I won't even land the plane if I'm flying in a -172."
He was making a play for one of the other girls. They were ok, they knew how to handle this douche.
It was amazing, (appalling). The frozen permanent smirk. The perma-tan. The *********g ducktail hairdoo. (I hate those.) It was straight back to 1986 and "Top Gun". It was the Iceman. He walks the earth again. I wanted to wring his neck for the damage his stereotype does to our profession. The girls just laughed at him. I just wondered how in the hell he got hired; I'm sure his apps are out all over. The pool for the regionals must be pretty well drained dry.

It was so cliché it was unbelieveable.
Ok, rant over.
Sorry if you've seen it before but I think it's time to dig it back up!

Hey speaking of which, PM me! I need some advice on how to get them to like me-at work only. So far I'm 0/(approximately) 54ish...

Hope you're doing well!

How's about the pilots hitting on bartenders wearing their fbo shirt, blue jeans from Kmart and shiny white New Balances? Why are they always New Balances?

Tool of the day goes to the teenage kid commenting on Sully's Facebook post about attempts to reduce atp mins, claiming that military pilots should be exempt from current mins because they are inherently of higher quality and also have better training than civilian pilots.

Isn't there already a reduced ATP min for military pilots? I wasn't in the military, but I can certainly concede that the flight training is far more standardized and regimented than an average civilian Part 61 training program. For that reason, I think (and the FAA agrees) that reduced ATP mins for military pilots is justified.

They are not of higher quality, but do have better training.

Agreed. His other post saying 'military pilots are closer to sky gods than your run of the mill commercial pilot' was pretty toolish also, but maybe I'm the biggest tool for not providing the big picture!
