Like someone said, they're nervous. They probably don't like flying to begin with and are anxious. And some of our brother's haven't exactly been behaving in a manner that fills them with a warm and fuzzy feeling when surrendering their lives and all control to us. I never take it personally and spin it back as a joke with a big smile and then engage them in small talk and personal attention. It works great to put them at ease.

 

Thanks! It did help. TMZ worthy!

I called the phone number you provided. They put me through to records, who said the Report No. or Local Report No. didn't match their records....

But the date, time, local, and reporting officer was all they needed to find the record. I was able to describe the event as you reported and they said they had the report. They couldn't, or wouldn't, say if it was a pilot but the event occurred.

They can't provide the person charged, crime, or legal/criminal follow up, etc, etc, without a FIOA request.

Here's that info -

Open records request must be done in writing.

Really? Give it a rest. Who cares who it was? Its just a story on a public forum.

 

why does this guy care so much? TOTD right there

 

Pretty silly stealing from an airport vendor if you are a pilot. You don't crap where you eat. When I get a little tight on cash, I just knock off a liquor store on the way home...

 

We know that doesn't work very well, because none of you guys will wear a hat, giving the security cameras full face views.Not to mention the wings pinned to your non identifiable sweatshirt.

Holy Contradiction, Batman!!

 

Flight from a carribean destination to NYC last week and this giant muscle head Italian wanna be long islander gets off the plane with his infant and wife. I'm waiting for the other guy about to head to customs, and said meat head chooses to engage in conversation. "Bro, that was one nasty flight, never been on such a bumpy flight bro". Now mind you, during this 4 hour flight we had maybe 15 minutes of light turbulence over the gulf... Certainly nothing Terrible and borderline leave the belt sign off. I just gave a reasoned "well we did our best but for the most part we got lucky and found some smooth air.... Interrupted. "No bro, listen, I fly all the time, that was the bumpiest flight ever, that was terrible, you guys did a terrible job". At this point I'm getting a bit annoyed and starting to laugh a bit at the seeing this jersey shore esk dude with his cage rattled.

Me: "sir, is this your wife"
Meathead: "yeah bro"
Me: "cool, miss how bad were the bumps in the cabin"
Her: " umm, just fine. I don't know why he's freaking out."
Me: "sir, if you continue to complain about the ride infront of your wife and your fellow Long Island passengers, I'll be forced to confiscate your man card"
Wife: laughter
Meathead: silence

 

You really are Chuck Norris, bro, what a stud!

 

In retrospect, maybe a bit toolish. I've just gotten a little tired of the commentary after the Christmas "I fly once a year" season.
