Agreed. Thanks, Bubba.

Yeah, nothing like groupthink to improve your day and expand your mind.

So bad.
Please. Make this person stop.
Did he really record himself walking to the lav at 1:24??

What part of his idiotic, narcissistic, ungrounded in reality, tool bag of a brain thought it would be a good idea to post this to YouTube, and that it was good????

I'm sorry, dude, but that was NOT good. And you make the rest of us professionals look decidedly unprofessional.

I'd love to hear how management has reacted to this.

Cameras don't lie - "the Captain did it!"

Felony theft due to the amount. Not sure what he was charged with. Lawyered up and plea(?) bargained to a lesser charge.

In fact, until sometime in the 1960s, commercial pilots carrying US Mail aboard (a substantial percentage of all commercial aircraft), were actually required to carry a firearm with them. Again, zero known record of incidents. Gee, I wonder how it was possible that we didn't have any "cowboy shootouts" in the sky. And this was all before the modern FFDO program.

Curious, been flying commercially since 1978 and have never seen anyone carrying on board until the FFDO program, what group were you talking about? Thanks
