That's cool, I guess, if you want/need hipster street cred.

"I fly for xyz airlines, you've probably never heard of them." Guy: So, have you been with Delta very long? Me: No, Sir, I don't fly for Delta. I fly for Mesaba. Guy: I've never heard of Mesaba. That sounds like an STD. Hence my name... Dick Burns. True story |

Pretty much any regional. It's always fun to sit near the crew hotel bar and watch drunken rj pilots hitting on anything with a twat by bragging about being a pilot.
It wasn't you, was it? Your [and of few others on this Thread] sentiments reeks of insecurity by mindlessly comparing yourselves with regional pilots while conveniently forgetting that most Major airline pilots in the US come from regional feed. You’re welcome. |
See there?
No originality in those guys. I would've replied with, "Well, I used to go by the stage name 'Dirk Diggler'. Ever see one of my movies?" |
