Default Fokker F-27

It was the 1980s and I was on the ramp working an inbound flight from MSP and was told the Flight Attendant had the comat bag with our paychecks. So I walked into the cabin and asked her "where's the comat?"

Her reply was " I don't know, but I have a brush you can use."

Oh that’s golden. Dash days landing in lga, a crew parked by the hangar that’s gone now. they had two organs in a cooler in the cockpit, CA decided safer to transport and Ambo would be meeting the plane. upon landing FA opened door and the EMT came up and asked “Are you the lifeguard flight?” FA got on the pa and asked in a frantic voice “Is there a lifeguard onboard? we need a lifeguard!” She earned that nickname 10 fold. As the prop turns....

It backfired on me once:

Ding..."What's that lake on the left?"

"Its Lake Titicaca"

Pause

"How did we get to Bolivia?"

What river are we crossing? One senior F/A said: “I always tell ‘em it’s the Snake River. Never been called on it yet.”

Jeez I hate that. If we are eastern half of the country it’s almost always the Mississippi. West? The Colorado.

FA: “Why do you guys test the coffee makers in the morning, and why do you do that from the flight deck?”
CA: “I’m sorry, what....?”
FA: “And we don’t even serve decaf out of the coffee pots.”
CA:
CA: “Early morning flights, I hear your computer thingee say Decaf system test OK!”


(TCAS system test OK, if you weren’t tracking yet)

“I should have just taken the pilot course instead of the FA course. It’s only 2 weeks longer in training and the pay is so much better!”

While overnight in DCA walking the National Mall the FA points to the Capitol building and says, “So what is that building there??” Further, she was disappointed there was no Kohl’s or Macy’s at this so called “mall”.
