Shouldn't this be posted in the 'major tool of the day' thread??

Not sure if the title refers to the workout, or the filming of the workout and posting it on social media for the Feds to see.

YX tail...Wouldn't be too hard to figure out who it is. Really should be taken down.

Looks like he took your advice!

Shows a lack of maturity. You would think the captain would take this chance to mentor and explain why putting something like that for the whole world to see might be a poor decision, but I guess he lacked some maturity too.

ERPlaneguy87 11-23-2019 05:22 AM

Video is now unavailable. What was going on in it?

PhantomHawk 11-23-2019 08:36 AM

D-Baggery.

Basically some pilot at altitude doing bicep curls with a resistance band wrapped around his cockpit seat

Green Needles 11-23-2019 12:12 PM

He'll be at Delta soon.

Looks like the captain was filming it!

Looked like the channel owner swiped the video from somewhere and published it to gain followers.
Also a tool.

Burt123 11-23-2019 04:14 PM

It was originally an Envoy pilot. But yes, he’ll be the next hired at Delta, they have a thing for those type of ‘pilots’

80ktsClamp 11-23-2019 08:19 PM

It was a dingleberry doing tension arm curls in flight... with clearly identifiable markings.

I can only assume he went back to meowing on guard and possibly even a fake DL PA afterward... :rolleyes:

KCaviator 11-26-2019 05:20 AM

Yeah, these are the same guys that:

1) Live on Rpapilot and complain daily on our Facebook page,
2) Have an Instagram account dedicated to flying, and
3) Wonder why they can’t get hired by a major.

BTW. There are FOUR bars on the guys shoulders. Is he a check airman?

There are three bars, he is an FO......

FAs are ruining KCM, and regional FOs will get surveillance cameras installed in the cockpit...

klondike 11-29-2019 05:57 AM

I’m so sorry.
You are right.
Jeez. How embarrassing.
How did I pass my last eye exam?

I will stand by my “Holy Crap” though

Honestly I blame the captain more than the F/O. The captain should have the experience and leadership to tell him to knock it off, not take his phone and film it.

With lightning fast upgrade times, experience and leadership aren’t as plentiful.

I’m afraid it will only get worse as senior pilots jump ship to the majors.

He was doing bicep curls in cruise with a resistance band? So????
Why is this even post worthy? What is wrong with you all? I think I know who the real tools are...

Because it got on social media. The traveling public will have a conniption.

I never saw the video, just what people were describing on here. Well, watching Netflix in cruise, that is more note worthy than bicep curls. I can see where that would be an issue with a few people.

That’s taken on the ground, gear is down. And from that color out the window it looks like a sim.

Well, bottom line is that I should of never posted without having all the facts. My bad, sorry.

Because the bands were at his feet and could’ve hit a switch or something if he lost his grip, and more importantly his captain (or a F/A possibly) was stupid enough to film it.
