At my 135 company, we pilots get to load the plane with all the catering/drinks for each leg of our flight while at the same time, we're trying to do our preflight and flight planning. We have to show up an hour early just to have time to ice down drinks and make the coffee before we can even start our flight prep. When each leg is over, we get to clean the cabin of all the debris and get ready for the next leg. Ever see what pax can do with muffins and crackers on a long flight. Yet another reason I want out of charter. :( |

Plus, we dont have "throttles". Throttles are for Cessnas. |

The stupid things the FA says
It’s all good in retrospect. The other day the FA informed me that since initial training for Flight Attendant was four weeks and First Officer was six weeks, well she’s planning on going back to school for two more weeks and becoming a FO! Wrap your head around that! :D

Really? I guess that means I fly a Cessna MD-11 with auto throttles. |
Autothrust-levers...
Doesn't quite have the same ring to it, don't you think?! My vote is on throttles LoL |

Some days I want to just do her job! |

Well then you dont want to be an airline pilot. We dont get to do any of that stuff you are talking about.
