Dude, where u got that from???? Laptops:confused:
I work at ExpressJet, a decent company, and I never heard of something like that...

I have my own laptop. I keep all the company manuals on it and the pilot contract. Plus it gives me something to do crossing the Atlantic (DVD's). :D

You're not getting the coffee and blowjob because you're forgetting to leave the PA on...

Um, no.

Back when I was a junior FO jumpseating home coast-to-coast on legacy us airways, the captain asked me if I was going home...I said yes. He asked if I had a wife or girlfriend...again I said yes. Then he asked how long it had been since I had been home...a couple weeks I told him.

So he says we'd better get you in the right frame of mind...and proceeded to pull out a laptop and fire up his collection of classic 70's porno...for 5 hours! :eek:

Note: He did verify that all three people in the cockpit were ex-navy before he did this.

Seriously, can you access the internet, and to some web surfing inflight. Or even DVD's:D

Ha, Great Rickair... Sadly, probably no one could dare pull that one off today... or could they?! :D

Since we have strayed into the porno realm....
Out here (Iraq) 1 out of 10 Marines has either:

a: external hard drive of at least 100gb
b: laptop with roughly 60gb

and in most cases both are completely running at 90-95% FULL of porn...and that is just some Marines....others have over 200+GB full

I am no saint by any means but I was not even aware that much porn even existed...when you have 200gb it starts getting pretty obscure..ie..pets, tools, farm animals...ok I will stop because this isnt really appropriate for this forum but you get the idea
