Remember to log your lightning strikes, take pictures of the hail damage,and don't forget to include those in your application. Reciepts for your hospital bills are also recommended for proof of experience. At Pinnacle we are constantly dodging tornadoes on final, at night, on leg 9, while little lightning bolts streak across the glass so bad that we can't see our hand in front of our face. I was told we have a flow through with the Hurricane Hunters because we're such ballers. Be serious SLIP, if thats how you feel and thats what you fly through then I think I'd rather have my family on a plane with the 250 hour wonder who wouldn't think twice about even launching into that because he's "too scared." I don't want my mom on a plane with you, unless your Chuck Yeager, Chuck Norris, or the Almighty himself, you're not making it to the airport in the conditions you described. Your post was entertaining though.

Sounds impressive.... just how did you fly with one hand out the window? :D

Chuck Norris picks his teeth with lightning bolts and farts St Elmo's fire!

PinkSlip taught me... although it does get tricky in hurricanes.

excellent....

My company actually got sued by him a couple years back. Settled it all with a hand shake (with his lawyer) and a slap on the wrist. It was a close call...

A slap on the wrist from Chuck Norris hurts more than a .44 in the temple from anyone else...

Apparently Pinnacle's HR department isn't extremely bright either. They sent me an email today to update my Airline Apps with them after telling both Pinnacle and Mesaba that I was all set, and have taken employment elsewhere. Wake TF up people!

3 on a good day if you count Apopka! I swear if I saw that lake one more time I was going to take that .44 you mentioned to my temple.
