I had just spent the previous 5 minutes informing the entire airline industry my position on life in the airline business. I touched the switch and the radios came back to life, ATC simply stated "I guess we all know how you feel, now". There were lots of f-bombs, and anatomical impossibilities described. Oh well better than keeping it bottled up, eh?

At least it wasn't a diatribe about the age, attractiveness and sexual preferences of your F/A's!! I agree with the need to just get it out and at least it wasn't wasted on just one person!

I still can't decide if you'd be hilarious, or a pain in the ass to fly with. Someone who has flown with CCB needs to chime in to settle this debate.

It can be either, mostly its the mind numbing boredom that is flying the line. Most of the time I spend my time in cruise quietly staring at the sun, trying to burn my retinas out so I can lose my medical and get a cool Labrador seeing eye dog. The pain-in-the-ass part is when I write up a plane on day 4, on the last round trip, at the outstation, and hilarious part is when I tell scheduling and MX control that they can come out and fly their junk themselves. When its broken its broken, where is, as is!
Don't even start me on 117 extensions!

Along the lines of CCM's great post, one of the better stories I came across happened to a buddy of mine. Came home one day freaking out that he had something.

I asked what was up, he said "I didn't have a rubber so I backdoored her."

"You realize that's the best hole to catch a disease out of right?"

"Yeah. But aside from getting AIDS, a STD is better than knocking a FA up."

I died laughing, but he made a good point.

CCB, your verbiage and your cadence remind me of my favorite characters in Generation Kill. Ray and Iceman Colbert. Keep rocking thy words my Whisky Tango brotha!
