Back in the day of over-wing checks 5 minutes prior to takeoff, the standard UAL answer to the check ride question of "Which row is designated in your aircraft for the over-wing check?" was "the row with the prettiest girl," or other description I am bound by the TOS to not use. :rolleyes:

Everyone laughed, and it gave you a minute or so more to figure out if it was really row 17, or 18....always got confused, because your first plane it was 17, then you changed fleets...

Of course. But during the oral, in a room at TK, they wanted you to know which row.

The joke was common on my first three fleets. The triangle was an acceptable answer, as well. ;)

No oral questions at UAL other than ops limits...
