Looking further ahead with the demise of 10 Sqn will this breed of animal also disappear from the VC10 for good? :confused:

If they do disappear from the VC10 we will glady absorb them
onto the undermanned SH fleet, they would have to start working for a living though!! ;)

Overpaid one winged growbags. Fantastic. Funniest thing I've heard in months. Brilliant, stop it, you're making me cry.

They'll have to start working for a living? Pure genius.

Breed of animal - Wish I'd thought of that.

Here's a new word for you - OVERSTRETCH

And here's a concept too - PASSENGER SAFETY

Edited because I couldn't spell right - I was laughing too much.

Overstretch....... the state of the growbags due to high consumption of crew meals

pax safety....... on civil aircraft, this is down to the cabin staff..to put it bluntly stewards.


LM's days are numbered on the shiny fleet.

Have just reported your post to a moderator. If you are capable, have a go at trying to work out why.

" pax safety....... on civil aircraft, this is down to the cabin staff..to put it bluntly stewards "

Right. But on the other hand has any of us been dependant on civvy stewards of either sex getting us out of a sticky situation ? (not in the biblical sense of course ).

Probably not.

However........" They'll have to start working for a living? Pure genius." does have a certain sadistic appeal !!

When 101 was 101 they were never employed on the fleet.

The safety of the travelling groundcrew was the responsibility of each individual supervised by the GE have things really changed :E

On a tanker surely they is not much loading to do apart from the crew bags :O and a FAP :ugh:

So if it is down to coffee serving a steward with lumps in a grow bag will do :ok:

Even civil airliners have a chief cart tart. Why should the VC10 provide a lower level of cabin safety? Or is your jealousy showing?

Even civil airliners have a chief cart tartYes but that is for a wide bodied aircraft. If you are talking about a dozen people then no requirement

An inflammitory little start to the thread:yuk:
Is there a point to this?
Or is it a sh#t-chucking exercise merely to satisfy individual positions? :E
Reread: Door Slider, Juan Tugoh = :ok:

If you can think of any particularly convincing reason why we should keep open yet another thread dedicated to just throwing childish brickbats at a particular branch and wasting bandwidth --- then please feel free to let me know!!! In the meantime, this is closed.

Banter's good, abuse is bad.

Once upon a time the RAF defended itself from all outsiders and refrained from public abuse of others within the world of "light blue", preferring instead to "give the banter" in the bar in private. How times have changed.
