[Instant Hooligan]

Love it....!!! Never a truer word.

[tbaylx]

Damn that was funny.....

[Nil defects]

Exemplary....................5

:D

[Wiley]

'The Caravan' has at last been upstaged.

Brilliant.

[woodja51]

I loved Eds hat... and Stefans ideas .... jimps .. ya jimps... rouse rouse into ze gas chamber!!

Speilberg has a competitor... sad part is ..... not far from the truth...

WJA

[Mister Warning]

What do you think Ed, Allan and Stefan feel when they watch this?
Remorse or guilt?
Doubt it.
Standard defense mechanism - laugh while thinking it's either lies or about someone else!
:ugh:
For me though - brilliant but sad, a bit like nuclear weapons. Sad only because I remember what EK once was.
YOU MANAGEMENT BOYS REALLY "SCREWED THE POOCH"!

[pool]

Unbeatable, extraordinary, hilarious.

Cough, monkey, cough!

I nearly gave it up ....

[Fubaar]

The question is... will the author's name remain a mystery, as has the name of author of 'The Caravan' all these years?

(For his sake - and his family's, if he has one - I hope so.)

Very well done. The Stefan bits were cruelly on target.

My guess the author is an Airbus dude, or we've have had the aft torpedo tube and "torpedoes los!" squeezed somewhere into the dialogue.

[wakbaralwaker]

Utterly utterly brilliant! Hearty congratulations to 'stripey pyjamas' for this magnificent piece of work - can the man or woman concerned be commissioned to produce an adaptation for Qatar Airways? A few more episodes to add, but basically the same story with the names changed to fit the 'management' characters over yonder.
Keep up the great work. :}

Wakbar

By the way TCAS, Ed etc you are but amateurs compared your counterparts in QR, watch for more posts giving you some more 'techniques' on shafting your pilots 'properly' :E

[ruserious]

anybody that has been here more than 5 minutes, knows who wrote the Caravan :ok:

[spierpoint jones]

Pure genius....!

jones:ok:

[puff m'call]

Original and so true, a must watch for anyone thinking of coming to this sack of sh1te airline!!!!!:ok:

[Wiley]

anybody that has been here more than 5 minutes, knows who wrote the CaravanYes, ruserious, but since he's taken his bucket and spade and left the Sandpit, he's safe now. I hope the author of this masterpiece has covered his tracks well, 'cos I suspect certain people will.... aaaarrrr.... come alookin' fer 'im.

[ZQN]

So, so true! I wonder what EGT will make of it?

[twieke]

Brilliant!!!!

[Marsellus]

Its ''funny'' to see how people react on this type of video.:D
There are not lot's of people who answer the truth about ''working out of dessert''. But its clear now. For guys without a job its ok.
But dont leave your job to work in the emirates!:ugh:

[High 6]

Brilliant bit of video editing worthy of an Oscar... and not the Martinez variety !!The allocation of characters, subtitling etc.. is well done. Is the original version from the movie "The Right Stuff" .... the Chuck Yeager story?

Whilst I found the videos totally amusing and an excellent laugh, I must admit I am a bit saddened that a once great company that I was so proud to join has now become the laughing stock of the industry as far as pilots are concerned, thanks to the total incompetence of those who have been at the helm. This is nothing short of a crime against those of us who have put in so many years and so much effort to help EK get to where it is.... what to do! :ugh:

[Panama Jack]

Tears of laughter!!! Brilliant! :D

[Mr Mugabe]

You know when I first watched it I laughed until I cried then when I watched it the second time I, really, nearly cried!

Mr M:{

[5star]

B R I L L I A N T and ooh soo funny, but sadly ooh soo true.
thanks for sharing.

[Jetjock330]

PFM. Pure F Magic. Well done! Perfection! So damn true!

[fjordviking]

The maker of these fantastic videos has nothing to fear. In fact I hope he gets exposed so he can pursue a real career in a field were he has a great talent.

Take the plunge and pursue your dream, don`t let it rot away in mediocre job in middle earth.
There is a Oscar or two waiting for you at the end of the rainbow.

You rule.

[EGGW]

Back online for your enjoyment! :ok:

[global707]

Top Drawer stuff! Excellent:ok:

[Check 'Six']

Absolutely fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of these videos. The Right Stuff!!!

We want more episodes please. Well done.

Check Six

[Desert Dawg]

Fookin' brilliant stuff..! :ok:

Can we have more..??

[SubsonicMortal]

I've watched the first video and it's brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the rest now. However, I'm not hearing any audio. Is that correct?

I'm also wondering why this thread has such a mediocre rating. Are management types signing in just to give it a poor rating? It should have a five stripe thumbs up.

Keep voting it a 5 striper thumbs up.

[Moosejaw54]

[captplaystation]

Thought you guys worked so hard you were knackered, and no time to do diddly squat ? :D

The first series was great, but with this one I would say he is definitely wasted in his current profession. ;)


Looking forward to the next instalments, great work :ok:

[guntslapper]

YouTube - Our Darkest Hour episode 5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIy77Y_vHD8&feature=channel)

[Oyindo]

Vnatastic, vill like to see za faces of za muppet management. How about EK's got talent? great stuff :ok:

[Fubaar]

Spoke last night to the (ageing) author of 'The Caravan'. After watching the 'Darkest Hour' clips, he says he dips his lid to the new master and offers his sincere congratulations. Brilliant stuff.

Myself? Whilst in awe of all I've watched so far, (and still with tears in my eyes), as a seben seben seben driver, with all the German input, I'm just ein bisien disappointed we didn't see reference to Unterseeboots and read a "Torpodeos los!!" caption. (Any Airboos driver who doesn't understand that reference, ask a 777 driver.)

Hint, hint... maybe a new series using "Das Boot" footage to address the remote inflight crew rest issue?

[guntslapper]

There are some funny buggers out there....

From another thread..

[bluewater]

Jailbird, my friend.
I tip my hat to you, as well. You have started a line cult revolution that just may be unstoppable...I sense it’s getting air under its wings. Your humor is something I could get drunk on. You’re in the wrong game for yourself but the right one for us.
Keep em coming?
Too freedom.
BW
:ok:

[crazypilot]

Everyone's talking this now...I overheard it amongst a bunch of non-pilots (possibly redhats) at Barasti a few days back.

[Yossarian]

I laughed till I cried, and then I just cried!

[SiClick]

Very very good! And not without a hint of truth. Stripy PJ keep your head down.

[BurDubaiBob]

guntslapper - with it being of a similar genre, one imagines the film 'Lawrence of Arabia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OekreVGuz-M&feature=related)' also contains a lot of excellent material... hint hint!! ;)

[IXNAT]

:D:ok::D:ok:

Don't stop, keep 'em coming. How in the world do you do this? A talent beyond my imagination. Bravo, sir. 12 Oclock High-shown throughout the world in leadership techniques and seminars for discussion. But the list for movies is endless....Das Boot, Lawrence of Arabia, Airport, High and the Mighty. You need a production company.:ok::D

[5star]

Strippy (turquoise?) Pyama's: Whoever you are, you deserve a couple of stars on your uniform. Great stuff. Makes me think of the Monty Python stuff. :ok:

Thanks for making my day again and drifting away, if only for a few minutes, from the miserable life here in EK...

[Jumeirah James]

Gents, I can't see all of the first video; it starts at 1:46? Help :(

[jinglied]

These video's are outstanding...however..

The creator was not totally correct about our illustrious "Werner" not being invited to any BBQ's. His history with this airline includes attending some KOREAN BBQ's where the meat was served up very tender. Just ask our Korean Cabin Crew how a certain CCM (his wife) treats ALL the Korean girls under her watch (and why!).... He got caught wielding his BBQ tools in the wrong BBQ!! :}

[undersiege]

Thats not new......... GF has been hiring monkeys as pilots for years.:}

[guntslapper]

Don't change that channel....more coming soon!

[Nobend]

Hey guys your videos have made it to the small screen in Asia. Star Movies on Astro broadcast Battle of Britain yesterday and the missus couldn't understand why I was laughing so much.

Brilliant work

[guntslapper]

Stripy sent me a message last night. He has a bit of time off coming up and was after a new scandal to feature in his next movie.

Over to you gents....

[guntslapper]

By the way, he mentioned there may be some truth in this.....

YouTube - Billy Connolly talks about suicide bombers = funny (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdNqUW5wwTE&feature=related)

[QCM]

Gunts you were funny till this one...

[ShockWave]

After being out of the sand pit for some time, I still find it staggering that an airline that has accomplished so much, can't manage to weed out the idiots from within their management. Are they keeping them around so they can be thrown in jail as scapegoats later?

Now I can't decide what would be worse, not seeing the next youtube installment about them, or them remaining in EK?:ugh:

[I.R.PIRATE]

I dont work for EK, but I need to say : Our Darkest Hour, is the funniest aviation related shyte I have ever seen.

Wife thinks I've gone mad giggling at my desk like a school girl. Well done mate - your sense of humour in dark times is sheer upliftment! :D:D

[ThrustIDLE]

hahahahahahaha been laughing the last 20 minutes!!!!

it is amazing how much free time people has, to do this kind of stuff! :-D

[X-BleedOpen]

Very, very funny indeed!

Keep posting some of those videos! :-) Been laughing for half an hour... :-)

[Alloyboobtube]

Very funny. Classic . Unfortunately too close to the truth.....

[Pizzaguy]

CAn you lead me to this post that you'r referring to? (The Caravan)
Thanks :)

[Cleday88]

THAT WAS AMAZING! Hilarious! Give the creator a Banana :D

[SuckItUp]

Does anyone have a link to the "A day in the life...." videos?


They seem to have vanished into the Aether and I'd like to add them to my "collection for reflection" for later on in life.

[donpizmeov]

Time to revisit this I think :)
