Whiskey + coke OR some sort of beer / ale. Never mix them in one hold though or it upsets my 'trim' and i crash into doorframes under a non existant cross wind and go 'tech' for 24 hours

On shift, a healthy mix of Irn Bru, Nurofen and Proplus, and whatever food and drink can be relocated from the aircraft... we don't get paid enough to eat otherwise! Off shift... anything that is available!

during hard winter night shifts you have to stay awake, so my favorite one is vodka and red bull
