Pilots In Uniforms As Passengers

[Dr Illitout]

I was standing in a HUGE "Stand by" queue once, when I saw man turn up in "Civies". On seeing the queue, he turned around and went into the toilets only to return five miniutes later in the full "Captain speaking" uniform!!!. He then went to the check in desk and tried the old "Who's flying today" and "I'm aircrew so I can have the jump seat" lines. It didn't work though and I had to smile when my name was called out and his wasn't.
