You know you're an Ascoteer when....
You realise that anyone and everyone can do your job much better than you, knows your GASOs and the intricacies of your ac performance to an above average standard and that having any type of AT ac or crew is an utter waste of time and money because you might as well get some CH47 crewman to fly the things on their day off. 'Cos that's what BA do, right?
On the other hand, I realised I was an absolute cock when...
I started preaching to some harrier mates about medium level CAS and told some CH47 geezer how FDAD was much easier than they kept making out.
Anyway, back to the fun...
1. You pitch up at a civil airport and expect at least one of your crew to cause a scene at security because he's carrying a leatherman.
2. You know that any estimate of a GEs age should be reduced by at least 15 years to get anywhere near.
3. Anyone who tells you Gander is a good night stop is certainly a GE.
4. You've considered stealing your aircraft and flying to Brazil when it was full of drugs/money or maybe both!
5. Nothing the Royal Gurkha Rifles do in the back of the ac surprises you...
