Your Boss say's 'Weather,why check the weather. Your going anyway so why frighten yourself'.

Your Checklist includes tape for the labeling machine incase the 'inop' stickers fall off in flight.

Nobody gives you any respect, but they do tend to compliment you on your pleasant personality.
( of course you're nice, if you weren't sweet as sugar you'd never get any kind of service out of anyone in this industry whatsoever! ) We're all just poor freight trash don't ya know.

If you meet the "profile" and get searched/fondled at the gate while commercialling to work - I'm 6 for 7 so far! I buy one way tickets on the same day that I travel - I MUST be a terrorist!

When taxing in and out in your 747, you run you block time up by offering to give way to everybody.

When you are sitting at the hotel bar at 5:00 Lt, wearing your high visibility jacket, and having your BBB (the very famous Before Breakfast Beer).

Cheers,

Never regret the things you have done
Only regret the things you haven't :eek:

...your'e watching 'Top Gun', and when Maverick and Goose are being chewed out and threatened with "flying cargo planes full of rubber dog **** out of Hong Kong", you think "Hey, great job!" <img src="cool.gif" border="0">

...you get picked up as a vagrant on the ramp..
...you wish you'd kept the piece of cold pizza..
...your children ask their mum who this strange man who sometimes visits is..
...you find yourself watching people going to work through the bar window...
...you wonder what a hostie would be like......then remember you married one in a previous life..
...you can't work out what they are watching on TV when jumpseating in an EFIS flightdeck..

No Tower I don't regretfully. I would love to write him myself.

. . . You have to wake up the customs & immigration people at the departure/destination airport.

You are still covered in Portland cement dust from the Nigeria thing in 1978

But it's usually deferrable....

I tried contacting “Before Landing Check List” directly, but have not received a response. The posted story “The Exploding Toilet and Other Embarrassments” is one of the funniest and well written aviation stories I have ever read. I would like to put it in our union’s newspaper but at the end of the post there is a reference to a copyright by the author Patrick Smith. Does anyone know how to contact Patrick Smith or where this story was originally published?

I have contacted the author - please disregard previous post.....

the 727 has the same problems as the DC10!!. .don't lookup during the walkaround, oil might drip in your eyes :)

But i will take it anytime over one of these fly by wire deathtraps.
