I feel the humble guys pain .I tried on some of the new airbus fleet shoes today. Not only was the heel way too high, and front so tiny that they pinched my toes. But, worse of all, they clash with my eyes . I don't care if they are louis Vuitton Patel ( they say he is a new up and coming designer from Karama) they just make me feel frumpy . I just need a tub of ice cream now and little cry.

Humble guy comment to me was rather funny . But then it occurred to me that he may be serious . Or have I been here to long to not have a sense of humor anymore ?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t a phone’s spell checker correct things on what it learns as commonly used words and phrases. Maybe ‘effeminacy’ has been typed into the search window on google too many times on the device used to write the FCI. Obviously using a good VPN though.

Just a thought...

I love it, in an email designed to nitpick the pilots about small inconsequential items, they can't even be bothered to spellcheck or even proof-read their own stuff before hitting send. I can picture him there furiously typing away "I'm gonna teach those lazy pilots a thing or two" and smashing down on the send button with a huff of satisfaction...

Sadly I’ll never know who you really are but if I could and you were ever requesting a jumpseat on my flight, I’ll gladly deny your request. Boys like you don’t belong in a cockpit. I understand there might be an intent of dark humor but rather leave it to the bar over a beer than bashing your colleagues like this on a public forum.
Lol , hit a guilty nerve? Try boxers instead your panties Francis.

First of all, Mr.Hypocrit.Guy what a great way to inspire the unity you profess to desire, selectively denying benefits to your colleagues. Did you also manage to dust off your Scab Blacklist on the day the jumpseats were announced?

Meanwhile, back on topic it's not about A vs. B, its just that the chief pilot of one fleet sent the letter to only a specific group of pilots, asking them to be more lady-like, so try not to be too sensitive there big fella!

yes but make sure you have a sleazy CSV ready to ask you to remove your jacket to check the bra is regulation beige and then ask you to turn so they can check the skirt is not too tight for the full authentic EK Image & Uniform experience! 😂

I would just like to nominate this thread officially for

Best. Thread. Ever.

Especially since I can't tell if Humble Guy is serious or farce.

It would seem that EK is becoming more and more progressive, but maybe forcing pilots sexual preferences is taking it a bit too far .
Long nails now allowed too? Hot pink would look good when flying your 'stick' with thumb and first two fingers only!!
