Mister Warning 27th Feb 2010 03:45

What do you think Ed, Allan and Stefan feel when they watch this?
Remorse or guilt?
Doubt it.
Standard defense mechanism - laugh while thinking it's either lies or about someone else!
:ugh:
For me though - brilliant but sad, a bit like nuclear weapons. Sad only because I remember what EK once was.
YOU MANAGEMENT BOYS REALLY "SCREWED THE POOCH"!

Unbeatable, extraordinary, hilarious.

Cough, monkey, cough!

I nearly gave it up ....

Fubaar 27th Feb 2010 05:48

The question is... will the author's name remain a mystery, as has the name of author of 'The Caravan' all these years?

(For his sake - and his family's, if he has one - I hope so.)

Very well done. The Stefan bits were cruelly on target.

My guess the author is an Airbus dude, or we've have had the aft torpedo tube and "torpedoes los!" squeezed somewhere into the dialogue.

wakbaralwaker 27th Feb 2010 06:26

Utterly utterly brilliant! Hearty congratulations to 'stripey pyjamas' for this magnificent piece of work - can the man or woman concerned be commissioned to produce an adaptation for Qatar Airways? A few more episodes to add, but basically the same story with the names changed to fit the 'management' characters over yonder.
Keep up the great work. :}

Wakbar

By the way TCAS, Ed etc you are but amateurs compared your counterparts in QR, watch for more posts giving you some more 'techniques' on shafting your pilots 'properly' :E

Original and so true, a must watch for anyone thinking of coming to this sack of sh1te airline!!!!!:ok:

Wiley 27th Feb 2010 19:36

Yes, ruserious, but since he's taken his bucket and spade and left the Sandpit, he's safe now. I hope the author of this masterpiece has covered his tracks well, 'cos I suspect certain people will.... aaaarrrr.... come alookin' fer 'im.

ZQN 28th Feb 2010 00:25

So, so true! I wonder what EGT will make of it?

twieke 28th Feb 2010 03:43

Brilliant!!!!

Marsellus 28th Feb 2010 10:09

Its ''funny'' to see how people react on this type of video.:D
There are not lot's of people who answer the truth about ''working out of dessert''. But its clear now. For guys without a job its ok.
But dont leave your job to work in the emirates!:ugh:

High 6 28th Feb 2010 12:09

Brilliant !!
 
Brilliant bit of video editing worthy of an Oscar... and not the Martinez variety !!The allocation of characters, subtitling etc.. is well done. Is the original version from the movie "The Right Stuff" .... the Chuck Yeager story?

Whilst I found the videos totally amusing and an excellent laugh, I must admit I am a bit saddened that a once great company that I was so proud to join has now become the laughing stock of the industry as far as pilots are concerned, thanks to the total incompetence of those who have been at the helm. This is nothing short of a crime against those of us who have put in so many years and so much effort to help EK get to where it is.... what to do! :ugh:

Panama Jack 28th Feb 2010 12:25

Tears of laughter!!! Brilliant! :D

Mr Mugabe 28th Feb 2010 14:37

You know when I first watched it I laughed until I cried then when I watched it the second time I, really, nearly cried!

PFM. Pure F Magic. Well done! Perfection! So damn true!

fjordviking 2nd Mar 2010 05:42

He has nothing to fear
 
The maker of these fantastic videos has nothing to fear. In fact I hope he gets exposed so he can pursue a real career in a field were he has a great talent.

Take the plunge and pursue your dream, don`t let it rot away in mediocre job in middle earth.
There is a Oscar or two waiting for you at the end of the rainbow.

You rule.

Check Six

Desert Dawg 3rd Mar 2010 04:46

Fookin' brilliant stuff..! :ok:

Can we have more..??

SubsonicMortal 3rd Mar 2010 06:46

I've watched the first video and it's brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the rest now. However, I'm not hearing any audio. Is that correct?

I'm also wondering why this thread has such a mediocre rating. Are management types signing in just to give it a poor rating? It should have a five stripe thumbs up.

Keep voting it a 5 striper thumbs up.

Thought you guys worked so hard you were knackered, and no time to do diddly squat ? :D

The first series was great, but with this one I would say he is definitely wasted in his current profession. ;)


Looking forward to the next instalments, great work :ok:

Oyindo 4th Mar 2010 14:56

Vnatastic, vill like to see za faces of za muppet management. How about EK's got talent? great stuff :ok:

Fubaar 5th Mar 2010 19:54

Spoke last night to the (ageing) author of 'The Caravan'. After watching the 'Darkest Hour' clips, he says he dips his lid to the new master and offers his sincere congratulations. Brilliant stuff.

Myself? Whilst in awe of all I've watched so far, (and still with tears in my eyes), as a seben seben seben driver, with all the German input, I'm just ein bisien disappointed we didn't see reference to Unterseeboots and read a "Torpodeos los!!" caption. (Any Airboos driver who doesn't understand that reference, ask a 777 driver.)

Hint, hint... maybe a new series using "Das Boot" footage to address the remote inflight crew rest issue?
