Phantom Driver

Perhaps I should also mention that when Denis Healey went cap in hand to the IMF to bail out the UK the £Stg fell so I got a 25% tax free pay rise:E

PS As a sign of how things have changed over the years KAC always stayed in the Taj Mahal in Bombay ( as was ) Even GF stayed there in those days

Is each new bag going to come stuffed with 1000 aed notes? Coz I would like my bleeding pay rise please!

So that would be "No" then!

I count 27 crosses on the outside plus several hundred on the inside :}

I'm not sure l need a business-mans carry-on hand luggage as a nav-bag.

Tis 2.5 time larger than the bag l use and that fits my hat and 'jamies!

I guess l will be able to put my laundry in their from whenever this comes into affect. Yay. Great for the first 20 minutes of (prior to) my duty period.

Dear Alan,

Tried your nice new bag the other day. Didn't like it. Won't be using it again.

Wot he said....

Now that the use of the bag is mandatory from August 1st do we have to start writing reports on each other for not using it or can we assume we'll have to sign another piece of paper we've checked the other guy is using the correct bag? Or will we have to go to the CC briefing to get our grooming checked? :ugh:

The most IMPRACTICAL flight bag ever seen... In fact, it's not even a 'flight bag'... How the hell can you access the damn thing when it's stuffed between the seat and the sidewall!

Yet another well thought out waste of money:rolleyes::ugh:

Well we could get rid of it in a hurry if EVERYONE put in an ASR saying it blocks access to the emergency torch…..:ok::E, although they'd probably just instruct everyone to buy themselves a maglite to keep IN the bag!

Good gosh. Complaining and moaning about this non event denigrates legitimate complaints we have over other issues. Grow up people. This has no real effect on anything important in our professional lives. Complaining about this makes us look like a bunch of 13 year old girls worrying about Justin Beiber.:ugh:

"that's funny right there" - Mater @TangoUniform

Don't really give a flying phasmid about any of this but when you are dragging the thing around an airport, try to fit it in one of those frames that judges cabin bag size. My colleague tried it in two different locations on our last layover and it didn't fit. Might be an issue for those of you who like the freighter and it's associated positioning duties.

The new bag's great. Fits 5 bottles of grog, easily, and on layovers such as Lagos, where one doesn't venture too far, all that is required for the layover.

I wonder did they buy them from here?
Certainly not advertised as a pilot bag.

I like it, enough room for my shreddies, clean shirt(s) jeans, trainers, and a few other odds and sods for the 24hr summer EU/Africa/Asia layover. No waiting for a suitcase at the rotunda anymore for me :E

Yes but FED what do you do about your LAGs in your carry on bag - you know, toothpaste, bryllcreem, KY, etc...

Don't the nazis take it all away from you at the airport when you go anywhere near the USA?

Swansafa must translate into bigot in some language.

As long as your in uniform you can carry all your liquids and jells with you. Out of uniform different story. I can't believe that a uniform shirt is a secure item. With it on anything through, with it off your just like the rest of the cattle.

That was a guy I flew with back in the 90's who was a bigot. Name removed to protect the innocent.....I didn't search the EK seniority list before I posted.

Rumour has it that the locals, amongst others, are refusing to use Stealey's Wheels because they are adorned with crosses.

Fix this one Al.
