Take-off better than me.

Fly better than me.

Land better than me.

Get paid more than me

Make ME take the ugly one.

Don't take that to heart. Sometimes the ugly ones are the best ones.

You have got to be joking!

The ugly ones are sometimes the best. You better start smoking what I am.
I have dispelled the myth about fat and ugly chicks being good on a few occassions.
Fat ones are fat for are reason. THEY ARE LAZY!
The ugly ones have spent to long listening to their mothers and well meaning friends too long about how beauty is skin deep and it is what is on the inside that counts.
The only thing that counts is me getting her out of the pub before someone sees her, so I can do what I have to, and then tell the captain on the flight home what a great sort I picked up last night.

Metrosmoker; There are fat ones, and fat ones!! Depends on where they are 'fat', so to speak.

BTW, I am not necessarily speaking from experience!

Pinky I`m talking about she`s not he`s, but what ever flies your plane mate.
Like I have said, I have sampled a few to try and dispel the myth. From, you could do without that last chocolate size, too being able to live quite comfortably in the artic circle,(without thermal underwear!).
I don`t want to judge them, I`m just saying it s a matter of self respect. When they are wearing my pilot shirt and three bars, I would prefer they looked more like my sister than my capatain whilst they have me tied up and are telling me I`ve been a very bad passenger. If they put a bit of effort in then......Crazy times! Amazing wht a remote base and tropical heat will allow you to do.
