Should Muppets be Allowed to Fly?
 
At what stage should you pull the pin yourself? At what stage should CASA pull the pin?

I'll limit my response to:


Kermit & Fozzie YES

Animal NO

(I wouldn't trust Elmo, either)

in an attempt to keep this lighthearted

:)

Sorry I must be a bit slow, what was the question?

What is green and smells of pork?:rolleyes:

Blown Seal 15th Jan 2005 05:22

Kermitt is... and his breath does.:}

Sunfish,

What the ????, have you been in the sun too long my good man?

I think I need a little more info to make my decision.

Cheers, HH.

:ok:

Gonzo should never look down in the flare.... just in case he hooked his nose on the yoke..... ;)

Di, what was wrong with Animal? He was one of the only reasons I used to watch the show... just so I could see him 'going-off' on the drums..... Ah hang-on.... that was the late '70's wasn't it.... :}

Animal should have matured a bit by now... if his stitching hasn't frayed by now.

Now Beaker would be a worry..... :}

I don't know about Muppets flying but Silverbacks definately should not be flying!! :}

There is just way too much risk involved with their hair pieces dislodging and causing grief to other aircraft by way of FOD.

Oh and don't get me started on banana peels being strewn all over the ramp!! :p

They do a great impersonation of a local "live in the sky" traffic report though!

:E

The chaps who should never fly are Waldorf and Statler. They are so opinionated that neither could work with the other.CRM no chance of that. Now Dr Bob is different type, prolly does private practise and flys himself with nurse Janice.

This is the proffessioanimal pilots nitwerk how dare you sully its fine riputation !!!! I am aghast nay incensed.......right where's trhat pipe?:}

Pinky the pilot 15th Jan 2005 08:22

Don't think I'd fly with the Swedish Chef either! He'd probably start waving his meat cleaver about if the F/A brought him a cold coffee!

You only live twice. Once when
you're born. Once when
you've looked death in the face.

...............Chook botherer
 
Gonzo would make a good pilot being an Alien and all, it's just his cross spiecies fetish with the chooks would be a worry.

Ultralights 15th Jan 2005 10:27

yes, but would you give Big Bird the right hand seat? or chuck him in the back with the rest of the mob? or the galley?

gatfield 15th Jan 2005 11:01

I think we are limiting ourselves here to the muppets and due consideration should be given to our other fun friends.

Fraggles would be good I think.

Hobbits - no, wont reach pedals

Muppets - depends. Pigs in space dudes would be my chocie. Miss Piggy as the hostie of course.

Pepe the Prawn - yes, cos Pepe the Pilot sounds cool.

Telly Tubbies - No way, they can't speak proper telephony.

Bob the builder - nup , he can only build.

Fat Cat - He is far too rude, wearing no clothes.

Bananas in Pyjamas - undisciplined bananas that stay in their pj's all day would not make good pilots.

I've always thought that they got pilot uniforms wrong and that they should be wearing colourful skivies - so naturally I think the Wiggles would make excellent pilots.

Speeds high 15th Jan 2005 18:52

Vote SpongeBob for chief pilot!!!

biton 16th Jan 2005 04:19

when should you pull the pin?
 
I'm interested Sunfish. What was the REAL intent of your post?:confused:

Sunfish 17th Jan 2005 00:38

Some lurker will know.:{

yowie 17th Jan 2005 10:00

You forgot Humphrey B Bear,the perfect F/O!:ok:

Rogeramjet181 17th Jan 2005 11:27

I would have to say for my money, the ideal crewing and administration would be along the lines of:

Captain Animal
First Officer Kermit
Second officer Fozzy bear
Second officer Beaker (just because)

CSM The Swedish Chef

Senior Business class FA The Pig

Senior Economy class FA Oscar the Grouch

Approach controller Cookie Monster

Tower controller Sponge Bob Threshold Pants

CASA The two clowns from the balcony

As they were allowed to be astronauts, they must have held a cpl at some point...

Last time I saw, they were clubbing together to get the muppet theatre back after kermit lost it, so i doubt they've got the cash to fly right now.

locusthunter 18th Jan 2005 10:30

...and in the very first episode there's a "Big Bird Strike"...
