Too good to do a walkaround FO????

[KingAirKiddo]

Here we go! If I had a penny for everything I've heard that.. and then we wind up with mediocre pilots that have no place in aviation because "She" looks good.

btw.... I enjoy doing the walk around, I think it's almost the highlight of a flight.. getting up close and personal with one's airplane!

I like doing the walkaround because, with the APU running, I can say things like "I f#cking hate my job!!!" at the top of my lungs or sing and nobody can hear me...but that's just me.

Carry on...

Somebody skipped a walk around! Mother of god how could anyone possibly not do this cornerstone of safety. I like to get to the plane about an hour early that gives me enough time to get the job done right. First I do a walk around without the APU on. That noise can distract even the most senior FO. I then do a second walk around with the APU running to inspect the vital APU door region. This "two lap technique" also allows me to see if any puddles on the ground have expanded... The teltale sign of a leak.

When we land I'm usually off before the passengers to do my first lap. I usually wait until all services are completed before the second lap. That of course allows me to see if the ramp crews have done any damage.

To the accident waiting to happen punk who suggested weather conditions change the speed or frequency of a walk around I say... Hang it up you piece of garbage... You bring shame to an industry that prides itself on the finest trained 250 hours pilots in the world.

....says the girl with "Don't need any [ratings], I'm a chick" in her profile.

It's a joke son......targeted at the fools that say we all get hired with 100 hours TT at UPS.

Don't worry, I'm sure I have more ratings than you stud muffin.

Then you can't complain, sugar***s, when someone else makes that same joke.

I know this chick, seriously, she was fired from my co. for something along the same lines.

Same thing here.

Ok, well men should only be allowed to tend to my every beck and call.

I want you (your a$$) tight, I want it right......and I want all of you buff, none of this beer belly bull$hit. Period.

Threads discussing female pilots seem to always go on forever, don't they?

That's cuz men are so friggin insecure, that they have to make fun of females to make themselves feel more macho and more like men. It's quite pathetic, really.
