Who is the biggest loser you have flown with?

[StandBy1]

Well, there was the guy that thought he knew better
about orperating the 210 and cracked a bunch of
jugs.

But I've been at regions air for so long that I have
to be the biggest looser I know! Heck, I remember when
it was a fun place to work...and some people at hq
at least seemed to care about qol and not taking
perks away from the employees.

BTW, FN, I really love your new avitar! Do you
have her number?

Hell, you can't call it a jug unless it's on a round engine. Sorry. but a 210 doesn't cut it.

Back in the day when I was flying on demand cargo we had quite a few losers.



The Captain whos wife allowed him 5 dollars per day to eat on. The wife who also called dispatch 27 times per day to try and locate her starving husband.

The Captain who on a 10 day rotation would carry an onion, and a block of cheese as a snack.

And.............for those who knew him, and flew with him. Does anyone remember Precious?

Hey f### nuts show some respect. Precious is no longer with us. He died in his sleep a few years back. We all should be so lucky. Regardless, he was a better stick than most, even if he was a little off. You sound like Portera.

Precious died of a stroke about 3 years ago. I knew him and yes he was weird. Tread lightly

Isn't that The Russian?

Yeah, that's me! I make sure to put F-14 in the second column if I'm on a "mission". And, since I have my ATP, I log every flight as PIC, even if I don't have a type!

Can't wait to get to the Majors!

I cannot believe I missed this! *Laugh*

I won't say which airline I fly for, but I'll just mention that I fly a 1900 and we have a somewhat controversial training program. We had this guy in training with the mental capacity and maturity of an orangatan (seriously, I think he may have been mildly retarded.) He had numerous problems in training, a poor attitude, and terrible hygiene. In training, he once moved his hand from the left prop lever to the right one (after he'd confimed the left one was the failed side) and feathered the good engine. People who'd known him in primary training said he'd failed every check ride to date at least once. He managed to pass the airline's rides, but failed the oral walkaround exam after he confidently told the check airman that the generator produced 3,000 volts and was located somewhere in the wing (belt drive, maybe?) The best moment, however, was when he flew home and attended a wedding in his uniform. He now flies for Pinnacle.

V2! Hahaha!

These are funny.

Here's mine:

Flew with a guy that pluralized everything during a radio call. Ex "Vegas approaches citations 1234's at 8000s information deltas".....WTF

Wife tracked his flights an called him immediately after we landed. He chatted while I tossed bags and put the airplane to bed. EVERY TIME

Another guy flicked boogers all over the cockpit and picked his scabs on his arm. Then they would bleed. So we had bloody napkins all over the cockpit

One guy would pee in a bottle on every flight over 3 hours AND THEN hold the bottle between his legs for the remainder of the flight. After we landed he'd carry it under his arm, try to hide it, go to the restroom and dump it IN THE SINK and rinse it out for next time!

I know I've got more.................

Great, let's not start another one of these threads.:laugh:
