A fun game to play in the cockpit...

[JPAustin]

You can't play games in the cockpit, that might have the repercussion of keeping you awake and alert. You may only read company related material and stare blankly either at the instruments or out into the abyss.

I bet it's similar to Wheel Of Fortune on tv where everybody always choose R S T L N E for their letters.

In this case, the safe bets are Kentucky (sorry Bolier Up), West Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee and California.

Jersey, DC, "US Territory" is always a safe bet too. But these are usually all gone after the first few rounds, and you always have a sleeper like the homeless guy who cuts off his own junk in public in Vermont and things like that.

You can try the belching/farting-identify-the-smell game... "guess what I ate today."

The worst...

Let's see...Hummus, flatbread, lamb and curried rice. The only thing that could smell worse when flatulated would be if a skunk crawled up your arse and dies!

Kimchee and bbq'd (God knows what) is right up there too.

We like to play "level six" in dispatch. We see who can route planes with the least amount of fuel through the worst weather then place bets on who will get the first call.

The second game is called "hang up". That's when you call concerned about weather and we claim we can't hear you on your cell phone and hope you don't call back OR put all of the lines on busy so you can't get back through.

Now that's good times.

Looks like dispatchers usualy don't have girlfriends.

You must be an XJT dispatcher. Bad weather, 500 lbs contingency fuel, no alternate. Good weather, 1500 lbs contingency fuel, EFD alternate. Doesnt make any sense. Also giving us 2 minutes of extra fuel(yes I have seen it), WTF is that.

Six degrees of Kevin Bacon is fun.

I agree, but mix it up with all actors.
