ASA Anyone else RIFing these 1.5L waters?

[Brasilia Pup]

I thought the bottle was for "Physiological Relief" when the lav is deferred. Sorry about leaving that half-full bottle on the flight deck. Thought I threw it away. Old ATR habits die hard ya know.

 

[homerjdispatch]

Either way, your complaining about piddly crap like this is laughable. It's not like they're making you pay for it.....

Now there ya go, giving Management ideas again!!!!

 

[JoeMerchant]

AMEN! How many controllers do you hear complianing about those 4 digit numbers each day?!? Who's idea was that?

ICAO mandated it....same organization that brought you the "english proficient" on the pilot's license, METAR/TAF, and the ABC airspace. Why we allow ICAO to dictate things is beyond me....

You do realize that 3/4 of the regional pilots out there don't know what you're talking about...

.....probably more than that...

 

[jeroom]

Can someone explain the iced tea/lemonade thing.

Here @ ASA we drink sweet tea...
That's something that you do when ya come from the dirty south...

Y'all are just showing your age, now.

(For the record I once read a book that mentioned something about airspace designations other than what we have now. From what I understand, the move was facilitated by the move away from open cockpits... )

...did your read about SAs and FTs? They were much better....we actually had temps in Fahrenheit...

Why do you think I was making it? Never was an ASA guy, but as a PDT guy they kept making me fly up in the smelly north. Had to make my own sweet tea to get a fix up there.

Yeah, showing my age.... I left out the Geritol from that recipe since most of your whipersnappers don't need it yet. Then again ya'll might feel more at home drinking down some Enfamil.

Heh, I'm 27 and I started flying just early enough to learn all about TCAs, ARSAs, PCA, CZs, SAs, and FTs before the feds went and adopted ICAO. I spent the next few years b!itching about it to fit in with all the old farts around the airport!

John and Martha King have a good video to explain the airspace transition for those who don't remember.

No you don't.

 

[Caspian27]

No you don't.

Well, not me personally...but a friend of mine...they got-it-on! Woowee!!!

 

[CRJCptn]

back to the real issue

I would think most people are using cups if they are leaving the half-empty bottle. If they are taking tugs off it then they take it with them.

as much as I would like to agree with you, the number of half empty dasani bottles I have found over the years makes me say no to the half emty liters,, sorry....

 

[ERJFO]

Does anyone actually like these things?

Yeah, I like them better than little bottles, I just take one with me all day.

 

[dispatchguy]

The next day, I had a large, painful, oozing herpetic pustule on my lower lip.

You had Johnny O on your lower lip?

I'd get that checked quick dude!

 

[Mesabi Miner]

At Mesaba, if you find a half-full bottle (I'm an optimist), you always give that one to the passengers and get a new one. Also, it's a rule that if you drink out of the bottle, you tear the label off to let the next guy know that there's spit in it.

Now, let's change the topic and dispute the environmental challenges of recycling all those thousands of bottles! They're number 1 recycling code after all!

Pick your bottles wisely!

Just flew in the Delta system for the first time in a few weeks. I agree the new watter bottles are just too HUGE....my captain drank the whole thing in one leg (but did the walk of shame 3 times).
