Crew Fisticuffs!

[cobalt]

it was at LFT. our gate agent told us about it. I missed it by one day... darn.

 

[Kip Dynomite]

It would have been sweet if the both had guns.

 

[Speedtape]

Well, shucks, if it happened at LFT, I guess that means it could not have been our favorite ATR Captain!

 

[Speedtape]

Yeah, but our rampers can beat up your rampers.

Maybe so, but I bet Joey's fat-bottom girl, who makes his world go around, can whip your ramper! :smash:

I'd be pissed off if I had to overnight in LFT, too.

I wonder if the FO had a "matrix-moment" after he flung the coffee - time slows down, coffee suspended. He's probably thinking "Darn it, that was good coffee too. Why did I do that? Oh well, here we go..."

In my younger days, I'd have pummeled the 4-stripe clown. Now, I'd consider subtler forms of revenge, usually something along the lines of the telephone in the guys room, expensive room service, maybe calling some hookers (and their violent pimp in tow) to show up at his room at three A.M.

 

[tracearabians]

Damn ! I never get to see anything like this !!​

 

[tracearabians]

I agree ! If you choose to have a fight,have a friggin fight ! Nothing like a good brawl to clear the air!!
:smash:

And some people wonder where the bad name for regional pilots come from......Grow up. But if you do have to brawl - Kick some a$$ and make sure you win

Baja.

Blue Dawg Cafe is reason enough to overnight in LFT. Great food !
:beer:

The Mesaba FO is an extremely cool guy! I'm sure he put on a good show. He is a great guy with a unique style and certainly has a way with words.

 

[www.]

Where did this supposed exchange take place?

I think we should establish some rules for crew brawls, kinda like they used to have for duels in the olden days (maybe ALPA can do something about this). Here's what some of those rules might be:

1. Prior to challenging another crewmember, the offended party must clearly state "I challenge you, sir/ma'am, to a duel".
2. Since FOs are a lower lifeform than CAs, No CAs can duel with an FO. If a CA challenges an FO, said FO's CA must accept the challenge for him and duel with the offended CA.
3. Similarly, should an FO challenge a CA, said CA's FO must accept the challenge and duel with the offended FO.
4. Due to poor financial situation of most regional crews, the weapons choices will be limited. Flight cases may not be used (they're expensive). Jepp binders (with charts in them) may be used. Clip-on ties would work, so long as both parties are using a clip-on, otherwise one of the parties would have a length advantage.
5. Insulting each other's aircraft is perfectly acceptable during a brawl, for example "Your plane has 5 APUs!", "You fly a French-Canadian airplane!", "You fly a Mexican A320" etc would all work.
6. Insulting each other's airline (including any codeshare partners) is also acceptable.
7. Insulting each other's management team is not only acceptable, but encouraged.
8. You get the idea.

Feel free to add some more. I'm sure there are things I haven't thought of.

Please, will someone, anyone, just kick our Presidents azz. That would be better than 3 cookies for xmas.

[30West]

Thunderdome! Two men enter, one man leaves.....

 

[erj-145mech]

It must not have been too serious, they didn't swat each other with the rolled up USA Today's?

 

[BornFromJets]

This thread has turned into the funniest postings I've seen in a long time. My question did the winner get the take the FA's back their room. and I hope it wasn't our typical mesaba FA that they got to bag.

What about the FA's how do they factor in.....

Actually... shouldn't it be along the lines of Fight Club. What's the number one rule!!
