Freight Dawg The Movie

[30West]

So what can you make of this?

I can make a hat, or a brooch, or a Pterodactyl!



Roger, I was telling Victor that I reviewed the area
report for 1600 hours through 2400 there's a front
stalled over the Dakotas. . .

 

[Capt1124]

I can practically write the thing myself.

"Are you comfortable flying it like that?" (The answer is always, sure, no problem....)

"Yeah, we'll take care of that on the C check."

"You know, lots of guys would kill for this job...."

"We need team players here."

"That's the way we did it at Eastern." (Of course the speaker worked there from '89 to '91)

"I have absolutely had it with this place. I am so out of here..."

Voice over- "It was a rough job sometimes, sure, the hours were awful, the planes would be an embarrassment to a scrapyard, the pay was peanuts when the checks didn't bounce, the management all had judgements from civil court and quite possibly warrants from criminal court, and I never felt quite as lucky as I was always being told I was just to be here. But I knew it would all be worth it when I got that major airline job......"

 

[One Dot Low]

Wonder if they're gonna put a scene where Connie dropped a JT9D into Lake Michigan in the movie?

Or where one of our Skippers beat the living crap out of the two would be muggers in Belgium.

Where will it be? Wanchai, Nana Plaza or the Four Floors of Whores on Orchard...?

[lansen]

Or a scene with stuff flying around the cockpit from turbulence. ATC asks for a report for the RJ behind you, and you have to take three breaths so you can tell them "smooth" without crapping yourself. And then manage a smile when you hear them get the report.

They need to get caneman in the movie. http://youtube.com/watch?v=_3ttg4YJ1_Y&feature=related pretty damm smooth

The link takes me to some ****************************** canoe talking about 10 things i hate. You got a new link.

 

[LR25]

I dont know if this will be a good movie, it might hit to close to home, since I just flew the oldest 747 out of VHHH. It will give me flashbacks.

And yes, there was rubber dog sh!t on one of the pallets.

 

[phr8dawg]

My job:
Gas, blast,bank,yank,chop,drop,stop.

Repeat ad nauseum.

There's lots of nauseum.

 

[ABXbooger]

It's only gonna be about 15 minutes long, it will lose it's flow with the characters losing their jobs every 5 minutes...

 

[100-1/2]

The Hospital?!? What is it?!?

 

[Amish RakeFight]

The Hospital?!? What is it?!?

It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

 

[ATRCAPT]

Or where one of our Skippers beat the living crap out of the two would be muggers in Belgium.

Where will it be? Wanchai, Nana Plaza or the Four Floors of W************************* on Orchard...?

Or a scene where the whole crew get the Hershey Squirts in Jo-burg and cycles through the lav continuously all the way to Accra. C'mon, I know I'm not the only one.

 

[Spoolingbyu]

I'll never eat that again I promise!

Or a scene where the whole crew get the Hershey Squirts in Jo-burg and cycles through the lav continuously all the way to Accra. C'mon, I know I'm not the only one.

A lav? Lame. Try a scene greasing out an emergency steamer into a Lawn & Leaf bag in continuous moderate.

 

[goodgig]

Caneman took down the video?

Not SmooOOOoooth.

 

[pilotyip]

it has to be shot at KYIP, and they should "Moondog Academy"

 

[Princedietrich]

And let's not forget the dry-ice-in-the-chemical-toilet schtick.

 

[PURPLEHAZE21]

I'm currently on the 10 and it's now..."I'll have a cream and two sugars with my coffee...thanks" as I put my feet up on the provided foot strips and recline my chair back....my days are numbered...

 

[Igor]

I know just before the ending credits the airplane in the movie should be broken up and loaded on to flatbed trucks to be turned into something useful such as beer cans.

 

[spg2bmd]

And the credits will roll with the first line as:
And so on....

 

[spg2bmd]

or
And they all lost their jobs again and again...

 

[Dizel8]

FO: "Captain, we lost an engine!"

CA:"Son, don't worry, they'll find it!"

 

[Way2Broke]

My favorite thread in a long time.

 

[pilotyip]

YIP story

A story from Zantop, C-46 days at YIP. Capt gettin ready to start says "Check it clear on the right sonny", F/O looks over his right shoulder, and says "Clear, (pause) holy shoot, right back to the firewall" No engine on the right side, some walk-around pre-flight

 

[DC8CRIVER]

Maybe I can help ... I speak jive.

 

[Captainzero1]

Whose going to take the fat one in the movie.

 

[bobs98tlr]

I wonder who they'll get to play me....???

Zodiac??

 

[FreightGod]

Or a scene where the whole crew get the Hershey Squirts in Jo-burg and cycles through the lav continuously all the way to Accra. C'mon, I know I'm not the only one.

Never got the squirts in Jo-burg or Accra, but done the Delhi-belly a few times after consuming Indian catering. Should bring diapers next time .

The article was pretty spot on.
Not sure how they are going to film 40 hour duty days, but should be easy to show the tool-boxes full of pencils.

 

[phr8dawg]

"The fog is getting thicker!"

"And the deficit is getting LAAARRGGER!"

 

[Igor]

"Should we turn on the runway lights?"
"No, thats just what they're expecting us to do."

 

[Rokit88]
