I'm coming up on my 8th month of flying freight. It's been the most fun 8 months of flying I have ever done. 1 more month to go before I move on. I know i'm gonig to be sad when I do leave :(

Thanks.

I sorta figured there was still a little camaraderie left out there.

Who woulda thunk it was with all the ugly guys with dirty shirts?

Fly like you stole it!

Hey...I just washed this shirt.....
 
I'm about to become a Freight Pup and I couldn't be happier! Whats this sitgma I hear about getting the "Cargo Stink" on you?
 
Millenuim Falcon

Amen, from the comfort of my all expenses paid 3 day layover in Lagos after an all night flight in my APU broken, #1 thrust reverser locked out, #2 DME inop beat up 'ol barge that looks like it should have "Millenuim Falcon" painted on it!

Han Solo was a Freight Dawg & he got to bang princess Laya!

Amen-Amen, boxes don't bitch....
 
Try downloading a load of pigs from Vatry to Lagos, then going over to Entebbe and uploading a load of fish to take back to Vatry. Now that's some stank! And of course no APU!
 
Oh yeah?

Try a load of sled dogs in a Caravan strapped down to the seat tracks with a sheet of plastic on the floor.

Steamed up windows, dog breath, dog piss and a pilot who's allergic to dogs.

That was a pleasure.

Another Harrison Ford reference: "Snakes? I hate snakes."
 
try pushing back for a trip from paris to milan only to find out they forgot to put the tarimasu in with the catering....what's that all about?
 
My guess

I'd say the Italian baker's union went on strike!

Trivia: Tiramisu. A contraction of the Italian words Tira (Lift) mi (me) su (up).

How'd you ever get airborne?

Although most of the freighters I fly are not that old and definately not beat up, I'm so glad I don't fly passengers.

IHaveAPension is Rhoid, TheGuat, RJDC, LucyFurr, TheGuppyKiller, E170GuppyKiller, GuppyKiller, TheMissingLink, OUT, 410Dude, FreightNazi, ABXpert, among many others.
 
Nice try. I have never hidden my real name or where I work. And I have always and only posted as flx757.

However, I see that since most of your previous usernames are currently banned, you started a couple of new ones and now return once "IHaveAPension" was recently released from the penalty box. RJDC and LucyFurr should be getting out soon, so no worries...right?

How bout 500 head of deer on a 60 series DC-8 out of Aukland in the middle of summer...no APU, No recircs or operational A/C.. It's raining inside the airplane before we even block out of Aukland and the smell could knock the buzzard off a Shi-it wagon. Not to mention the 20 or 30 DMI stickers all over the cockpit. 100 + dead deer on arrival in the US due to heat exposure or, perhaps just plane fear. Poor Deer. I soooo miss those days.:bawling: :beer: :D

Capt Mark is funny. Hope to meet you soon as well. But "the smell could knock the buzzard off a Shi-it wagon" is downright hilarious! Priceless.
 
A-F'in-men, there's absolutely nothing else I'd rather be doing. You can't shut the whiny passengers up, but if the overspeed warning starts beeping in your ear, atleast you can shut her up by pulling the CB. Raising a glass to the pilots who know how to make it happen.
 
Raise a glass?? I'll raise a KEG to the freight dawgs that can outrun a Learjet in a Caravan.








Like me. :pimp:
