I have never...

Re: Re: I have never...

I've never been late to the airport because the flight attendant slept through her wakeup call. Twice.

Hey Typhoon,

On this one, I'd be very certain that you explain it so that your wife has no reason to believe that you had anything to do with the FA oversleeping.


And while we are talking about flight attendants:

I have never asked a flight attendant when her baby was due only to be told, "I'm not pregnant!" If that had happened, service to the cockpit would have probably gotten somewhat sparse after that.

 

[C/L Max]

Oh, I almost forgot. I have never...

...over torqued an engine on a go around.

...gotten to my destination, only to find the departure station's copy of the release sitting on the glare shield.

...departed the gate late because I misread the release's valid time.

...inadvertantly set the Saab's CTOT too high, set the power levers too low, and broken everyones' necks from the acceleration when the FO flips the switch (like a surprise catapult shot, if you will).

Whew! It's a good thing I've never done any of those things. Ever.

Honest engine.

 

[cessna_driver2]

Gotta add a few..



...practiced unusual attitude recoveries while doing paperwork in a non-autopilot aircraft in IMC.

eek:

I guess you have to stay on top of those unusual attitudes

Good point. I can assure you I had nothing to do with it. This particular F/A, although a nice gal and very good at her job, is old enough to be my mother. And as one of my first officers once said, "I ain't goin' down like that..."

Me, personally, I've never slept through a wakeup call during a layover. In Houston.

- Told ground "I have information S" and then 5 minutes later ground make the statement "Information S is now current"... woops... busted on that one... thank god it wasn't me.

- I never have applied pressure to the yoke with the autopilot on causing it to go way out of trim and then let go .... the ubrupt correction waking the Captain up.

- and I have never done about 90% of the posts on this thread... really I havn't

 

[chperplt]

I have never waited for my FO to trim the airplane out then stuck my feet behind the control column and sent the airplane into a slight decent... only to let him retrim and then let go.. And I never did it for 4 days straight.

 

[Captain X]

Okay, for all you current and ex-Brasilia drivers:

I have never...

...shut the airplane down with the back-up battery still on.

......nor made it to the hotel before I realized it.

I've never tried to use the same flight number all day long.

I've never gone on a tirade about verifying the AutoFx switch position with a new-hire IOE while taxiing out, only to have to reject due to "Ding-ding-ding! Autofeather!"

I've never flattened both right mains showing a new-hire how quickly you can stop the E-120 (on a 7000' runway).

I've never "accidently" selected CON thrust instead of CLB to make a commute home.

I've never flown from LAX to ELP in a Lear 25 w/o turning the pilot O2 on.

I've never had a cute FA "pass out" in my room an overnight, in YYZ, with free porn and beer. It didn't happen in BUF either.

I've never told the FO I needed to take my headset off for a minute, at night w/my hotmike off, then sneak the boom mike down by mister browneye, go hot on the mike and let one fly.

I never remarked how my boom mic smelled like ass after that either.

I've never said to an FO: "Dude, check out this hot chick getting on board." only to find out she was a 13 year old Unaccompanied Minor.

I've never told the FA to "Get this chick thats getting on's number for me." only to find out it was the FAs underage daughter coming on the overnight with us.

I've never said to an FO: "Dude, check out this hot chick getting on board." only to find out she was a 13 year old...

Bonus points if her father catches you looking. (Never happened to me...in DFW.)

 

[VNugget]

I have never, ever tried to casually sneak into a conversation with a girl how I'm (gonna be) a pilot.

 

[dmspilot00]

I have never dug up a thread that was a year old .
