I've had some worthless copilots....

What did he call Trans Atlantic 1st Class?

Steak and Blowjobs service?

All they need to do is to pop their "teeth" out.

The Traveling public does not have any understanding of the first officer's role. Just the other night a flight attendant came up and thanked the captain I was flying with for getting them home safe, said nothing to me and walked off the flight deck. I saw the same thing when I was captain. Single pilot operations will happen someday. Think about it, the train you take between terminals doesn't have anybody at the controls. Last time I checked there are no more flight engineers on newer jets. The day is coming folks, probably not in our lifetime but it's coming.

I'll bet you'll see single pilot cargo ops in the not too distant future.

As much as I want to support my bredrins, sometimes I think that is better to be alone than in bad company

Or an operating autopilot.

Really? And what would you suggest if there is no autoland capability at that airport or on that particular aircraft? What if the winds are greater than the certified capability of the autoland feature even if it is available? You think that a flight attendant could come up there and program the aircraft properly? Configure the plane properly?

You must fly with some really awesome flight attendants. Mine have trouble with the meal requests much of the time.

Now how are we supposed to get that nap in if we are single pilot? Seriously, fatigue will kill that idea.

Why do we need airline CEO's, I think a highly trained monkey could do a better job....
