Legacy Bashfest - Bring it on!

Well you'll be happy to know that 8HRRule has been permanently banned (by another moderator).

I know, but I'm still in the island, 7 days.....

ATC: "Falcon XXXX, stop your climb at FL 350, and reduce to .73 mach or less"

FalconCapt: "XXXX Center, WTFO????"

ATC: "Sorry guys, slower traffic above you, same direction, doing their best impression of a high altitude road block".

FalconCapt: "Aw...don't tell me..."

ATC: "Yeah (sigh)....it's a WSCoD"

FalconCapt: " a &%*^% WSCOD! I knew it! Can't you have it...you know....shot down or something?

ATC: "In my dreams Falcon, but they don't let me live out my fantasies when I work. Can you give me .83 or better?

FalconCapt: "Sure"

ATC: "Okay, increase to .83 or better. As soon as you're clear I'll climb you up in front of that mother......ing WSCoD close enough to show him what a real airplane looks like."

FalconCapt: "Okay, we only smelled him before, but now we have the WSCoD traffic in sight at 20 miles...make that 12 mile...7 mi....no wait, 4 miles.....whoa!,..Center, I've never seen the a$$-end of an airplane tail come at me so fast!"

ATC: "Heh heh, yeah, I heard we made them paint stripes on 'em so you other guys wouldn't mistake 'em for clouds. Falcon XXXX, I know this is an understatement, but WSCoD traffic no factor. Climb now to FL 450"

FalconCapt: "Climbing to FL450, Falcon XXXX.....$**&^ing WSCoD"

ATC: "You said it, man....*$(&#@ WSCoD"...

Funny thing about this piece is that if you substitute the WSofD to a Falcon, and the trailing Falcon to a Gulfstream, guess who would be the roadblock now? Other than pointing the Falcon straight down, the Gulfstream blows the doors off the Falcon (at least a F2000 vs GV) It's pretty hard NOT to be in a Gulfstreams way!

 

[AA717driver]

Yeah, but unless you're in the bowels of FSI SAV or the factory across the parking lot, most G-whatever guys will tell you they respect the Falcons.

Haven't flown one but would like to. At least they aren't hanger queens like GLEX's... Oops, sorry, I retract the statement.

Yaaak--That post was great. That was up there with the movie of the guy nailing his ex-girlfriend's mom. LMAO.TC

Has anyone else noticed that LegacyIIDriver has been strangely absent/quiet???

Maybe his account "doesn't work" again!!! Like all of his other excuses!

Shall we start taking bets as to what name he resurfaces as next...

Let's review what he has used so far (in chronological order):

Skull-One
LegacyDriver
vraciu
LegacyIIDriver
???????

Anyone??? Anyone??? Buehler???

The 2000 vs. almighty G-V granted......no contest! But....

....the scenario would be slightly different. Firstly, the GV would be asked to stop his climb at FL450 on his way to FL510, because the Falcon would be at FL470. Now, if it was a climbing G-lV (instead of G-V), no conflict is possible because he's leveling off 2,000' below me, so no worries (granted, watching it shoot by below would probably give me Hotel/Challenger near-miss flashbacks).

Now if you used the low WSCoD altitudes taken from the scenario instead, the GV would be asked to slow to .83 (instead of .73) because the Falcon would be doing .84 or a tad more. (why push it up to .865?). But FalconCapt flies a 900EX...he's the guy who was flying that fateful WSCoD day...and his airplane would generate better numbers than a putt putt 2000.

If a 2000 wants to run away from Gulfstreams, we have a tactic we use to surround and herd them down to low levels where we make use of our 370kt Vmo....which really bugs 'em. We just have to watch out for the Fokkers down there. Btw, do they tether those things or something? (heh heh)

But all this is so off the point, and that point is................



..........WSCoD!!!

 

[English]

Yeah, I think the new screen name should be WSCoD, too.

You forgot Skull-Two, a$$hole.

Ban this: *middle finger*

 

[G100driver]

Careful there now. Do not get yourself banned. This is still funny you know.

Word to the wise. Scotch and aviation forums do not mix.

 

[LegacyIIDriver]

It wouldn't be funny if he and I met face to face. I'd be in jail and he'd be in the hospital.

Enjoy your fun without me. I'm gone! The stupidity level has surpassed my tolerance...

It was...well...interesting.

Adios!

 

[G100driver]

You will be missed. I for one will be very sorry to see you go. Good luck to you. You really should spend some time in a G-string or frog ship. You will then know what we are all talking about.

 

[LegacyIIDriver]

To you I say, thanks, G100. Perhaps one day I will have the privilege... *salute*


*POOF*

Now wait a minute, you said I was the one losing because I made what you thought was some irrational comment, now you go and do this???

Now this, well this is a threat... So we'll leave this up as proof/evidence... Reverting to hostilities now, tisk, tisk, tisk... and to think, YOU started this thread... What were you thinking???

*POOF*

What is this? The sound a WSCofD's engine makes as it blows itself out in the thin air at FL410??? Or the sound it makes when you run it out of fuel "beating the book numbers" and trying to fly it 3,400+ NM???

 

[CatYaaak]

To you I say, thanks, G100. Perhaps one day I will have the privilege... *salute*


*POOF*

"POOF"??? What's that? what's that poof? did anyone else hear a poof? I distinctly heard a poof!....did I just hear the signature poofing-sound "poof" of a Brazilian circuit breaker tripping? No, it can't be, those things never trip, they aren't even necessary...nothing breaks. So what else could it be.. Uh oh, omg omg.....does this mean...WSCoDriver, are you there?...Say it ain't so....he's....(sniff)......he's......(sniff)..(sniff)....


..NOooOOOOooooooOOOOOoooOoo....

......ooOOoooOOOoooOOooOHcrap!



I guess it was the sound of the breakers tripping his head, and gee I miss him already, but now what am I supposed to do for fun? (sigh) Oh well, there's always Teamster-hassling over on the Frac Board.

 

[Dizel8]

So much talk about a frigging airplane!

How this has not turned into a BBQ thread by now, blows my mind!

Such maniacal devotion to something as stupid as an airplane? I mean, it's not like he insulted your family or something, dude... it's a hunk of freakin' metal! (Scrap aluminum must be cheaper than composites in Brazil ) To actually feel like violence would be necessary over something that inconsequential makes me think you aren't psychiatrically qualified to be in command of a golf cart, much less an aircraft.

And what an aircraft it is, too, right? I've been flying this POS for years... I mean, even if you flew a GV or BBJ or something I couldn't see caring about it enough to put this much effort into defending it... but an RJ???

Geez, why dontcha get a job with a regional? The pay might suck, but you'll be among your own kind (we even let you all have your own side of the crew room, where you can congregate and talk about flying a jet, while we hide over on the other side and discuss important things like women, barbecue, new job prospects etc...

Sorry, but 40 pages of this? You're out of control, man. It's a pipe. A sucky one at that. Let it go...
