You slow all the way down to Vle?
You know the guys who drive the crash truck on a first name basis.
You tell yourself jokes at 3am and they are actually funny.
You have ever considered declairing an emergency and returning to land when you find out you don't have your MP3 player with you tonight, but don't seem to mind if the gear/flaps/gyro's fail.
The guys in the tower start refering to you as "buddy" "Bro" "dude" or "man"
You sing the same songs to yourself night after night, only changing them to sing your 'approach' song when you start down the ILS.
You get pissed when you have to get on the radio and it interupts said singing

Shodow...
I liked the 210 better than any of the lances...harder to
load, but a way better airplane. In fact I would have
rather been in 6Yankee Ba$tards than a lance, but it
really looked the freighter...
40259...the brown aztruck...she was my babydoll...
I couldda taken on the Iraqi airforce with that
machine...all she needed was a good bit of noseart!
Made "D" off of 23 in CLT in every type catbird had
except the 310...never flew it! (Delta is the one that
runs down to Signature isn't it?) I think they had
one of everything not beech!
Wonder what ever happened to "Tory" in FAY...
hehehe
keep the dirty side more or less down bro...

You might be a freight dog if...
you know who the Midnight Truckin Bozo is...
you know where all of the ESPN Radio stations are from Texas to Detroit...
you think the female controllers are hot (or not) by the sound of their voice...
you have more energy and willpower after a long day of bad weather, holding in a turd, ect., than the guys unloading the plane who seem to have their a$$es bolted to the couch (intended for those who've had the wonderful experience at an unnamed business at DET)

Midnight truckin bozo
Midnight trucking bozo...man i thought i was the only guy listening to him. I can catch 700 am broadcasting from Cincinnatti for my entire run if atmospheric conditions are just right. Now that I know i'm not the only one listening I'm sure i'm not the only one tempted to call the "no training required" trucking companies to make $00.47 a mile, lol.

You have ever been told that your overtaking the ERJ in front of you on the ILS by 40 knots in your trusty, rusty, 310 with a broken heater.
You are trying to run you plane up the as$ of said ERJ due to the fact that they made you late when they couldn't find the airport and wanted to be vectored for the ILS because (gasp) it's all the way down to 7 miles and 2800 broken.....

Your handed to the twr. and don't get a answer. Drive on the LOC. and land. Walk in the FBO nobody around. Walk into the back and everone is under the tables in the shop. Tornado chewing the crap out of the other end of the airport. Pissed that you can't get home on time because of the pieces of the twr and buildings on the runways.
Walk into the crap FBO to have dinner and realize some other FrtDoggy is munching the last bag of BBQ Potato Chips out of "your machine".
Take your girlfriend to work, recieve the Worlds best BJ at 03:00 @ 4k, light a ciggy and realize the Mic's been stuck. Fix the Comm problem and a Female Controller asks if you need a "assistance". Your girlfriend keys up and tells her, "No were OK now, I fixed the problem".
The new MX guy who has been working on your plane is led off in handcuffs as you arrive at base. Ask WTF, told he ran thru a school zone and they caught him in the parking lot. Arrested for DUI.
Bored, fly a few legs door to door without useing the Yoke or no worky A/P.
Waiting at the van leaving the motel, Delta A S S walks out and say's we don't ride with other crew's. Driver says, "no problem" and he places thier crap at the curb and takes you to the A/P. He appreciates the free rides to see his mom and dad.
Slam the door on your car, then realize it isn't the POS you've been flying.

You've ever taken a leak on the ramp!
You've ever slept in your airplane!
You've ever slept on bubble wrap!
You've ever dumped the cabin in flight because you can't stand the smell of your own farts!
You carry a ziplock bag in your flight bag just in case you have to go #2 in flight!
You've ever been asked to take the controls of the plane you're jumpseating on so the pilot can use his ziplock bag!

If you've ever taken the time to troubleshoot your inop. de-ice system while on an ILS to mins. in known ice..... and still kept the approach to ATP standards.
The guy driving the van is STILL giving you crap two months after he found out how much money you made (because it's a lot less than he gets driving that truck around)

If you use Holiday Inn shampoo and soap . . . . at your home.
If you've ever found yourself trying to close the cargo door from the inside . . . in flight.
You've ever been asked to 'please make your turn before the intersecting runway' . . .
ATC checks in with you before you check in with them . . . 'we've been expecting you'

If you use your hotel closet hangers...........to keep the light out.
If you use your ironing board.........to keep the light out.
If that stain on your Van Husen.......has been there for a year.
If you use any possible object in the room.......to keep the light out.

When you go into DET at 10pm on a Saturday night to drop off at Murray Aviation's little $hithole trailer, and you're scared to go in to get your papers signed, let alone take a piss.
And when you do go in, all the "nice" folks who are sitting around in there visiting with the employees look at you like you just walked uninvited through the front door of their house.
And you tell dispatch that if they don't see you pop up on the computer in 10 minutes, to call 911 'cause you've probably been robbed/kidnapped/murdered/etc.
God I hate that place.

Fr8dog
You know you are fr8dog when...
You take time to look up from whatever you are reading and realize that that your 40 miles out at FL410 .... and you still make it down in time!
You don't like to go out during daytime because the is too much light, too many cars on the road, lines everywher to do anything.
When the morning ATC guy askes " why do you guys always have to eat up whoever is in front of you? (PHL)
When ATC asks why he didn't get to see a better climb rate last night (on take off) when he gave you 14000 as initial altitude.

You know your a fr8dog when........
You purposely stuff blankets around the door before shutting it to cut down on the draft.
use your tie as a napkin
use a credit card to scrape off the inside of the windscreen so you can see to land when (not if) the heater quits.
when the engines leak so much they have fresh "oil changes" every 3 days
when you have to count how many times you turn the comm dial to change frequencies.
when you don't have to de-ice because all of the oil on the wings kept the snow and frost from sticking
when you realize that the pilot seat used to be gray in color like the "other" seat and not originally black in color.
when fss runs out of room on the flight plan section labeled "a/c color"
