fu**k Million Air BKL go to Business AC Center down the taxiway, the girls are young and cute there(until 10pm anyway)

Well said! I used to work line at BAC years ago, much better FBO than MillionAir. And they actually appreciate and like their freight dog customers.

"You are now flying pax around and hate those whiny
ba$tards..."I'm cold"..."I'm hot"...Are you the pilot?...
blahblahblah...and wish that someone would come along
and pay a little more to haul checks in a frelling Aztec
again!"

You have to convince the RJ pilots in the hotel van that you really are a pilot despite your uniform of Carharts, sweater and dirty fleece jacket.

When you tell them what type of a/c you fly they don't know what it is because they just got out of Embry last week.

Happens to me every week at least once.

"When center asks how the ride is, you reply (while watching your app. plates float at eye level from the turb) 'not to bad, just a little rough'"

You don't ask for a lower altitude untill the fire extinguisher that's normaly bolted to the floor is somehow sitting on the seat next to you still in its mount.

Both of which happened to me lastnight....

Anybody use Weatherworks? I knew it had an audio warning that said "caution you are approaching a strong storm" well I heard a new one lastnight, 2x "caution you are approaching a rotating storm" WTF Is that? heh

....."When the last thing you do before going to bed is eat breakfast..."

....."When you squawk 3-4 things after your last flight, then see the same aircraft taxiing out for takeoff 20mins later..."

...if you have ever done your taxes, paid bills, or reconciled your bank account during your 3rd and 4th legs.

Used you airplane like you just went thru the dive thru, eating with your fingers and throwing food in the back.

The best thing the radar is for is sticking post it notes to.

...When gloves, coveralls, a ski-mask, and blankets are all items needed for wintertime flight.

Ever taken a pillow and a sleeping bag for one of your layovers...

When the graveyard line guy (king of the dips**ts) calls the cops on you for just going in the FBO for checking the weather radar on the computer. And tells you they don't like your kind in here, your not there type of clientel (even if you buy two hundered gallons of gas a day from them).

Sounds like Atlantic in MDW

How did you know???

I thought the radar was the mount for the little "deferral stickers".

(freightdog radio etiquette)

Freightdog: "Center, how about direct?"
Center: "How are you gonna navigate direct, seeing you are a /A?"
Freightdog: "With that heading you are gonna give me."

Proof we're all related somehow...


When every landing you've made the past 3 nights looks like my avatar.

When you say hi to the neighbors getting your mail each morning with a Coors (breakfast) in your hand.

Even though you never used to read, you're averaging 2 books a week now.........without an otto-pilot, of course.
