Any good stories hauling freight? Improvised Lav solutions, ripping off an FBO, getting the freight in on time being more important than your first born, and etc.... Lets hear some good ones
Once, we got called to pick up some freight, and they, uhm, said we needed to get there, like, right away cuz', uhm, they like needed it really bad, and, like, when we got there, we waited for 6 hours for it to show up. That, like, sucked. But we got to watch Girlz Gone Wild in the pilot lounge, and that was, like, awesome!
Freight Dog stories are like fishing stories, the only difference is they are true. Many of us could probably tell stories that you would not even believe.
Leardawg is right on, it is all about hurry up and wait in this business...at least in the on demand side of freight hauling.
Nasty frieght ramps, FBOs that hide the cookies when you pull-up, weird lazy truck drivers, Ice, Thunderstorms, INOP equipment, pressure to launch, delayed freight, Customs problems, and dispatchers that aren't even as smart as the fueler. That is the life of an on demand freight dog.
I know my airplane was in the hanger last week getting the holes repaired from the hail the guy who used it on another run flew through....breakin his airplane wasn't enough. What a jerk
