Sounds like expressjets 3 Cups. Lot of people talk bad about him too, but at the end of the day hes a good guy.

Have you called any of these supposed clowns out?
Or at least got their names and forwarded them to pro-stans? Or just log on here and make trouble???

I have called one out but did not do it with the tack and finesse that I hear awhile ago in the crew room

"I see your wearing your eppilettes upside down, you do know of course that that is the universal sign for alternative lifestyle pilots"

I almost shot diet coke out of my nose!

I fly out of DTW and i am so sick of "stu" its one thing to do it once and awhile, but this guy says these things every single flight

He's worth keeping around just for all his interesting writeups... How do you think the nonslip rudder pedal pads and pen holders got put on the Saabs? Nobody else ever writes that stuff up. How many of you write up the lights on the yoke chart holders on the CRJ. Not many cause every time I get in one it seems there's only 1 bulb working (barely at that).
We should loan him to Pinnacle. Within a week they'd be so sick of all his writeups they'd have a new good contract just to send him back here.

preemptive edit: Yes, I have asked him about the writeups. He's quite proud of them. He is like a kid in a candy factory anytime he (or the rest of the crew) finds anything to writeup.

Like the write up:
"Cockpit floor is too dusty/dirty, if rapid depressurization occurs the poor visibility in the cockpit will make it hard to see."

When maintenance came on the airplane they basically told him to F-off and clean the floor himself.
Some guys just don't get it. The sad truth is he actually is serious when he writes this crap up. That's whats so disturbing about it. I wonder if he cares that the Mechanics have more important things to do then replace pen holders that nobody uses?
Answer: He cannot comprehend that his actions are completely foolish and inapropriate.
Some folks will never get it.

But at the end of the day he's no "Ice Cream Man" or Crabtree.

I agree. I think it's time for Dale ot Joe to make a phone call. It's representing the company in a negative manner. You can't say "Clear to land on the Port side" every time you land at DTW. Enough is enough.

So I did a little digging and found out who it was. Obviously you now more than me because it was Stu M. What an F..in' idiot.

Hey tough guy, why don't you post your name too!

Don't know this guy at all, but I'll say this. If no one writes it up it'll never get fixed. That's why most of the planes you and I get into have broken yoke chart clips, busted pen holder that people DO use, etc. Just don't be an a** about it and delay a flight by writing up a pen holder. But even on the last flight of the night at a maint. station, people don't write stuff up.

Are some of the CRJ 900 pilots at Mesaba putting their epaulettes on upside down as an indication of “900” rank.

At SKW it means that you banged the FA the night before.

When I was at Eagle we had a captain like this, his nickname was professor, as he insisted that he was a professor at Auburn University in his free time. Oh and also that he invented the space shuttle windows. His initials are C.S.

Why don't you abide by the FARs and write stuff up the moment you notice them? Who cares if it delays a flight. It's the professional, safe and legal thing to do.

You expect FI to have anything of value on it's boards? This place is just flamebait and regional pilots saying how their regional sux less than someone elses regional.

Exactly my point. This forum is a joke!

I didn't post his name. I had know idea who it was. I just repeated it.

You guys sleep with the F/A's? Some of those hoes look like triple 7's!!! Did you need a map and compass to find the joy buzzer? I bet doggy style was pure hell wasn't it?

As I tried to explain to a mechanic complaining about his writeup as I was about to take the plane out" Hey it's job security to you and I'd have written it up too... What's the problem?" His response: " I get tired of fixing piddley crap". My response " So you'd rather be unemployed?" His answer. " No." Then he got the point and fixed the lights....

 

[XJohXJ]

Broken cockpit lights suck, especially in the winter time. Write 'em up.

It is, after all, part of our job discription.

Yeah, but does he know what it means?

Of course. This forum has no real value other than pure entertainment.
It's kind of like this.
