Oh dear lord! Makes me ashamed to admit I was EVER in CAP years ago!! I was around a... lets say... interesting group of CAP seniors (and I DO mean "seniors") this past week. They were assisting the OK Bureau of Narcotics with Marijuana iradication missions, working out of one of the airports I stop at everyday for fuel. While my plane was being fueled, I happened to walk into the pilots lounge, where I was quickly informed by this old geezer in a flightsuit that I was "interrupting their mission briefing", and was not allowed to come in that room until THEY were done. Now it was 104 degrees that day, and I had just spent 4 hours in the plane out on pipeline, so needless to say, this guy just propelled me to a level of pissed off that I dont get to very often. After looking at the door to make sure there wasnt a sign saying the room was closed, I (very rudely) informed Joe super pilot that this was the pilot's lounge, not a briefing room, I was coming in whether he liked it or not, and he could either take his briefing to one of the actual meeting rooms in the FBO, or shove it up his @$$, I really didnt care which. The other 4 guys just sat there with their mouths open, as this idiot says that I cant talk to him that way, because he is a Civil Air Patrol captain, and is on official business. I wont go into what my response was to that statement, but about that time the FBO manager (whom I've known for about 10 years) walks around the corner and tells this guy that it would probably be in his best interest to just move to a meeting room out of the way of everyone else. I think some of these squadrons are made up totally of old guys who couldnt hack it in the military, and now get off on getting to wear a flight suit.

And I bet that flight suit was stretched tautly across a pendulous gut, so it kinda looks like a really pregnant lady is wearing it. One smooth fabric dome from the base of the man-breasts to just above the knee.
 
Very funny story, can't really blame you. I do believe that the CAP is a good organization though, I have to admit that if it wasn't for the CAP I wouldn't be in my present employment, I have to thank the CAP.
 
Yeah, I think the organization as a whole is a good thing. It's just the bad apples in the barrel that cause the problems with the organization's image.
 
I am truely embarrassed to be in CAP. I am doing my flight training through the CAP now. My instructor won't and doesn't want me to wear the flight suit because "it offends real military personal for trying to imitate what they do". I believe what he said is true. Some of the CAP cadets and seniors are just way too hardcore about it all...
 
I dont think it's the wearing of the flight suit that offends military pilots... I think it is more that piss poor attitude that some of these little (and old) wannabe's portray while they are IN the uniform. I've heard a bunch of comments over the years from military pilots about CAP members, and cant remember anyone ever specifically griping about them wearing a flight suit. I can, however, remember MANY comments about the attitudes and lack of professionalism that is displayed by many in the CAP.

Oh ... you've seen me wearing coveralls recently. Loverly, ain't I? :D


(Jesus I gotta get back in the gym. :erm: )

You must be my belly-brother. All I gotta do is look in the mirror nekkid and imagine the jumpsuit. (Oh, and while I'm at, I imagine the porn star proportions, too.)
 
With CAP its hit or miss. Your experience has either been really good or really bad with a squadron or members. Mine happened to be really good and i wouldnt trade the experiences i got in CAP for anything. Where i come from its treated as a professional organization, and the Cadets are on par with some of the best real life officers i have seen.
 
Why didn't that Donkeylips lookin "First SGT" join in on the run...and why were his pushups all half-pushups.

Surely somebody higher up can beat that dumbass with a bar of soap and nobody would mind.

Ah, yes. Pyle... it's all so clear now.

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: What's your name fat-body?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, Leonard Lawrence, sir.
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Lawrence? Lawrence what of Arabia?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, No, sir.
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: I don't like the name Lawrence, only faggots and sailors are called Lawrence. From now on you're Gomer Pyle.
 
I remember stopping by one of the local CAP headquarters in NYC once and was very unimpressed by the members. All seemed so dorky and almost none of them even had pilot certificates and nothign really past a PPL. Just old fat guys that changed out of their work clothes to don these uniforms. There were some younger recruits, all under 18 yrs old and were bossed around and IMO looked ridiculous.
