Question for AMF PDX pilots

[citabriapilot]

ESF also flies the 99...

And what the HECK is a Golgothan? Isn't that where He-Man lives or something? Sorry, I'm a young pup.

 

[DirtyBeech]

Buff,
No. They handed me the type when I accepted the job offer. Now the question remains. Who will use their type sooner? You or I?

Citabria,
How do you expect to upgrade to Master of the Brozilla when you don't have proper knowledge of He-Man and The Masters of the Universe? You just made Skeletor's sh*t list. The Golgothan was the poop demon summoned to attack the last scion and Jay and Silent Bob in the movie Dogma. With that in mind it is what I have dubbed my half beagle half weiner fecal factory of a dog. We also refer to him as the beiner.

I'm laughing so hard I don't even know where to begin... :laugh:

First of all, I was 3 years old when He-Man and the Masters of the Universe was canceled. I only barely caught the reruns on Cartoon Network a year or so ago... Not all of us are old enough farts to impress others with our "gee whiz" He-Man knowledge. Now, I do remember a "Gargamel"... Smurfs I think. Somewhat easy to confuse with Golgathon or Castle Grayskull.

As for your dog... Something like this?

Close, but he's blonde and if he isn't stuffing his face he's using it to grimace while he takes a grumpy.

 

[citabriapilot]

A "grumpy"??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Do I know "Bank Bag"? I don't think I ever heard that story... At least it was a 402 where he could get a hold of a bank bag and not a Chieftain with that stupid wall in the way.

ESF did you skip the 99 and go straight to the Metro?

No, I flew the 99 for awhile and will stay qualified in it.

And some of us are too d*** OLD to have watched He-Man. lol

You AMF PDX types are in luck that Gary got rid of the Caravans you had, I spent years out of PDX in the van and it handles like crap in the wind. I would take the Navajo, 99, 402, low wing any day. Fact is I hear some vans were damaged in PDX yesterday, no details, anyone hear the same?

The best thing to do with a Caravan is use it for target practice!

As for the PDX WX, typical PDX ATC, delay, delay, delay!

With the exception of a couple of controllers, PDX ATC rivals PHX for incompetence!

Next time I should take after you and completely bypass all of the useless incompotence and deviate to more hospitable soil, alabeit the thought of staying in that dump of a hotel at night makes me cringe. I usualy don't pack thinking i'm going to stay in the ghetto on day trips, you know knives, guns, and a midget to stand guard. :uzi:

Come'on Buff. I thought they based He-Man on you after seeing you strut your stuff Adonis style in the old flight suit. Sadly, after seeing my uniform clad physique in action someone was inspired to creat Nacho Libre.

Yeah, and I wish Nacho Libre had done better so I could make more in royalties.

Hahahaha. Just out of curiousity, if your uniform is spandex like in Nacho Libre, do you still wear your tie or is it painted on? Plus how are the cold characteristics of said spandex, the wind is starting to pick up and the ramp up here is getting a little drafty. Oh and how's the package improvement, there's a few fruit loop loaders that i'd be worried about.

I don't have to wear a tie because I am so hot, it is ALWAYS over 85 degrees when I am there.

I've seen your kind doing TDY before, they're the ones who bring a pair of shorts in the middle of winter. Navy blue of course, with black socks.

Nah, I don't like to embaress the rest of you by making a spectical of my chiseled legs.

Hell yes I still wear a tie. The real question is whether or not to put it over or under the cape. Under looks better, but over cuts about 3 seconds off the time required to disrobe and dive into that freight dog quality hotel bed. As for the cold and Spandex I agree it sucks but the solution is simple. I just leave at scheduled block regardless of whether the customer has finished loading or not. I never have to enter a delay code, and it really cuts down on the offload at the outstation. As for package improvement I recommend the following study material: Spinal Tap. Get that reference and you'll know how I roll. No worries about the light in the loafers variety, but we do have a female version on our ramp. I think it's a female anyway.

Funny, I think it's over 85 degrees EVERYWHERE except BUR... Global warming? El Nino? Who knows...

 

[DirtyBeech]

Funny how it stays cool out there isn't it. And I thought the four inch wide tie knot look was smokin.

 

[citabriapilot]

THAT tie must be at least 4 feet long, cause I can't for the life of me make a tie with a 4 inch knot. It's even 85.1 degrees in SLC. Can you believe that???
