Three deep on spot 22 at LGA and 65 overall translates into misery if you are in a 1900 and have a full boat and no VCM!
 
Oh, the good old days...

Block or better and you can count on ALWAYS BETTER. That is the beauty being 3 deep on spot 22 in LGA and 65 overall in the departure line up.

And then you would turn the corner at Alpha going west bound to depart 13 via Alpha to B4, cross 4 at the end, go up Long Yankee by the MAT to Double D and be #66 for takeoff behind the Eagle Jungle Jet that has to return to the gate for more fuel cause he's been sittin for an hour just waiting to get across 4. And this is just the 0900 departure rush. Not to mention that you had 2+ hour flight southwest bound in 80 kt headwinds with a full boat.

I sure do miss those days. Makes ya appreciate how good ya have it now.

How bout it...

What I would give to be back in the ole Wild and wonderful days of the Tri State and the House of Evil with Topper...now that was the Golden Age of flying at Colgan before the empire took over.

Of course I did that on purpose. Although it was fun looking all the crap up!
 
Funny LGA stories...

How about the time when a Chatauqua FO was doing a walk around. The wind whipped his hat off and blew all the way down to the blast fence where Comair parks. He just watched it blow away and then shrugged his shoulders and just kept walking. Then there was the time when the wind blew so hard that it weather-vaned a Saab 90 degrees while chocked and parked at the gate.

Another funny wind whipped story is with a ramper who had a whole pizza. He was walking out on the ramp to the break room. Wind grabs the pizza box and blew the pie in his face. It was all over him. lol!

I guess he found a new way of eatin pizza!

I havent been to LGA in a long time and I miss the place...just wondering if a few people are still around LGA. First was a ramp supervisor. I think his name was Angelo or something like that...he usually tried to keep the ramp running smooth and always said "god bless" when he got the paper work from ya. Next person is the "state your gate" clearance guy...always pictured him wearing a monicle and sometimes with a top hat. Last but not least is Miss Cleo still on ground?

Now for funny LGA stories. Anyone remember about 4 or 5 years ago when a snow plow went thru the ramp and plowed all of the tow bars away and all of the rampies were digging in the snow pile by the fence??? Not so funny story but we were cleared for T/O on 31 a few secs later tower screams Colgan cancel takeoff cle....uh delta go around delta go around!!! (rwy 22 arrival) rotate and get over that hill that has "new york" on it just to see a side window full of Delta 737 in a steep turn trying to miss us...lucky the 1900 is a small target.
 
Let's get this thread back on track with its original subject.

Dang, that colgan pilot group is so stupid.

stupid stupid CPG!

Oh, and do us all a favor and learn when and how to learn the words "your" and "you're". That's second and third grade stuff here... then again, you probibally quit. Idiot.

Shy


"PROBABLY"

I guess you missed that word in the fifth grade eh?

Probably so................

:laugh:
 
Do I let this go???



Heeeh heeeh... heeh heeeh... Hey Butthead... heeh heeeh...

Huuuh Huuuuhh.. uuuuuhhhh Yeah... Those FA's are dirty.


The "dirty" Fa's are the best...............:pimp:
 
Wow... welcome to last Thursday... :rolleyes:

Flying jets is more boring than flying the 1900. The 1900 was an airplane that weak pilots couldnt hide in well. The 1900 changed my whole perspective on life. I felt with the hungry hot tired people of the world after flying that thing. Remember CA1900?
 
Hail to the light twin......
