How do you guys do it in places like Ottowa, Toronto, Montreal; Canada when it is winter and I mean WINTER say - C Plus windchill?

pre flight, no biggy. try loading freight into a falcon 20 with the cargo door open and snow is blowing into the cockpit. or when it is so cold it hurts to breath.
 
This one time, I did a walkaround when the weather was (really cold) and the wind was (really blowing) and the plane was (really the same POS I landed eight minutes prior) and I (really don't give a shyt).
 
no waitress gets flt benefits, and no waitress gets medical). been called in twice for that comment and the chief pilot laughed

Not true, almost all full time wait staff get both. My mother-in-law is a career waitress and has worked for Denny's, Coco's and a couple of other chains and they're all paying good bene's she with tips she clears about $45K/yr working 7-8 hours/day 5 days/week.. so your CA's are far off.
 
Just when you thought you've heard it all............

No $hit! I just can't even believe this would ever be an issue.

Anyone that would purposely not do a preflight should be fired immediately....it's a safety issue and NO I AM NOT KIDDING!
 
I know this chick, seriously, she was fired from my co. for something along the same lines.

As the FI.com resident sexist (Capt Mega can attest), I just want to say that I am certain that Gender and Walk Arounds are very unlikely linked. Now, position (i.e. Captain) and walk around, that's another story!

There we do sprint-arounds.
 
Don't worry guys all these little girls will be at FedEx or UPS after they get their 100 hrs of PIC. Then some other little Barbie girl will fill her spot!

Of course. That's a skill that my education at a large Northern Midwest collegiate flight program got me. Now if only my company would get rid of post-flight walk arounds. :rolleyes:
 
To hell with the walk around...if you are talking about the one I think you're talking about, I have heard from several captains that she just can't land the plane worth a sh!t. I don't care if she does a walk around or not if she's going to try and kill everyone during the flight! I'll go ahead and be a sexist @ss...why do the women who suck get to stick around? It's unsafe and makes the rest of us look like idiots. I know of a few guys that weren't as bad as some of the women and they got led out the back door. It's not sexual discrimination to fire someone for not being able to do their job!

Now, before all you reactionary types get your tits in a twist, I'm not saying women can't fly...AT ALL. Some of the most professional pilots I know are women. I'm just saying that being a woman is no reason to special treatment when people's lives are put in danger. Flame away.
