Internet Porn is where it came from.

LOL! ha ha....no doubt.

I have probably seen a total of 5 good looking pilots in my short 8 year airline career.

Ain't that the truth!?

Okay, true story: last summer I had picked up an extra 4-day and as I meander on into the cockpit what do my eyes behold but a GQ cover model sitting in the other seat. Seriously, this guy was gorgeous, funny, personable and a great pilot who never slacked but was relaxed enough to have a good time while we were flying.

So the first night he asks me to join him for drinks downstairs and I'm thinking, hey no problem....he knows I'm married (at the time my husband and I flew for the same airline) and heck, it can't hurt to be seen with such a good-looking guy, right?

The second overnight is a long layover in LAX and since he lives there, he invites me out and we've got his car and all that. So out we go to his "favorite bar." We walk in the door and it takes me a full 30 seconds of staring at the naked men dancing on the bar to realize that I'm in a very, very gay mens establishment.

*sigh* What's the old saying? All the good one's are either.......

Suffice it to say that when I got home from that trip, I kissed my husband and offered up a silent prayer of thanks, ha ha.

No need to bring down all pilots just because he one of those guys that can only find a job flying freight for the rest of his career...

Oh well, not all of you can fly 767’s.

Hey, how did we cargo pilots get into this? I wouldn't trade cargo for passengers unless I positively had to! You all can have the hassels with TSA, overcrowded terminals weeding your way through a bunch of obnoxious overweight smelly people, having to deal with these same overweight smelly people when they become disgruntled about the piss poor service they recieve even though they are paying only bus fare to fly.

Fed Ex, UPS, Atlas, ABX, Astar pilots all earn just as much or more money than 767 pilots at the passenger airlines because of all the pay cuts they have accepted so the afforementioned obnoxious overweight smelly people can continue to fly for bus fare.

There are really only two things wrong with night freight.

1) The boxes don't get on and off the airplane by themselves.

2) Most of the flying is a night.

Since I haven't had to load and unload my own airplane for 25+ year I really don't care about # 1 & I'm pretty much a night person anyway, so # 2 doesn't particularly touble me. :beer:
Since I've hauled pax and boxed and some experience with both, I think I'll stick with boxes.

Boxes don't complain about the rough ride, the hard landing, get sick, hassle the (non extistant) FA's, or do any of the other things pax are wont to do. I can fly the airplane without having to worry about spilling the dowager's martini in 1 A, panicing half the pax and making the rest sick. CB's tend to disapate at night, and there is generally less traffic. Walking through the terminal wearing the monkey suit doesn't do anything for me. I'd fly in clean jeans, sneakers and T-shirt if I could, but mgmt would have kittens.


Veggies are not food. Veggies are what food eats!

 

[fartknocker]

I have to agree with erichartmann and pipejockey. I haven't flown freight for about 9 years, but I can't wait to get back into it!!

Internet Porn is where it came from.

Actually, adolescent boys were using that term to refer to thier friends' mothers long before Al Gore invented the internet.
