What's the dumbest question you've been asked as a pilot?

[Grey Ghost]

This one!

When I was a flight instructor they switched are uniforms to airline pilot uniforms. A few of us went to ponderosa for lunch and a lady asked me which airforce do you fly for? My response was the canadian airforce where envading, but we stopped for lunch.

No, seriously. Were you drunk for this post? The only correct answer is "yes."

While on Marta in Atlanta, in full uniform;

Random idiot: "Are you a pilot?"

Me: "No. I just play one on TV."

"Are you disgruntled?"

Sorry to all ASA guys/gals if I offend any of you, that’s not my intention…

This happened in Atlanta about 2 months ago, I was supposed to deadhead from Atlanta to L.A. on Delta, was wearing my uniform and I was traveling to “my” terminal on the terminal shuttle/train (or whatever it’s called).

This train was absolutely packed and I was sort of right in the middle of it. All of a sudden this really young looking guy (looked like 17 at the most) wearing ASA pilot uniform forcefully squeezes himself in and when he sees me he immediately starts a conversation from one end of the train to the other (in other words he’s pretty loud).
“Duuude, you work for UPS?!?!”
“How did you pull that off?”
“Man, you’re set for life, dude!!”

I said, “Well, thanks; you know it took some time; So you wanna work for UPS too? Have you applied yet?
His response, “Duude, I just got hired at ASA, only 450 hours man!!”

I know he was proud of his “accomplishment” but it was a little embarrassing as all the passengers around us were listening to our “conversation.” Overall, I know he was just happy to be an airline pilot and was totally harmless, I just thought it was kind of funny/embarrassing with all the “duuude” stuff right there in front of the passengers.

My captain was standing there with me (he was not wearing a uniform) and I think he laughed all the way to L.A…. He even called his wife a few moments later and asked: “duuude, so how’s your day?!”

And one week later we in turn had an amendment to our before takeoff checklist that calls for a "runway alignment confirmed/comair checks response"

how about everytime i deadhead, and some a hole passenger thinks that it is funny to tell the FA when she is serving drinks, "hey get this guy a beer on me"

I hope you are not serious, if you are you just made the dorky pilot thread.

This is from my dad:

- But do you actually fly it? You don't do you? The CA is flying it. Right?
- How many people can you carry?
- Why are you doing this when you made more money 7 years ago?

Yes I do fly it. It carries 50. I dunno anymore...

rinse and repeat he will aks it again after 2 months...

Funny stuff here!! I had a pax ask "what would happen if we lost a wing?" I couldn't even answer I was so amazed by the stupidity

Does the company make you sleep in a sleeping bag?!?!

Him : Banging all the flight attendants must be great!!!!
Me : Yeah, I especially like all the ones that need a walker to get thier old bones up and down the isles.

Kind of gets annoying when you have to declare an emergency because your FA's keep having heart attacks
