Who is the biggest loser you have flown with?

[G100driver]

Your roomate had serious mental problems. I am sure that right now he is pushing a shopping cart playing with his shat in an alley.

It was the real thing. He'd then use whatever was handy (The bottom of shampoo bottles, combs, etc) to crush them up so most would go down the drain. And not clean off whatever it was afterward. After awhile the drain would clog and I'd have to use the toilet plunger or a plumber's snake to clear the blockage, because he was always too lazy to do it. Pansy or not, it was fuggen disgusting.

That is GROSS!!!! What a freakin neanderthal! The worst I do is crop dusting down the aisle of the plane and watch the look on the passenger's faces!

I don't understand fecal freaks, never will. Also that is a serious health issue. You roommate needs some professional help.

"sweet, sweet irony."

my GAYdar is showing extreme flamer!!!!

That is the funniest response I've ever seen on these boards.

Thank you sir.

Fly with a guy who wears a knee board and cuts down a Nat'l Forest before departure. Same individual will call 3 days before to brief the flight and then wants to discuss which leg you want to fly. Also, a few years ago when fuel prices skyrocketed, he decided to fly long range cruise between CLT and RIC to save the company $$.

 

[135fr8r]

I saw this daily when doing my initial flight training years ago...... Any young flight instructor who thinks he/she is God because they can fly the "twins" solo unlike students due to insurance/school policy.

 

[AV80R]

I fly freight and I have a SIC (one that pays for time) that shows up in a pilot uniform when we can wear shorts and a t-shirt...

Is this the guy? (y'all be nice, it's actually kind of funny)

 

[Say Again Over]

3. FO I had, who upon finding out I called in fatigued and told dispatch that we would go to the hotel at the next station, decided to call them back behind my back and tell them I changed my mind. Just so we could reposition to a place with better strip clubs.

That's a good FO!

 

[kingaira90]

Speaking of this, I had an ex-roommate who had a bad habit of ********************ting in the shower. I complained about this because it was nasty and clogged the drain. He said it was acceptable for guys to do and I was being a pansy. I moved out, so it's not a problem anymore, but I was curious just how widespread this is.

oh...... I just threw up a little bit in my mouth! -kingaira90

 

[Sawmill]

Ive never flown with a loser...wait...that make me the biggest loser! Doh!

 

[StandBy1]

Well, there was the guy that thought he knew better
about orperating the 210 and cracked a bunch of
jugs.

But I've been at regions air for so long that I have
to be the biggest looser I know! Heck, I remember when
it was a fun place to work...and some people at hq
at least seemed to care about qol and not taking
perks away from the employees.

BTW, FN, I really love your new avitar! Do you
have her number?

Hell, you can't call it a jug unless it's on a round engine. Sorry. but a 210 doesn't cut it.

 

[StandBy1]

Back in the day when I was flying on demand cargo we had quite a few losers.



The Captain whos wife allowed him 5 dollars per day to eat on. The wife who also called dispatch 27 times per day to try and locate her starving husband.

The Captain who on a 10 day rotation would carry an onion, and a block of cheese as a snack.

And.............for those who knew him, and flew with him. Does anyone remember Precious?

Hey f### nuts show some respect. Precious is no longer with us. He died in his sleep a few years back. We all should be so lucky. Regardless, he was a better stick than most, even if he was a little off. You sound like Portera.

[mach3matt]

Precious died of a stroke about 3 years ago. I knew him and yes he was weird. Tread lightly

 

[The_Russian]

Isn't that The Russian?

Yeah, that's me! I make sure to put F-14 in the second column if I'm on a "mission". And, since I have my ATP, I log every flight as PIC, even if I don't have a type!

Can't wait to get to the Majors!

I cannot believe I missed this! *Laugh*

 

[The_Russian]

I won't say which airline I fly for, but I'll just mention that I fly a 1900 and we have a somewhat controversial training program. We had this guy in training with the mental capacity and maturity of an orangatan (seriously, I think he may have been mildly retarded.) He had numerous problems in training, a poor attitude, and terrible hygiene. In training, he once moved his hand from the left prop lever to the right one (after he'd confimed the left one was the failed side) and feathered the good engine. People who'd known him in primary training said he'd failed every check ride to date at least once. He managed to pass the airline's rides, but failed the oral walkaround exam after he confidently told the check airman that the generator produced 3,000 volts and was located somewhere in the wing (belt drive, maybe?) The best moment, however, was when he flew home and attended a wedding in his uniform. He now flies for Pinnacle.

V2! Hahaha!

 

[BEfly]

These are funny.

Here's mine:

Flew with a guy that pluralized everything during a radio call. Ex "Vegas approaches citations 1234's at 8000s information deltas".....WTF

Wife tracked his flights an called him immediately after we landed. He chatted while I tossed bags and put the airplane to bed. EVERY TIME

Another guy flicked boogers all over the cockpit and picked his scabs on his arm. Then they would bleed. So we had bloody napkins all over the cockpit

One guy would pee in a bottle on every flight over 3 hours AND THEN hold the bottle between his legs for the remainder of the flight. After we landed he'd carry it under his arm, try to hide it, go to the restroom and dump it IN THE SINK and rinse it out for next time!

I know I've got more.................

Great, let's not start another one of these threads.:laugh:

 

[Aviatard]

nevermind... jjbiv beat me to it.

 

[longhaul]

Back in the commuter days I had an relatively mature FO who wasn't dangerous or anything, just a little slower than most. One day this check airman, who had it in for the older guy, comes along for a ride, and in the middle of the flight berates my FO for not saying "thank you" to the controller after getting a clearance direct! The biggest loser, was of course, me, for never telling our chief pilot what a jerk this guy was.

"You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means."

INCONCEIVABLE!!!:beer:

sorry to breathe life into an old thread.

 

[spg2bmd]

The captain I flew with who stood up and peed in a bottle. He had bad aim and peed on the floor instead.

 

[JPAustin]

This guy wasn't a loser at all, but he was always interesting to fly with. He was a very fundamentalist Christian (Methodist myself) and he always felt compelled, even if he knew you, to evangalize on every flight.

I always admired his unwavering faith, but geez did it get old, and you know you would have felt bad if you told him to give it a rest, so you were kind of stuck nodding your head every few seconds.

 

[goodgig]

Not me.
Start praying to Satan to make him stop. When he stops, ask him which God listens better.

[Skaz]

so many losers, so little time...

1 - guy who organized with owner of company to fly FOR FREE and cost another guy his job because of it

2 - guy who causes $25 000 damage to belly and wing of B190 while low flying in Angola...then second guesses your actions during abnormal ops when he wasnt there

3 - younger, lower time captain who proceeds to regail you with tails of his exploits in 'much more difficult to fly' aircraft than he thinks youve flown

4 - CA's who dont know their flows, misses callouts that create um...situations, and then want to blame guess who...

5 - guy who tells everybody how he saved the day from the JUMPSEAT and how that crew should be glad he was on board...should have been knocked flat on his ass

[Friedaloo]

I got one!

How about the tool that spends all his time on the cell phone instead of picking up clearances or running through his pre-flight duties. Then he preaches about how he's hoping to upgrade, but can't find the freakin' departure in the pubs, even though it's right there...
