Well congrats...and thanks for the service. Are you now CSAR in AK? There's days I miss it...but days I enjoy not running a 5-6 hour brief/fly/debrief sequence too. Good luck!

I was going to ask the same question, I don't remember us hiring any Viper guys recently.

No, I'm a Long Island boy, heading back to NY. If ANC CA upgrade comes way down and I ever get the bug to live in AK, I guess it could be an option down the road.

Still attached to DC right now, so I'll pass the words as promised.

Are you going to hercs or helos? You'll enjoy that unit either way, great dudes.

Sorry for the derail. Don't see too many CSAR guys on here.

There are many nicer places in ANC, no need to get down with the criminals.
Guess that rules out drinking with Jungle!

Here's a link to the local Better Business Bureau complaints section; perhaps everyone with a gripe should start flooding in a complaint as well.

Then his pilot buddies and all the MTV types start a big brawl.

Some pilot goes too far and ends up with an aggravated assault conviction. This will cost him his SIDA badge and his job thanks to the TSA laws.
There you go again with those negative waves Moriarity!

After reading my story and some others on here, do I really need to DEMAND anything for you to not patronize the place again? Should we set up a leather jacket patrol out front? The kid that start all this will most likely be prosecuted and by reading this thread it should cost Danny several thousand dollars in lost business, especially since it appears he isn't going to change anything after our conversation. I did my best in getting the truth out for all to read. As far as I am concerned, if you've read this thread and still go there, you can't say we didn't try to warn you...What else do you want from me?
Just one last question...Do these F Street folks just attack pilots that read the cargo section of APC Forums? Was your pal "checked" because he's a pilot? And, you were slapped for fthe same reason?

OK. That was more than 1. Sorry.

Please, don't get me wrong...I do appreciate your heads up, on this situation, the follow-up report from your meeting with Danny. And, I'm glad that the "Hockey kid- Car fixer" is going to be reported to the police. But, the other culprit, and everyone else involved from the F street, must feel vindicated by your lack of action, towards them.

Of course, what do I care about a bunch of friggin' non APC readers and Asian tourists, anyway. To them, a good punch in the face, in a saloon, will just make for a better story of the American Wild Wild West.

Almost 15,000 views in just 3 days. That's a lot of Alaskan Amber and nightly specials that will not be consumed anymore at F st. Did we ever establish which waitress slapped you? One of them has a Mom that works at the ANC ramp. I hope it wasn't her, she's kinda cute! Dark hair, light hair, tall, short, curvy or concave? Enquiring minds want to know!
