At the risk of sharing a Part 135 story in the Major section I humbly nominate Canada's favorite son yet again:

Young, healthy-looking, strapping male passenger moaning and whining about how cold the cabin was. It was comfortable, but by no means, cold. (No one else complained.) He was using a blanket, to boot, but it wasn't enough.
Maybe, just maybe.....if you showed up for your flight wearing more than your Hanes undershirt in the middle of February in the Northeast, you wouldn't be freezing.

Southwest crew departing ROC 2/15/14 at around 5pm local. We were getting deiced and asked for type 4, since it had been snowing for the past 3 hours and it was possible for us getting a lengthy delay going to JFK and our passengers were already delayed. Didn't want to take the chance of having to get deiced again. It Just stopped snowing and they demanded over the radio we "only do type one since there is no precip" and to "actually fly the airplane boys" and not rely on weather reports.
I'll fly my airplane and you fly yours. Last time I checked it was my name on the release next to "CA". Sorry that 5 min of fluid application ruined your day.

Should've asked them about La Guardia, Midway, Burbank, or Branson.
Southwest pilots are great at flying airplanes. Maybe they should add "We only do Type I" to "We don't do go-arounds here" in that section of their briefing.

Hahaha!!! A Southwest pilot telling other pilots how to fly an airplane?

People who live in glass houses shouldn't land at the wrong airport.
I think that's how the saying goes.
