Hey, if he wants to bring a Fleshlight on his walkarounds, that's his business.

.....oh, he's talking about taking a Flashlight? Well that's just silly.

I bet you're just a peach to be on a 4 day with.

Never in my career have I seen anyone at any carrier use a flashlight on an daytime walk around. But I haven't been to Juno either...

Never? Well now you have. See you're never too old to learn something. You're welcome.

FYP. I guess you're "never too old to learn something" either?

I'm ready. Show me your most clever and arrogant. Or maybe just shut up and show me a little courtesy.

The key question here is which pilot group, DAL or SWA, demonstrates hubris most effectively? Way back in 2006 when DAL was in bankruptcy and the Sub Skippers lost their pensions they weren't so high and mighty.

Short memories, I guess.

Ah, the standard answer when you have nothing to counter with. Well played, Sir.

Hey, what's a virile young stud like me supposed to do on those 32 hour Jackson Mississippi layovers? It gets lonely out on the road.

We all screw up, as in: bust an altitude, go-around from a cruddy approach, or accidentally take a plane with an expired MEL? OK, I'll buy that.

But I'd put being a habitual liar (his Facebook page contained even more lies, such as being a Southwest pilot) right up there as an absolute disregard for his profession.

We went over this years ago... This wasn't just some regional puke in the hotel bar trying to get into some girl's pants. This clown volunteered to go national with his lies and fabrications. He wanted to be a shooting star and burned up in a wonderfully tragic and public fashion.

That's why we won't let it go. Let him be an example.
