I guess that's why Pilotguy now spends his time in spaceship cockpits ;)


Astronauts? Ah, the stories I could tell about THOSE guys. Never met one, but I could go on for hours about THOSE guys.

I've tried to compose a nice, polite response but the best I can come up with is that you are simply full of crap. I'm not complaining, mind you, but simply stating a fact.

btw, what constitutes "a lot" of time in cockpits? Doing what? Nobody spends "a lot" of time in airline cockpits unless they are airline pilots.


hey man i think you might want to reconsider your stance here,LMAO.Ol pilot guy might know a thing or two about aviation,he had a hand in this.

I never judged him on anything other than his innacurate portrayal of airline pilots. Reconsider my stance? Nah. Bs is bs.
Apples and oranges. Big fail, Noman. You gotta do better than that. I expect better/smarter/faster from the likes of you. You gotta get your head back in the game. You are starstruck.

This thread is a about bashing one individual SWest pilot who was caught gay-bashing.And this pencil protector wearing slide rule techno dweeb decides to start bashing ALL airline pilots which is very very unfair as we are so lovable.
Wait,i think i just bashed pencil protector wearing dweebs...bashing is a slippery slope.
But i like his job,wish he didn't hate us so much...snif!.

Geez, the guy has a motor mouth full of complaints. Probably a habitual complainer when he's not working.


In my previous job I spent a lot of time in commercial jet cockpits listening to the pilots, and unfortunately most of them seem to think that they're primary job is to b**** and complain about everything under the sun. This Southwest guy ranting about gays seems especially bigoted, but non-stop complaints are the norm for airline pilots.


The SWA pilot isn't the only bigot represented in this post.

Wow, apparently lots of panties got twisted on this one. I couldn’t decide which reply to post, so I’ll post them both.

Version 1:

Jesus tap dancing Christ, calm down everyone. I apologize for saying such terrible, unconscionable, and offensive things about airline pilots. I have encountered the nice guys that love their jobs, including some that I’ve met via hang gliding. Had I known how easily offended our commercial compatriots are, I would have kept it to myself, or at least posted it under noman’s name. Sorry to those that I have offended. What I meant to say was that most commercial airline pilots are the bravest and handsomest group of men I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with, and without them we’d still be walking everywhere (or riding on UAVs). Please don’t declare Sky Law on me.

Version 2:

Jesus tap dancing Christ, calm down everyone. For those of you that care, I meant to add that commercial pilots are also ugly and they all fly paragliders. Stir the pot

Sincerely,
Pencil Pushing Dweeb

OK, if we can do a group hug I will get you onboard. But be prepared, you've never heard a bunch of complainers like spaceship pilots, boy howdy. Laughing

Also, just to be clear, we use triple strength duct tape whenever possible.
