yeah..i miss 'the club'. all of my friends who didn't fly were rather envious of all of the exotic locales to which i flew. of course the reality is that all too often, especially with the time spent in air ambo, we never leave the airport boundary..are lucky to get a cup of joe while making sure we have prist, proper fuel load, w&b done, flight plan filed, coordinated with dispatch..determined what 'sqwawks' we could live with and which we couldn't (right) before buttoning up, giving the standard passenger briefing and turning to my foreign co-pilot (paying to work, btw, but being 'worked' on the certificate in the gray areas of part 135/91) for a crew briefing and blasting off, flying so many hours, to land for another '10 hours of rest' before that goddamn pager goes off again and the cycle starts back up again..out for 2 weeks straight. but damn, i miss it!

in my 'cargo days' flying the 20 and 30 series out of detroit or el paso, but mostly old 20's...we even had lr-23 serial numbers 9 and 16!

Translation for the rest of us:

Joe, landed Scottsdale (SDL) from Maui at sunset last night; was gone 20 minutes later. Was a small chance that we were gonna Remain OverNight (RON), but we were told to Return To Base (RTB). Friday back to Aspen, then from there to Antigua on Sunday for a week.

Or something close to this

12own911 03-29-2006 09:24 AM

OK... now it makes sense... dumb blonde... That is what i am usually.

singpilot 03-29-2006 09:30 AM

Sorry guys and gals. I get started and can't stop.

Kim, really sorry we missed (again) up in my town. Anytime you want a ride somewhere, I have lots'o bikes, or even a big sailboat at King Harbor.

I know I do, cuz I saw it twice in the last week as I flew overhead.

Michael.

Hmmmmm. Is this like discovering original blue paint under the trunk carpet of your Guards Red 911?



OK, OK, I know there are going to be lots of analogies now. Yes, I should have made sure the curtains and the carpet matched before I bought it, but really guys.. how many of you discovered a mismatch, and never really gave a damn?

red-beard 03-29-2006 10:01 AM

What if there is no carpet to compare?

actually it would be like finding "Yellow" paint under the guards red. Or really more Aubergine...

Jim Richards 03-29-2006 10:12 AM

Yeah, Aubergine. :D

12own911 03-29-2006 10:18 AM

So what you guys are stating is that I have yellow carpet and aubergine top paint? What if I have no carpet? What does that mean? Carpet removed for speed... :D

red-beard 03-29-2006 10:23 AM

Mmmm. Carpet less.

I go to places, like today.. HOU,ATL,GSP,ATL,AVP, and tomorrow, AVP,ATL,XNA,ATL,BQK and Friday BQK,ATL,BWI,JFK,ATL. WooHoo.......(hard to type in sarcasm!)

12own911 03-29-2006 10:33 AM

and I work a block and one half from LAX... some fun now...

5axis 03-29-2006 06:08 PM

Judging from the pics it looks like a great time was had by all. I was so close (actually only a few blocks away) but tied up with something.

I will try to join the pelican fun next time.
