The pilot was only trying to make up the loss of pay cuts because of bankruptcy. Can you really blame him?

All S.O.P. at the new NW (which has now descended past "surreal," is in "Fellini-esque" territory).

This kind of stuff usually happens in threes; I wonder what's next?


Maybe the pilot yelling on the cell phone was made at this guy for not delivering the goods? 😛h34r:

Yet another black eye for NW in the media... 🙂

I must admit, this recent showing of bizarre behavior from NW employees reminds me of the "good old days" of weekly emergency landings.

Maybe we should start a new "contest" - instead of picking A/C, station, and type of emergency, we could choose employee classification, station, and type of felony/misdemeanor charge. What do you think?

It would be time for a new round of three, Kev.


We have already been presented with: (1) the lead ESE member of the "mile high club", (2) the pilot on the cell phone, and now (3) this pilot.

Nah, that only works in the NFL and NBA.

I am going for something fun- like the classic "Two timing (fill in Mechanic, Pilot) spouse with two F/A in the Galley" scenario.

Happened twice already (that I know of)- once I was called to the flight to replace one of them.

But will it make it on the 6 o'clock news?

Doesn't the NFL and NBA players make more than pilots? I think so!

If that is the case can you blame the NW pilot? HA!

GO NW PILOTS!

A PR news release is order from the infamous Jennifer Baghdad(e)?

Certainly there are a host of NFL and NBA players whose earnings exceed that of an airline pilot...by millions of dollars.

Consider this reasoning: If you are working at SCABAIR, drugs would make your workplace more tolerable. This reasoning may not address the issue of personal deterioration.

No, but it'll sure make one hell of a raunchy skin flick!

for excitement. I don't think I can do the cubicle thing again with things like this going on!
