Pilots stopped for lunch. Just couldn't stand looking at another plate full of "vanilla french toast" at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

Goose Bay Airport Snack Shop was selling 1 Liter Cups of Coffee for 49 Cents along with 1/2 Pound Buffalo Burgers for 89 Cents. The Pilot only had his Credit Card & also he bought the entire flight coffee and lunch.

Per US Airways.com it says it departed YYR at 2:08PM.

Could this mean that the pilots have a legitimate gripe about the amount of fuel they're allowed to order on trans-Atlantic flights?

No, they get whatever fuel they want. They were upset the company was even questioning them about it.

Could it be an MEL issue that restricts ETOPS - so they had to take the long way home, which, with the payload, required the sto for fuel.

maybe it was a Tuna Burrito backlash?

was Gloria Holtz on board?

Actually I heard the whole crew had an uniform rash breakout, so they were all streaking and the Pilots didn't want to see Gloria Holtz's Pittsburgh size running around so they diverted to GooseBay to pick up some wooly duck outfits, hopefully that Crew will be pitching the wooly duck line around PHL and convince inflight to take up the new materials on the new Gloria Holtz Burgh Collection.

11 replies to this poster's question so far, and almost all of them just silly and immature. Can't someone with some factual information about this diversion just answer this person's question?

 

[SegmentKing]

have you *HAD* the Tuna Burrito?

 

[Dog Wonder]

Sounds like he was cut off.
