The survival of everyone on board depends on just one thing: finding someone on board who can not only fly this plane, but who didn't have fish for dinner.

Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different then riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

That never, ever gets old. The co-pilots' turning to Jello! Have to be 45± to appreciate the humor I guess.

but i did stay at a holiday inn express last night.

and for those of you in the know, "this is an entirely different type of aircraft all together".

It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether.

Striker: "It's a good thing he doesn't know how much I hate his guts"

“How long until you can land this plane?”

“I can’t say.”

“You can tell me, I’m a doctor.”

“I don’t know... two hours?”

“You... can’t tell me for two hours?”

Love the comments! I need to re-watch the movie :)

Glad there was someone to help!
chicorico70
Very glad this guy was there, but...
Was there a copilot? Why couldn't the copilot land the plane?
krispykreme
Either you 1) didn’t read or comprehend the article, or 2) don’t know that ‘first officer’ = ‘copilot.’
chicorico70
You are correct. I didn't know that first officer = copilot. Thanks for the clarification.

Nighty night, sleep tight - make sure all those toys are put away properly! Really - I thought the FlightAware blogs were a bit more sophisticated than this....
williambaker08
They are. This is just a post we were having a little fun on thats all. Doesn’t happen to often.
fredljon
Thanks for that - I didn't intend to be a party pooper!
spammyh
Pardon, but do you know anyone who speaks jive?

Do you like gladiator movies?
krispykreme
LOL! Either 1) Not a professional pilot, or 2) THAT guy.

My last F/O and I were quoting Jerky Boys lines. GET BRETT WIER I SAID!!!!!! You gotta have fun on those 14 hour days and your 1587th trip to NJ.

Yes you do. Airline crews need to have a sense of humor. It helps you cope. 99 percent of them know when to turn the humor on or off. This applies to other professions as well.
scott8733
Maybe we're just blowing off steam. Given the volume of politically motivated postings that bait everyone,it's refreshing to have a nice story of success that we can have a few laughs with.

All right class, enough of this frivolity Everybody go back to your desks. We have a lot of work to do this afternoon. Who wants to be the first to give their report on the history of algebra.

So sorry for you....
Airplane is the ultimate aviation-lovers movie.

radkins92
Good Fun Movie,
And don't call me Shirley
xtoler
It's one of my favorites. I was just commemting on the poster who didn't find the humor.
xtoler
I've had the movie downloaded on my phone. When I was flying, that movie was a requirement.
