You never can tell when you wake up and put your feet on the floor how your day will turn out. At three o’clock in the morning, during the window of circadian low, the chances of having any insight is quite literally zero; for a pilot this is very regularly the case. Coffee, and a cold shower, always seems to help, but the truth is … Continue reading A Bridge Too Far?
It’s a new year and it’s a new me! Well, that’s what I’m trying to convince myself of as I sit here bored off my tits at 35’000 feet. I definitely consumed too much food and drink over Christmas and I am severely bloated as a result. My uniform pants are feeling way tighter than they should and I’m starting to wish I caught the … Continue reading New Year, New Me?
For some reason Craig has a Samsung Galaxy Note 7 “phablet” and he is yet to send it back to be fixed. Effectively he has a WMD in his pants that were it to explode would blow his dick off. Obviously he would have to fit it into his front pocket first, but the threat remains. He’s not allowed have it on the airplane which … Continue reading New York Hot Pocket
Making my way to Head Office to discuss my inappropriate use of the fire test system inflight proved to be a shittier day than I had expected. They basically read me the riot act. In honesty, I feel that’s a little harsh but I couldn’t defend it as a revenge project because that would be pretty unprofessional. Thankfully they’re letting me stay on the … Continue reading Go Pro No-No
I’m back in the real now world and I’ve got a few days off to ponder the email I’ve received regarding my inflight actions on the way back from Rio. It appears the other pilot may have decided my actions were a little stupid and reported me for it. I’ve got to admit I probably should not have done it but unless they fire … Continue reading Netflix and Chill?
A week before the Rio trip I check my roster and I’m flying with a pretty decent crew. I get onto them straight away, and I’m making sure they know I’m trying to score one of the cabin crew girls. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to fly with her for months after it got exceptionally flirtatious on a trip to New York. We … Continue reading Caipirihnas & Speedos
It has been a long week and I do not mean that in a good way. I had to go to the doctor with some major medical concerns. Now I don’t mind the doctors all that much but my concerns were real and you know some things you just have to take seriously. I’m heading to Rio tomorrow for a few nights – you … Continue reading Zika May Cause Embarrassment
Wake up early and let the sun fill my eyes as the automatic curtains open and allow Mother Nature invade my senses. As soon as it hits me I’m out of bed and into the kitchen to consume a glass of lemon water and then I hit the yoga mat. Meditation is key to every morning, allowing me to fill myself with gratitude and reflect … Continue reading Sushi beats Sausages
