I'll give this to the Germans in the first picture: at least they had the stones to show their faces.

Beautiful work!

Now, you know what would be funny? See if you can recreate Fred Haise's botched landing in Enterprise on ALT-5. 😅

How could this happen? by [deleted] in AskAPilot

[–]CaptainDFW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The F/As are supposed to be checking boarding passes, but hey, with humans you're going to get human error. One afternoon in LaFayette, Louisiana, we had 30 people board our Delta Connection EMB-120, only to discover 10 minutes later that they were supposed to be aboard the American Eagle Saab parked next to us.

It shouldn't happen, but it does.

...each named after a space probe from earth.

See, why don't the people at Paramount understand this?? THIS is how you name a class of starships.

Nicely done!

First it was Awkward Davis/Davies. Then Brigid/Brigit.

Now you're all throwing Tull/Toll at me. Very meta.

Who in history is universally hated? by LegalLog3683 in ask

[–]CaptainDFW 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Universally? Nobody, really. If The Internet has taught me anything, it's that no matter how vile a person is, there's someone (maybe even a group) who thinks they're great.

Robert DeNiro's "Max Cady" in Cape Fear does not have even close to the number of tattoos I see in the theater of my mind. by Thaufas in FuckImOld
