Flight,

Something for the GIF's.

Subject PIlot wisdom.............................

Asking what a pilot thinks about the FAA is like asking a fireplug what
it thinks about dogs.

The only thing worse than a captain who never flew as a copilot is a
copilot who once was a captain.

Or, two flight managers giving each other a check ride.

Hand-flying an ILS in a gusty crosswind is easier than adjusting the shower
controls in a layover hotel.

A smooth touchdown in a simulator is as exciting as kissing your own sister.

Everything is accomplished through teamwork until something goes
wrong....then one pilot gets all the blame.

A good simulator check ride is like successful surgery on a cadaver.

Standard checklist practice requires pilots to read to each other
procedures used every day ...and recite from memory those needed once every
five years.

An FAA investigation is conducted by non-flying experts who take six months
to itemize the mistakes made by a crew that had six seconds to do anything.

In the old days flying was dangerous and sex was safe.
