I like flying but i always get destroyed before i take flight, so i can pass out on the plane....

the worst was when i was on the way back from spring break, i took three 'totem poles' (zanax) ....last thing i remember was jumping out the car to go into the airport (Sat night) ...then i woke up in bed at home with class that morning (Mon. morning) ...the crazy part was thinking ...damn i remember having a transfer in Atlanta and everytime i go to atl, i know i have to take a airport subway of sorts...how did i manage to swing that ? lol ....ahhhhh college.

You're an animal, that's insane.

Alex, if you really knew what the hell happened behind the scenes with flying you would be terrified. Well, anyone would really...unless you totally blocked out the actual likelihood of mishaps. You don't hear about mishaps every day but they happen EVERY DAY. In multiple parts of the country/world.

I had ZERO fear of flying before I became an air traffic controller. Now? Oh God I hate it. I've seen more mishaps, crashes, planes sliding off runways, and DAILY emergencies I can count.

[Camel Jockey]

Sipping a drink while flying and reading a nice book or article is awesome. The heavy air conditioning usually makes me sleep well too. 

[onlyme]

When I used to fly alot I would always think about what i would do as the plane was going down.  I always tried to find the hottest girl on the plane and imagine me fucking her while the plane went down.  Yes kind of weird but back then I was weird.

agree thats why I think I have developed claustrophobia as I have gotten older not because its genetic but because I have lost trust in people and
stopped believing that everyone is an expert and that things are taken care of.... People are incompetent including pilots and air plane mechanics.

Once we were on a plane that was pulling out of the gate in Atlanta and we hit a luggage cart

[Meso_z]

Flew in from SAN to PDX earlier today...

I get to Alaska's counter to get first class upgrade.. nice, spot available; this should be short and sweet, hope they have spicy tomato this time, I like my bloody marrys spicy.

As I sit down and put my headset on, I notice that nervous sweating tool sitting next to me.. as we leave the tarmac, the tool starts hyper ventilating and ringing for an attendant. She shows up and he's already in full blown panic attack mode. Some old lady chimes in and says she has xanax. The tool pops one, turns around  to me and says something like: "talk to me man"... then he grabs my arm.. gayer than squatting on a lubed cucumber....

the tool survived and gave me his business card. I'm now debating if I should internetize it or not.


Discuss.

HAHAHAHA

[Ursus]

you should have slapped them right away you fucking pussy!

" I said to myself" bla bla bla bunch of excuses, you wouldnt have done nothing. I fucking hate it when people talk like that.

I should slap you for having the audacity to call me a pussy

Once we were on a plane that was pulling out of the gate in Atlanta and we hit a luggage cart

We just landed at Miami and was at the gate and people stood up before they announced we could and all of a sudden the plane shook really bad and knocked over a bunch of people.  It lasted maybe 20 seconds or so.  Several big thuds against the side of the plane too.  It ended up that the A/C was too close to the plane and the hose they use got sucked up by one of the engines and it destroyed the engine which was lucky it didn't blow up and it shot the nozzle out the back end right into another truck.  I mean the plane was shaking really bad and people screaming.  It ended up we had to stay on the plane for a couple hours.  It was pretty intense especially since we had landed and were on the ground.  this was back around 1988 or so

[kh300]

what is your experience with the airplane restrooms?  Do you time meals to avoid crapping in them?  Do they always smell bad?  or are they fairly upscale?  I haven't flown in years, and the only view I've had of them involve porn clips.

well i have to inspect them every flight i go on, weather i use the toilet or not. they are always clean, unless of course someone blows its up -no pun inteaded..

[kh300]

if you are afraid of flying there is nothing to be ashamed of.. unless your a fucking retard you know driving is 100x's more dangerous.. the only reason why you dont like to fly is because your not in control.. any honest man can relate to that..

[tbombz]

so are you going to post flexingtons business card or not ? 

[onlyme]

1)  why the fuck would they make you stay on the plane for hours??  How much sense does that make?

2)  congratulations on telling a story from the 80's that doesn't involve celebrities and sports cars! 

No celebrities on the plane.  And I have no idea except that they took alot of statements from people.  When I got into the terminal I looked at the plane and it fucked up on the side and their were metals parts all over the ground.  I did get my leather Tumi garmet bag stolen does that count as something

[Disgusted]

I saw a 16year old girl trapped under a bus yesterday in town. I still cant stop thinking about it. Poor girl died last night. Was on the news.

Some fucking Japs beside me whipped out their iphone and took a pic. I said to myself if they do it again i swear to god i am slapping one of them. Sick and disrespectful

In Belfast?

[tu_holmes]

That guy was ridiculous...

I guess he doesn't have a frequent flyer card.

hahah yes the train between the terminals can be brutal... doing that in radar mode is quite an exploit.

hahaha remembers me of a good story.

2 years ago I went to San Andres, it's a 7 hours flight from montreal.
After about 30 minutes in the air, my girlfriend at the time started getting nervous and hyper-ventilating until the stewart came with his oxygene thing.

30 minutes, she start hyper-ventlating again and for whatever reasons, she decide to go to the toilets.
she lost concience in the alley and i was like (daaaaaaamn fucking attention whore..). The stewart comes again and while he was taking care of her, a group of 4 girls started to talk to me because they recognized me from a party I went to a week earlier. they were fucking hot.

when my girlfriend woke up, she saw me laughing and telling stories to the 4 girls and she was pissed off the whole vacations
