A note to this pilot: As an extremely nervous flyer, I would just like to express my appreciation and gratitude for you and your sense of humor. It makes such a difference in having a more relaxed flight. :D xoxo yay. Way to be a fantastic pilot.
Before the star wars parody announcement, he would advertise "frequent flusher memberships, which allowed you to use the lav with a discounted rate of a dollar per flush". Funny dude!
was on a flight today, the pilot was like "well folks, we used ludicrous speed and got here much quicker than scheduled. thank you for flying with us"
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yeah, sorry but when I fly I expect nothing but professionalism from the flight crew. If this schmuck was flying my plane, I would be writing a nasty memo to the board and company
The best thing about this guy, if we had some less than pleasant fligth attendants, they never got to be lovely star wars characters. They were always yoda, chewy and r2d2
@KrogerKing I most certainly did. I had 2 or 3 4 day trips with this guy. He is an excellent captain and a professional pilot. The entire crew enjoyed working with him and he always put a smile on passenger's faces. Plus I always got to be Solo... so I was happy.
@cavok84 My Aunt works at AirTran. She is a customer service agent as Reservations. I love airplanes and I want to be a pilot. Did the captain say this every time?
SW does funny stuff. I once heard the flight attendant mention during the safety briefing that "This is a non a non smoking cabin but for smokers there's plenty or room outside on the wings."
@trechan lol he takes his ear peices off and he hears. luke is there somthing wrong, no im alright. then the autopoilot goes out and he has to giued it in my touch
Airline management are humorless. This guy was probably sacked after the video was published. Even though it's definately done during preflight with no pax aboard.
All flight announcements should be done so well. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have come out of hyperspace prematurely into an unexpected meteor storm, please ensure you are buckled into your anti-gravity seats and they are in the upright position... we should be clear in no time................. is that a moon?"
That's because it was a special flight for special kids. You know...kids that shit their pants and make those strange noises in the mall and you hear it but don't look but your still disgusted at the shit in the pants thing. Ya...that flight.
passengers must be kinda scared to have a wookie onboard. i know i would.
