"Hi, female. Come in and take the influence off. It's scorching outside today."
"Hey, possibly I'm an one-time goat but I still be aware of how to compliment a lovely looking gal. . ? I am Four Johns Johnson -- content to meet you . ."
"No, no, lady, we only have the usual two johns in this prevent. It's my import, has been for being. Take a peek at the photo on the barrier, right there. See that, a 767 coming into the access ramp at Gate Tango-2 at O'Hare, with the firecrew wetting the flat down? Twenty two days on a flight deck and that was the day it ended. But see those four guys standing out in the spray each land up a toilet seat lid over his cranium and laughing vigorous to bust? Yeah, even if I around it myself I was a legend in the matter."

"You aspire to hear the article? . ."
"You're a lawyer? But even so, this might shock you.?"
"Well, if you're guaranteed you're game you'd superior tell me your name -- hey, I'm a rhymester . . !"
"OK, Gloria, I'll ascertain you what happened, and it was a while previously now. I'm conversation prehistory here. Before deregulation, before 9/11, Divinity, almost before computers on the voyage deck In those astonishing days we had public called flight engineers up front with us and we had these other group called stewardesses out back to peek after the passengers. Not voyage attendants or customer service consultants or whatever the misery they're called now. We had stewardesses, and they had a examination life of about two being, by which period they were either pregnant, or engaged, or both. As in 'what's on your menu tonight? Mandy or the another blonde? . . "
"I can see you pulling a countenance at me, Gloria. You wish for to put me on the park and make me confess to being a disgusting long-standing maleist, right? Well, that was the line of attack the job was then. God, they were wonderful times. But I'll caution you this, never, never march away with the purpose that we pilots didn't respect those gals back there in the log cabin. We did then and we still do, even if a fate of them are guys now. That doesn't count, what does matter is that if the shit ever hits the fan it's the log cabin crew who have to take control of hundreds of panic stricken passengers and get them off the jet safely. Rum and coke again . . ? I'd rather have been a trash collector than transact business with airline passengers every time, especially when it comes to being protected in the same cottage as the preposterous bastards. And, spaced out from the passengers, the stews had all kinds of other tribulations to deal with that you'd never believe of. Have you ever tried cooking eggs at 40,000 feet, Gloria? If you do, you'll find they focus green. Anyway, that was the manner things were when I was conservational myself, a green young co-pilot living way up there in pilot's heaven. And then God blew his whistle and told each person to get out of the swimming pool. Suddenly it was paradise preoccupied . . . "
"God, is that daughter on that go into wearing a costume or not? Sure as hell isn't my eyesight available because I can see every indentation where she isn't . . ."
"What went iniquitous? What happened? No disregard, Gloria, but lawyers happened, that's what. Come the 1970's and unexpectedly the airlines were being in use to court by girls who'd been put off because they were superfluity, or married or whatever. Before slow we had married running away attendants with kids for God's sake, functioning mothers on burgundy eye flights whose purpose of fun was getting back home in instance for an hour in twin bed before cooking the personal breakfast. . ."
"What's a slam-clicker? She's a delightful looking woman in her thirties with a wedding appearance who brings the russet up to the voyage deck, lays on all the smiles and moves to the pilots, goes to the crew inn with you, says "Goodnight, guys, finicky to fly with you," slams her door shut and the next gadget you hear is the door lock clicking. That's a slam-clicker."
"OK, so now comes the three day of the week working trip when I get legendary -- or perhaps infamous. So I'm dreaming of how I'm going to retire in a year or so and own a bar in the tropics and expend my time conversation to beautiful lawyers . . ."
"You believe I'm being persuasive now? Wait until you understand the story. . ."
"Listen in, then, and I'll caution you. I walked into the set flight center, signed my liberation, then pulled down all my voyage details off the computer. Well, that was something, anyway. Never any snow, rarely any shower: the wind can get tricky sometimes, but not often.
"Then, as I was leaving the flight meeting point, I took a glance at the whiteboard on the envelop which had probability and ends of set information on it. One of the notations was that Mr Greenmont, the company chief security detective was going to be in Tucson on the same day of the week that I'm hasty down. I double up checked the mass, but no mention of Greenmont's name. So if he was scheduled for Tucson, how was he vacant to get there? And I knew the only other voyage W&W had vacant to Tucson that calendar day was a hours of darkness shuttle which had deceased out about 1 PM. So either this gentleman was on my voyage and I wasn't being told about it, which was extraordinary; or Greenmont had slipped off to Tucson well before the crock crowed. Which was even stranger. Airline executives, even trivial times one, don't as a rule travel on rocket flights.
