Valley 06 (141) (2).JPG I don't know about you, but one of my favorite movies is Airplane, and I just crack up over the scene where the ground crew is wiping the cockpit windows and lifting the nose radome to check the dripstick.  Well, one of our great Customers, Shar Lira, took this photo on June 21 in Phoenix of one of our Captains, who suspiciously looks like our fellow blogger, Ray Stark. Anyway, here's a chance to use your creativity and post a caption for this photo.  (Click on the photo to enlarge.) Of course, we LUV funny! And have a great Fourth of July!

"Do you think the passengers will feel better if they think I look out this window?" "Nope, that smudge is on the inside after all." "Step 1: Clean the windshield. Step 2: Buckle Up. Step 3: Refer to step one."

Hey, the comments and "read the rest of the story" links aren't working on the 7-6 entry. Thus, I am going to leave my comment here... If you want to know what a typical day is like in the life of a DYSFUNCTIONAL flight attendant (at Anonymous International Airlines), see here: http://queenofsky.journalspace.com/?cmd=displaycomments&dcid=806&entryid=806

I LUV this plane SO much! ATC is getting really nit-picky about visibility requirements! These last-minute installations are NOT my idea of getting out quickly. These last-minute installations are murder on my back. Wait! Hold the plane! Don't leave yet! I'm the pilot and I've to got to fly it!

Ya' know, I'm all for RHIP... but I will never do this to my junior officers when I'm Captian! What's next? Cleaning the latrines with my toothbrush?? Feels like I'm back in boot camp!

When they said we were having a party at the end of this leg, I didn't think they meant a "GI Party" I gotta pay better attention at those morning preflight briefings so I don't get "volunteered" again
