Any of you Baws on this one. Was supposed to take off an hour and a half ago. They had to replace the cone. Captain says “won’t take too long to replace cone, let’s go ahead and board this f-cking plane”. That was over an hour ago. Still sitting on the ground.

You pilot Baws know what might have motivated them to board this plane sans a functioning cone? Why not wait until cone is completely installed to board?

You are about to get going. Chill out plebe.

I’m your captain up front. We had to make sure we had road beers stocked.

Plane 2 left gate. Heading down runway. Now, we are turning back. Headed back to the gate. They need to re-check the luggage.

True story.

How many people on the flight?

3 passengers and 2 crew in a little Sandpiper.

Just wait until that Amtrak train opens between Mobile and New Orleans. It will be 10 Amtrak workers to 5 passengers after newness wears off. Hopefully as a tax payer, I am wrong and the train is wildly successful.

For curiosity sake, I may take the train this summer.

Because then it is quicker to leave. You people don't understand how to board a fricking plane and will bitch the entire time at the staff that had NOTHING to do with the delay instead of hurrying onto the plane....getting seat belted in and stfu.....

Enjoy your fricking pretzels be quiet.
