!LOL! Sounds like a farside cartoon I saw years ago. Does anyone remember a story of a captain at National Airlines, back in the 70's, who wanted to fly his 727 between the trade center towers (full of pax) and the F/O & S/O had to literally fight the captain for the controls? I don't know details but I remember my father telling me such a story when he flew for National.
Dood, if you think having a captain with a sweat problem is bad, try having a student who farts everytime he gets nervous; which is 90% of the time. I keep the window open and the cabin air blasting everytime I fly with him. He eats Thai food so just imagine.
