 |  "I wanna be a RJ Driver" Song
Got this off another website thought it was kinda funny. **To the tune of Rockstar by Nickelback** (If you dont know the Nickelback song this wont be nearly as funny.) ---------------------------------------- I’m through with waiting in line to take off runway ten Sitting next to a student that stinks like gin This job hasn’t turned out quite the way I want it to be I want a brand new jet that I can learn in the sim And a crashpad I can play Tetris in And a king size case that’ll carry all my charts for me I’ll need a Sallie Mae loan that’s got no limit And a nine leg day with no lunch break in it Gonna raid the galley cart so I can just get some food in me I want a dark crew bus with no suspension Ride with a dozen other pilots who don’t have pensions To some cheap hotel where the mattress smells like pee I’m gonna trade this life for flying a plane Might even wear sunglasses and frost my mane Cuz we all just wanna be airline stars Live in slum flop houses driving old junk cars The girls run screaming but my callsign’s sweet We’ll all stay skinny cuz we just can’t eat And we’ll get kicked out of the hotel bar Eating ramen bricks and a candy bar Every flight attendant’s gonna think I’m square Every Ipod wearer with the frost-tipped hair Hey hey I wanna fly an RJ Hey hey I wanna fly an RJ I wanna bid each month and try to hold a line Get stuck on reserve every single time Commute 19 hours so I can live with my parents for free I’m gonna dress up in the latest Sporty’s fashion I’m running low on socks so I’d better ration Gonna work on holidays and never have a weekend free I’m gonna trade this life for flying a plane Might even wear sunglasses and frost my mane Cuz we all just wanna be airline stars Live in slum flop houses driving old junk cars The girls run screaming but my callsign’s sweet We’ll all stay skinny cuz we just can’t eat And we’ll get kicked out of the hotel bar Eating ramen bricks and a candy bar Every flight attendant’s gonna think I’m square Every Ipod wearer with the frost-tipped hair And we’ll hide out from the FAA With the latest regulations and a 110A They’ll take away your cert with that evil smile Everybody’s got an ALPA rep on speed dial Hey hey I wanna fly an RJ Gonna shoot an ILS and pray for FD capture Gonna get bent over by some dispatcher Get stuck in an arrival sequence 12 planes long Let the autopilot fly so I don’t get it wrong Cuz we all just wanna be airline stars Live in slum flop houses driving old junk cars The girls run screaming but my callsign’s sweet We’ll all stay skinny cuz we just can’t eat And we’ll get kicked out of the hotel bar Eating ramen bricks and a candy bar Every flight attendant’s gonna think I’m square Every Ipod wearer with the frost-tipped hair And we’ll hide out from the FAA With the latest regulations and a 110A They’ll take away your cert with that evil smile Everybody’s got an ALPA rep on speed dial Hey hey I wanna fly an RJ Hey hey I wanna fly an RJ |

Dude, someone should actually record this - then everyone could film themselves singing along. You'd have one hell of a funny video if you put them altogether. Sorta like this guy ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uSlqI1AVUk

I'd hate to give up my nap, two meals and a minimum 24 hour layover in a European city! |

Yeah, Dad loves the international stuff. Plus its the only thing that is commutable in EWR. Now that he is a CA and junior, he gets to visit all those cities that he hasn't been to before. Open time was nice to him this month though. Traded a Belfast Northern Ireland trip for an Athens. Both the FOs on the ATH trip are WAY senior to him. The difference in pay between those trips is about what a regional FO makes in a MONTH If I do the flying thing, I definitely want to do the international flying.

I'm still debating holding for ER captain, which isn't all that far off, or bidding back domestic captain after my lock is up. Not quite sure what to do yet  |

He waited until he could be a lineholder 756 CA. FWIW.

Now do one called 'Bus Drivers In the Sky' to Johnny Cash's Ghostriders In The Sky. "The VCM is out again, their shirts are soaked with sweat... They're ridin' hard to get on time.. but this crew ain't made it yet..."

He told me to report to the chief pilot's office for failure to cover a trip. I told him I was leaving for Southernjets. He asked if they were hiring crew schedulers. (insert Chris Hansen "HA!" here) | |

No, wait, I did do a little bit of GA flying in 1999. Maybe 5 hours or so.
