Rules and regs make no sense sometimes. At the bottom of the report, it is legal to take 4 books of matches onto an aircraft.....But it only takes one match to light the fuse.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

If I'd been the perpetrator of such as dastardly deed.... ;)....they would have taken me off the plane on a stretcher while LMAO! Bet that person makes it into the farters hall of fame.... ;D

One of my life's fondest ambitions is to fart in a crowed elevator and try to keep a straight face....lmao. Problem is, even if someone else did the dirty deed. They'd figure it was me from the fact I'd be LMAO!  ;D

Yes. But it is illegal to take dynamite onboard. So it all balances out nicely. ;D

Nope, an ex-Army buddy of mine actually pulled one off. He said it was as loud and obnoxious as any he'd ever done in his life. He said that many people started gagging and he had to exercise super human effort to keep a straight face. He did ok until someone pulled out some Glade Air Freshener (out of a pocket book). Apparently it was Glade Evergreen. Some old lady standing right next to him said, "Oh great, now it smells like someone $hit on a Christmas Tree"! That's what did him in, he started laughing his ass off.... ;D

The only reason I believed his story is that his girl friend and young son were with him and verified the story as true. Ex-Military types do have a pension for BS'ing people badly and tend to exaggerate sometimes...lmao. His son said, "Yep, it was daddy, I recognized the sound and the stink"! Poor little guy was right in the line of fire.  :o

:D

I have not managed that yet, but a little while ago, my company sent me on an aircraft maintence type rating. In the hotel I managed to "entertain" a couple of co-workers in the life just before we got off. An elderly couple then got into the lift and promptly got out again. I was quite proud of that one.
