    Wait, she was sending them to Captain Ken and she's been on this pilot's flights many times. NOW we know why that other flight attendant was being anti-social. She set her phone up for that flight to be Captain Ken because she knew something would eventually happen, and SHE was the one sitting there downloading all the photos. The question is, when is she going to blackmail Kim?

    I don’t remember the exact circumstances or the events that lead to this, but when we’d deploy, the pilot the crew and the mechanics would fly with us when we’d deploy. I guess the copilot just received qualifications, or wings, or whatever, but the result was that the mechanics swapped his seat out on the flight deck with a toddler’s high-chair from the hotel restaurant. So after all the briefings the crew had their ceremony of presenting the copilot with his “special chair.” Good laughs all around, and memorable photos.

    As a techie, I was once asked by ambulance crew if I can remove locks without an angly grinder once (I'm was out on fieldwork with a van in the middle of nowhere). I told them I had several options and flowed then to a farm. Inside of the barn was a woman in her 50's on a bdsm attached with loads of padlocks and steel shackles and a guy still looking flabbergasted at a broken key🤣 . The locks where ali express quality so a big screwdriver opened all of them, but your attendant had it easy compared to there red faces🤣

      @@johnopalko5223 Moved to Costa Rica, living here coming up on five years now. Started writing a book about the experience and doing CZcams videos about it. What to do, what not to do. We did a lot of things right, and only a few things wrong, one of them was huge and ended up with us losing 2/3s of our household goods. Everyone here has stories about the move. I am complying the advice.
      Then the dang pandemic happened and so many things here have changed and change again every few weeks, throwing my book into flux again.
      Then a beauty YTer named Tati Westbrook sued someone I trained as a writer at Patheos for defamation, and I had to give a deposition. It's spun into six trials for defamation and now my YT channel is a pit of crazy online drama connected to the defamation trials. Thank the heavens I am not being sued as they are multi million dollar law suits. I hope soon to go back to just talking exclusively about CR.

    For once. There’s one that Kelsey is involved in. Because I only know of a small group of CZcams channels on Commercial aviation. I know of a handful that show their face, and know of exactly one who flies the 747.

    Wait a second I had a similar experience with a FA named Kim. I was a ramper and this FA told me that she was coming back in a few days. A few days later she came back but I didn't recognize her because she had different hair and makeup, keep in mind I see tons of flight attendants on a day to day basis and she was upset that I didn't recognize her😂
    p.s I'm pretty sure these are two different flight attendants but the similarities are hilarious

    • @christking85
      @christking85 Před 2 lety

      So we are supposed to believe that a flight attendant was fascinated with a ramper who makes between 10 16 bucks an hour. The story sounds fake. different hair and make up? did she change her voice and mannerisms too? People change hair color/shape and make up all the time. Even in your made up story the only similarities are the name kim, being a flight attendant, and a woman. Not hilarious. Between your story and you name, it looks like you crave attention. Ramper J , Jizzy J Ramper, anything but you used aviator. I could be wrong but I would imagine most people think of pilots when they hear aviator. You know that. Makes me wonder why you used it.....
