About Good Pilots and Bad Pilots

I've been lucky or smooth, never had anybody mess up the
cockpit. Did have one student who came out to fly and
brought his sister along for the ride, a dual cross-country
from Wichita to Emporia, Marion, Newton and back to Wichita.
About half way to Emporia they both became ill. Seems they
had stopped for hamburgers for lunch and both also were not
feeling well before take-off.
I had plenty (?) of sic-sacks and they used them. When we
got to Emporia we threw the used bags in the trash ands
bought all the sic-sacks they had at the airport, 4 to
restock the airplane. We also took a while to settle down.
But half way to Marion the hamburgers took over again and
shortly they had used all four new bags. Then they still
got ill because of the smell. She dumped the aircraft
paperwork in the seat pocket at my instruction and used the
zip lock portfolio and he used the right hand pocket of his
NEW sports coat.
I, being the superior pilot/CFI with a nose used to
shoveling horse droppings and even some pigs [I was a "pile
it" , before I became an aviator] was able to resist the
need for myself. And the smell is still in my nostrils.

hen I was learning to be a CFI, I asked my friend and
instructor at Spartan (Auggie) how to handle air sick
students and was told that in the Cessna 150-172 airplanes,
open the window and stick their head outside. Never had to
do that.

BTW, that student is now an FAA Inspector

Brings back memories :-)
I've always wondered about those so called $100 hamburger flights. Actually,
for me in the Mustang, or occasionally in the Bearcat, those burgers were a
bit more expensive :-)
If I remember right, most of those airport hamburgers bought at those little
"airport cafe's on the fields were grilled and dripping with grease. Just
the thing to settle the old stomach down for a weekend pilot. Add this to
the stress of a hot cockpit on a summer day and a new pilot getting "just a
little bit lost " on the way home and it's a wonder more people didn't end
up puking in the seat pockets :-))
We had a bevy of line boys who were supposed to take care of things like
that, but it seems to me remembering back now, that every damn time it
happened, I was the only one on the scene to take care of it :-))

I remember reading an article, about Jacques Yves Cousteau
in the National Geographic. There was a mention of a diver
getting sick at about 200 feet below the surface who threw
up into his Aqua-Lung filling both of the hoses that
connected to the regulator. This was before the addition of
check valves in the breathing tubes.

I've had some real good chili and or BBQ at airports in OK
and TX.

I was of course a civilian pilot flying and demonstrating military airplanes
and in some cases doing research on one thing or another flying by
invitation of the Navy and some foreign governments.
My "given" call sign was "Sparrow", but my wife one day at a JC dinner
happened to pass on to a few of the Thunderbirds what the family called me
around the house. I'm afraid I've been "Baron Von Leftover" ever since!

Is that grounds for divorce?

My brother called me El Lardo De Fats when we were kids, now
he's 61 years old, 5'10" and about 250 lbs. while I'm 60
next week, 5'11" and 200 lbs even. Sometimes I use
Capt.Kerosene, sometimes I'm John Galt, most of the time I'm
just Jim Macklin, never Jimmy.

| | | I've always wondered about those so called $100
| hamburger
| | flights. Actually,
| | | for me in the Mustang, or occasionally in the
Bearcat,
| | those burgers were a
| | | bit more expensive :-)
| | | If I remember right, most of those airport
hamburgers
| | bought at those little
| | | "airport cafe's on the fields were grilled and
| dripping
| | with grease. Just
| | | the thing to settle the old stomach down for a
weekend
| | pilot. Add this to
| | | the stress of a hot cockpit on a summer day and a
new
| | pilot getting "just a
| | | little bit lost " on the way home and it's a
wonder
| more
| | people didn't end
| | | up puking in the seat pockets :-))
| | | We had a bevy of line boys who were supposed to
take
| care
| | of things like
| | | that, but it seems to me remembering back now,
that
| every
| | damn time it
| | | happened, I was the only one on the scene to take
care
| of
| | it :-))

| | | I've been lucky or smooth, never had anybody
mess up
| the
| | | cockpit. Did have one student who came out to
fly
| and
| | | brought his sister along for the ride, a dual
| | cross-country
| | | from Wichita to Emporia, Marion, Newton and back
to
| | Wichita.
| | | About half way to Emporia they both became ill.
| Seems
| | they
| | | had stopped for hamburgers for lunch and both
also
| were
| | not
| | | feeling well before take-off.
| | | I had plenty (?) of sic-sacks and they used
them.
| When
| | we
| | | got to Emporia we threw the used bags in the
trash
| ands
| | | bought all the sic-sacks they had at the
airport, 4
| to
| | | restock the airplane. We also took a while to
| settle
| | down.
| | | But half way to Marion the hamburgers took over
| again
| | and
| | | shortly they had used all four new bags. Then
they
| | still
| | | got ill because of the smell. She dumped the
| aircraft
| | | paperwork in the seat pocket at my instruction
and
| used
| | the
| | | zip lock portfolio and he used the right hand
pocket
| of
| | his
| | | NEW sports coat.
| | | I, being the superior pilot/CFI with a nose used
to
| | | shoveling horse droppings and even some pigs [I
was
| a
| | "pile
| | | it" , before I became an aviator] was able to
resist
| the
| | | need for myself. And the smell is still in my
| nostrils.
| | |
| | | hen I was learning to be a CFI, I asked my
friend
| and
| | | instructor at Spartan (Auggie) how to handle air
| sick
| | | students and was told that in the Cessna 150-172
| | airplanes,
| | | open the window and stick their head outside.
Never
| had
| | to
| | | do that.
| | |
| | | BTW, that student is now an FAA Inspector

| | | | big ----- deal, also BFH = big hammer, tfc
too
| cold
| | | |
| | | | The 121 pilots have a full support staff to
help
| | with
| | | flight
| | | | planning and a crew to bring and serve the
| coffee.
| | The
| | | 135
| | | | charter pilot has the best and worst job,
gets

| | to
| | | fly
| | | | pretty good airplanes but has to carry the
| luggage,
| | do
| | | all
| | | | the flight planning, brew and serve the
coffee,
| and
| | | clean
| | | | the potty.
| | | |
| | | | .................not to mention the cockpit
vomit,
| | which
| | | is a smell that
| | | | never really leaves the airplane, and I can
still
| | mentally
| | | visualize to this
| | | | very day .

I had a teenager get sick on me once in a C-210. I saw him looking kind of
green around the gills, then he started leaning over my charts. "Oh no you
don't!". I snatched my charts away just in time. He ended up puking into the
emergency gear extension well located between the two front seats. After we
landed, I made him clean it out, then I went looking for some Ozium... which is
great stuff for getting ride of the lovely bouquet of fresh steaming emesis.

The only time I myself got queasy was sitting in the back seat of an Arrow while
somebody else was flying. I didn't disgrace myself but I wasn't comfortable
either. I've always thought it was because I wasn't in control myself.

Maybe we should get paid extra to , never mind, money
doesn't fix the problems with airsick passengers and
students. Yep, Ozium.
