Default One for Montblack

We had a captain at PSA that used to put a rubber chicken under the
windshield wiper as he was taxiing in to the gate. One day the company
president saw the chicken and told Bogle to knock it off, no more rubber
chickens.

The next day the aircraft rolled in to the gate with a "for sale" sign in
the window.

We snicker at the idea but I used to have a maintenance chief who would
dress up in a captain's uniform when he went bar hopping. He claimed it
was an excellent chick magnet. Didn't do much for the company image but
we were air cargo so I guess nobody gave a damn.

Another great application for the classic rubber chicken gag... I'd bet
Herb Kelleher from SWA would encourage such behavior - maybe not the
"for sale" sign, as it'd probably start a slew of merger/consolidation
rumors : )
