About 35 years ago (during my drinking days) I flew a couple times
with a fellow that would drink beer while flying.

We were flying out of a small airport in Alabama and I really didn't
think much of it. Now after being sober for a long time and a little
older and still alive I realize how crazy that was.

I knew a guy in Calif who had a reputation of drinking while crop
dusting with helicopter. I passed it off as just gossip until one day
when I was working a field and his rig pulled in and he began flying
the same field I was. I walked over and chatted with him to see what
the deal was. Turned out the farmer had called us both just to make
sure his field got sprayed. The guy asked what I was going to do and I
said I had already sprayed half of the field and was going to finish.
What he did was up to him. So, he pulls a beer out of the little
cooler in his cockpit, offers me one which I declined, and proceeds to
drink one while he gets a load of chemical and starts to spray where I
had already worked!
I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I did call a friend of mine
with the FAA and advised him what I had seen. Not sure if any action
was ever taken as I was never contacted about it by anyone.

A certain percentage of the population has serious problems with alcohol.
It shouldn't surprise anyone that pilots are not immune. I knew controllers
who would come to work reeking of alcohol and I've seen some take drinks out
in the parking lot. I haven't seen any of that since the FAA started
mandatory alcohol testing.

See _The Pilot_ (1980), with Cliff Robertson. As I recall, at the end of the
movie he ends up going from airline pilot to ... cropduster.

Good.

A crop-duster is still a pilot, which you are not, and never will be
anything but a wannabe.

Anthony is a wannabe wannabe. He hasn't figured out how to be a wannabe
yet.

At least he contributes SOMETHING of value to this newsgroup. He asks
real questions, whereas all most of you can do is call him names,
repeat ad nauseum that he is not a pilot, etc. If the actual content
of what he says ****es you off so much, why don't you rub two brain
cells together and come up with, oh I don't know, a counter-argument?
Or perhaps you used all of your intellectual capacity coming up with
such clever names as "Benjamin Dover" and "Buster Hyman" (if the
latter belongs to an adult, the admission to pedophilia is somewhat
disturbing).

Are you a newbie or just clueless? Anthony's chronic modus operandi is to
ask a seemingly innocent question, and then argue the response with his
usual confrontational and unsubstantiated style, as if his internet and
MSFS experience somehow equate to actually flying.

Get a clue and watch for a while.

Did Anthony give you a good blow job for your defending him? If not, he
cheated you.

Hand job. That's how sockpuppets are paid.

It's been done, time and again. Never makes any difference.

He contradicts commercial pilots and flight instructors. He can't be
told he's wrong.
