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 paid 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.

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 -- James H.

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 :-)) Dudley Henriques "Jim Macklin" wrote in message news:mslKf.100257$4l5.75119@dukeread05...

About Good Pilots and Bad Pilots
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.
