Yep, that's right!

I barrel rolled a 737 we were delivering (empty) to Islip-McArthur!

I'm finding that very hard to believe. Not that a 737 could do it,
that they'd let you at all. What was your altitude at the start? How
much did you drop on the roll?

Wel, you wouldn't lose anyting. I've done it in the sim and know someone
who did it in a Convair 880 in the old days. they go around clean and it's
OK as long as you don't dish out at the end or let the nose down and get an
excess of speed going.

But Jax wouldn't know that except for reading it in some planespotter's
magazine or hanging out at the airport and talking to the lusers around the
coffee urn.
the only people who will talk to him, of course.




I've flown so much in some many places and know so much about ARINC,
RTCA, NAVAIR, etc that your head would spin. In fact, Berties would
spin like a propellor right off his neck.

Maybe, but of course, yo know, most of the docs are online so he could
simply READ.


He's jealous that I am an icon as a pilot. In fact, I'm notorious for
turning off the transponder and barreling through controlled airspace!

Icon? REAL pilots would call you an idiot.

Real pilots do.
