Understandable. Too many pilots on this thread.

But don’t feel like a fool.

I know now...now know...what a “Messerschmidt” is.

Used in a sentence:

“If you want to know your height, you should messerschmidt.”

What a flaming-butt Fokker! Now we have to call in the token neighborhood Hoser to “cool its jets” and its queer, scabbed, rashy, and raging lower nether regions. What a pained, twisted, accidental affair. At least the Hoser and the Fokker’s end relationship stopped short of being tragic and devastating...even though all the friction left the Fokker a complete wreck and in total meltdown. The flaming Fokker is to blame though—it had the Hoser at hello, by force, and was the instigator in this whole sorry, scrap-heap of a mess. (Sing-song voice) “Drama queen.”

Some 200 Britons were stranded in Italy last night after a holiday jet was hit by a string of failures. First the generators on the Airbus failed, leaving passengers destined for Stansted sweltering on the tarmac at Naples with no air conditioning. There was another delay when oxygen masks unexpectedly deployed from the ceiling.<<<

Pancho Barnes: "I tell you, we got two categories of pilots around here. We got your prime pilots that get all the hot planes, and we got your pud-knockers who dream about getting the hot planes. Now what are you two pud-knockers gonna have? Huh?"

LOL. (And with only one cup of coffee in transit.)

I can not believe you didn’t give me kudos for the “hot plane” line. If you can tell me what movie it is from you win.

P.S. NO Googleing allowed!

I’m not certain, but I’ll guess “Hotshots”. I tend to avoid Charlie Sheen movies, and I think he was in that.

OK, I looked. I knew I had heard the line before. It came from “The Right Stuff”.
