Things you never want to hear your flight crew say after takeoff

The Guerrilla Traveler

--Don’t worry; this baby can still fly just fine with only one engine.
--$100 says this thing can too do a barrel roll.
--Let’s see if that loudmouth Delta pilot can play a little game of “chicken”
--Captain, did you just say, “Thank you for flying Jihad Airlines” ?
--No, I thought it was your turn to close the airtight door.
--Idiot! Never, never, set your coffee cup on that “Fuel Dump” button.
--Wow, what a coincidence, it’s my first day on the job, too.
--Captain, why don’t you just put this thing on auto-pilot and come join our little party?
--Does anyone know what that flashing red light thingy is?
--What do you mean, you just got us a 50% discount at our last refueling stop?
--Tower, did you just say, “eeney, meeney, miney, moe?
--Here’s your parachute, here’s yours, and yours, and here’s mine.
