It isn't like they'll ever leave...even Granpa Radcliffe carted around his own O2 bottle.
(but he was a pretty nice guy, few and far between)
pop quiz: (creepy voice) "sooooooo where's your hometown? let me place a push pin on my little map..."

Actually there were a couple of them. Did the one you're referring to also do different voices for all the 'controllers' you talked to?
When I had a sim with Radcliffe I was afraid I'd open the canopy and find him dead. Good guy to fly with though.
I didn't mind flying with Sloyer actually, although the map was a little odd.
Gaijin, you talking about Glomb? I never had ole Covey Claus, would've been nice.
Then there's everyone's favorite, one thumbed Jeter.

Never flew with Archer. I think it depended on how much Jeter drank before coming in as to how he was. Davis was one guy I HATED. Only flew with him once, but he was a monster. If you had one word out of order from the FTI procedures, "shaky knowledge in the brief and on procedures."

That must've been a regular old kick in the nuts. Just don't pick a sh!tty IP for your XC, and hang in there, almost done.

Yeah, Glomb did the voices, which was a little weird, but better than him falling asleep when you had a question, though.
I never really liked Fairhenbockerheimer, or whatever his name was. I think he just didn't like me because I told him I didn't want jets. That, and I really didn't feel like taking his shit much. He kept asking me in this arrogant tone if I did, in fact, speak and understand English, so I asked him if he'd like me to speak another language instead. It went downhill from there.
I'm all for being respectful, especially to people with thousands and thousands of hours, who are trying to impart some of that experience onto me. But I'm too hard-headed and my BS meter is too often pegged to take shit for too long. I was a huge fan of the guys who just told me I was doing something wrong, so that I could actually FIX the problem.

Yeah, pretty stupid, but I guess I typed that post a little out of context. While walking down to the sim bay, he was asking me if I spoke any other languages. Still, my temper did get the better of me for a second. Not good headwork, I know, but I'm doing much better now.

I hear ya on this guy...almost opened up the lid on myself during one of the RI's I had with him. Apparently I was screwing up an approach (go figure) and instead of telling me what was going wrong or offering instruction on how to correct (I think they call that teaching?) I got a "ERRRRR...ERRRRR....ERRRRRR" into my headset when I screwed something else up. I was so pissed. I was about 2 seconds from taking the pinksheet, walking out, and explaining myself to the skipper than put up with one more "ERRRRR" echoing through my headset. I can feel my blood pressure rising just writing this down.
Had a buddy fly with Jeter one time. This happened not too long after his infamous blowing the thumb off of his (right-left?) hand while cleaning a shotgun. Anyway, story goes, Jeter is yelling at Blnger to fix his airwork or something and Blnger comes back with, "sorry Sir, I'm all thumbs in here"! Long pause.........Jeter comes back with HA .,,,....HA......very funny. Now thats ballsy! At least the guy had a sense of humor about it though.
Is Payne train still around,, I actually liked flying with that guy and always learned a lot although no instructor probably cussed and yelled at me more.
