When flying helos he keeps his feet on the floor.
When doing night autorotations to a tossing helo deck he brings a Kindle for entertainment.
Torque doesn't dare interfere with his hair

His certificate notes that he's proficient in English...in French.
The only airway he's flown is named "Direct"
His clearance void times are never shorter than his fuel on board;
His magnetos check on him before flight...

He flys a C17 solo just to be able to support his huge brass balls!!
He has a parking spot with his name on it at Area 51!
When he flys a Cirrus it actualy looks cool.
He won the Anzari prize in a modified Ercoupe but didn't bother to request the prize; he did not need it...
His beard is twice the size of Rutans lamb chops..
His plane has 3 rudder pedals, yet nobody knows why...
His Farts form lenticular clouds...
He once flew the Spruce Goose to Kansas just to see the largest ball of twine..
His compas card has no deviation...

If he pulls the chute, it repacks itself.

The most interesting pilot in the world:
He doesn't always fly in IMC, but when he does, he exchanges brief, knowing glances with the birds he occasionally sees flying there.
Stay spatially oriented my friends.

He doesn't follow laws, he writes them and signs them "FAA Chief Counsel".
Heh. Sorry, I was inspired by another thread.

When given the option, he chooses both.
He leans half his cylinders LOP and the other half ROP
He once flew without filing a flight plan... and didn't crash.
ATC requests to transition into his airspace.
He is... the most interesting pilot in the world.
I don't always fly planes, but when I do, I prefer experimental.

He uses both crab-kickout and slip technique in the same cross-wind landing.

I had to do that once when I ran out of rudder authority.

Ha. I was landing in Delaware, Ohio. Wind straight out of the south at 30+. Runway is east-west of course. Put it in a slip 1/2 mile out, nope, can't hold centerline. I'm full to the floor with the rudder and still drifting.
Lotta sideload on that landing. Oh yeah, it was my first flight in that airplane. (Was the Cherokee I bought in NC that day)

I didn't read the whole thread, but at least on this page, yours captures the tenor of the original ad best. Nicely done.

The procedures are whatever he feels like doing that day
The checklist is already checked-off in permanent marker
He performs an annual inspection daily and always passes
He blows his nose and exudes de-icing fluid
His cologne is 150 Octane High Lead
If he has a mechanical breakdown in mid-air, he just gets out and walks and comes back to get the airplane later
He is.....TMIPITW

Air Force One waits for him to land, just to see how it is done!
Carrier Night OPS in zero-zero was his first solo.
The FAA can't through the book at him...because he wrote it!
I don't always fly pattern altitude, but when I do it because there isn't on published.

He once insulted the RV-10 on Pilots of America... and got away with it.
He catches the 3 wire every time... but has never flown a naval aircraft.
TFR's were established as his private akro airspace.
He acknowledges instructions at OSH with a crisp snaproll.
I don't always fly Cessnas, but when I do, I prefer a Pitts. Stay current, my friends.

He once prevented a spin...by commanding the boundary layer to reattach.
He utilizes perfect crew resource management...with himself.
If he was from the FAA...he really would be there to help.
He is the most interesting pilot in the world.

Yay!
Air Force One was once grounded for busting his VIP TFR.
The Designated Pilot Examiner pays him for checkrides.
He has his own PIREP chart symbol so that others will know where he's been spotted.
He doesn't often go through TSA, but when he does they give him Dos Equis.

He is the only pilot ever known to fly out of a black hole while cruising in outer space.

I've even slipped with full flaps in an Aztec (50 deg flaps) and a Navajo/Chieftain (40 deg). Brick alert!
