Why you should ALWAYS tell your wife you are going flying - and with whom

I'm sorry, but he's my hero!
 
Some of the comments under that article are classic.
 
This brought back a memory for me. I once worked with a good ol' boy who told a story of his flying days. It began, "So, back in the 80's, I was flying at night from San Antone with a couple of strippers..." It turns out he had a little engine scare, but got it resolved. Story ended with "So lesson learned - no flying with anyone who isn't my wife."
 
Probably just picked up a couple of hitch hikers going his way.
 
Just because he has to women aboard is no reason to get all up in arms. My wife would not be upset unless we where all naked. Then maybe, but not everyone cheats on ones spouse.
Some can have friends of the opposite sex and nothing going on. Just maybe these two women asked for a ride and he was kind enough to do it.

Maybe he had just responded to a note on the FBO bulletin board from a woman who'd always wanted to take her daughter for an airplane ride. I've heard that happens.
 
Reminds me of a SAR case we had while I was at Barbers Point. A well known businessman was overdue on a trip from the Big Island to Oahu on his sailboat. He was known to have medical issues so his wife was understandably concerned. We launched a C-130 and activated a 95ft boat from both Hilo and Kahului. His boat was sighted by the 130 anchored off Lanai. When the Cape Newagen from Kahului arrived it was determined he was not alone, and not wanting three Coasties tromping down into the cabin while he was.....ummm getting his bilge pumped. :nono:
 
I read in a story elsewhere he was also a student pilot.

Just listened to the audio. Super calm and collected for anyone, let alone a newish pilot.

"The plane is registered to Michael Schwartz of South Salem, who was listed as a student pilot as of April, the FAA said. The plane registration was issued in June, the FAA said."

I hate when that happens!! :rofl::rofl:
I landed one time at my home FBO with a VERY pretty blond in the right seat, she was stunning and also the girlfriend of one of my dad's best friends. Well my wife was there to meet me, very usual, but I had told her that Hillary was flying up to Atlanta with me and she brought the kids to say hello. The line guy comes up to the foul weather window and in his best hushed/urgent whisper he tells me. "Dude your wife is here!!, she's realy here!!" :yikes: I could see the entire FBO staff staring out the window to see the cat fight they where anticipating! :nono::nono: Of course we got off the plane, the girls hugged and we all went on our way.:D
I was a little disappointed that the folks at the FBO A. thought I was cheating on my wife.:no: B. They thought I was dumb enough to fly a girlfriend into my home FBO! ;)

I wish I had some, she was beautiful, he boyfriend was just an average looking guy, but he did have a decent bank account, if that sort of thing matters. ;) They broke up a while back, I think her life went a little downhill, but she could make folks watch as she walked by. :D
 
This thread is awesome!

I would never try such a thing being happily married but if I were to try I just know the chance of an engine failure would go up 1 million %. Murphy would make it so!

I think it's called the "Bobby Petrino Law of Probability"

And that ****at just got another head coaching job! Probably with some restrictions on who he can hire!!:nono::nono:
 
Maybe the only thing worse that dying in a plane crash with the other woman, is living through a plane crash with the other woman. :nono::nono:
I'm pretty sure my wife would make me wish I had done the right thing and died! :mad2::mad2:
 
Fortunate me.... I can depend on my lovely wife to keep the plane stocked with cuties. ;)
