Let's think about this, CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF WE HAD PULLED THAT JIVE TURKEY STUFF ON ANY OF OUR FLIGHTLINES?????? Excuse me but you always got a chrispy salute and a big thumbs up...what more can a driver ask? One o' them Kick the Tires and light the Fires...

A bomb competition for charity. Cool.
I'd seen this before and was amazed especially when they started with Americans...funny stuff.
I'm not sure what to think about the big boobed CC...amazing, we didn't have to deal with that problem... Hell, I remember when there were stewardesses, and they were pretty. A CC with boobs...
