| 1. | Naval Flight Officer | ||
|
An Officer in the United States Navy that makes sure that the Naval Aviator does not crash into a Mountain. He works diligently in his efforts due to the fact his body is only .3 seconds behind the Pilot in an Aircraft. Normally, a Naval Flight Officer is more Handsome and Smart in every way. This is proven by the fact that they refer to the pilot as a Stick Monkey. "My Naval Flight Officer is awesome, he saved my from flying into IRAN"

Shut the fuck up you stupid idiot "babysit pilots" "do not carry enough automation" "read the newspaper during the entire route of flight."
What the fuck are you fucking talking about?! before you start a fucking rant on somthing you know jack shit about maybe you should do a little research on your topic. Automation sucks and can lead to inadvertant mistakes. Oh and by the way the process of flying while in the cruise stage of flight is not simple you jackass The flight engineer is as much a part of the cockpit crew as the pilot in command and the first officer. He/she is a valuble member of the crew and participates activley in crew resource managment...

|
An old term and endearing term for a flight attendant. "Sky Biscuit" is seldom used in modern times due to the age and general surliness of the typical modern flight attendant.

| 5. | James McCudden | ||
|
An English aerial ace of World War I, James Thomas Byford "Mac" McCudden was one of the nation's -- and war's -- most established pilots. When the war began, McCudden saw combat as an observer and gunner for the Royal Flying Corps before returning to England for flight training in 1916. He claimed fifty-seven victories in dogfights over enemy pilots (including German ace Werner Voss), a substantial number cut short only by his death at age 22 after his aircraft stalled on takeoff and crashed to the ground. By the time the war was over, McCudden was the second-leading ace of the war for England, in line behind Edward C. Mannock's sixty-one victories, and for his efforts he had been decorated with numerous awards and medals: The Croix de Guerre, the Military Medal, the Military Cross and Bar, the Distinguished Service Order and Bar, and the Victoria Cross. "As a patrol leader he has at all times shown the utmost gallantry and skill, not only in the manner in which he has attacked and destroyed the enemy, but in the way he has, during several aerial fights, protected the newer members of his flight, thus keeping down their casualties to a minimum. This officer is considered, by the record he has made, by his fearlessness, and by the great service which he has rendered to his country, deserving of the very highest honor." - London Gazette, 2 April 1918, in regards to McCudden's Victoria Cross award

| 6. | FAG | ||
|
Flight Attendant Guy. Ironic, because most male flight attendants are also gay, really gay. Most FAG's are named Gary or Lance or something to that effect, and they are usually sort of annoying. Captain: Ugh Jared, who's our flight attendant today?
First Officer: Some FAG, I think his name is Gary. Captain: I hope he doesn't come up here and try and make small talk. |

| 7. | Gays, Grannies and Grandes | ||
|
An accurate description of Southwest Airlines' Flight Attendants. In reference to a Southwest pilot who got caught transmitting his endeavors with a stuck microphone to air traffic control. 64.5 year-old Captain:
I would have gone to the bar and given these flight attendants a real stud to take back to their room, but my flight was full of Gays, Grannies and Grandes! 23 year-old First Officer: Yes Captain, they were all talking about how hot you must be with your pants off! |
