Ultra low-cost pilot

An Ultra Low-Cost airline needs the ability to be extremely flexible in their operation. They are very seasonal and only operate on days where most people travel. One of the biggest ways to maximize profits is to operate with as little staff as possible, especially with the highest paid labor groups. Pilots are one of the highest compensated labor group at an airline. In order to keep the compensation Ultra Low-Cost, pilots need to be spread thin or "short staffed". The company will then utilize the pilots greed against them selves by offering more money per assignment, in the form of paying them between 200%-300% extra pay, to drop everything they're doing and rush into work. This strategy makes up for pilot shortage and allows the ULCC to pay them more when they need them, but less when they don't. Additionally,

This defines the Ulta Low-Cost Pilot. A pilot who is willing to take less base pay, less retirement, and less loss of medical security. Simply to have the "possibility" to earn a higher wage of money even if it's inconsistent month to month.

The opposite; is a non Ultra Low-Cost pilot who is able to generate a steady higher guaranteed income month to month and if desired to work more, when opportunity is available still earn up to 200% pay. Basically Ulta Low-Cost pilots were pilots that said things like: "I love flying so much, I'd do it for free". Or, "I'd fly for Food".

I thought your husband was going to be here? Me too, but he is a Ultra Low-Cost Pilot. He has to volunteer to pick up last second flights to get paid close to what real pilots make.

Pilot without passengers

When you go to a club or party to try and pick up girls. You act cool and calm but have no luck and come home empty handed. You come home a "pilot without passengers"

" Hey I heard you went to that new club yesterday did you pick up anyone."
"No I was a pilot without passengers"

pilot the dune

According to legend Pilot the Dune referst to a French wartime firefighter pilot named Pierre LaDune. As a firefighter pilot, his main duty was dropping water on fires. He was known as Pilot: LaDune, or Pilot the Dune, if you will. Whenever he would drop water to extinguish fires he thought of it as "raining", and when it rained, he felt love. Stoner rock band Slo Burn based the title and theme of their song 'Pilot the Dune' on Pierre LaDune.

"It's hot in here. I'd love to rain like Pilot LaDune / Pilot The Dune."
