Southwest Pilot Airs Dirty Laundry

After a quick board check I don't think this topic has been covered yet.

The incident was in March but the tape was just released last night. The Houston Chronicle has the raw audio feed.

Favorite line is that he's sick of all the flight attendants being "gays, grannies or grandes" !!

"Wanna get away? Oh wait, I'm actually flying the plane. Hey everybody, let's all go to Cabo!!"

sent it to a buddy of mine who retired from AA.

He said the 777 has a mic that hangs next to your knee, and it's real easy to bump the switch without knowing it.

I dont fly all the time, but the last few flights I took had hotties running things in the cabin. Didnt see no grannies.....

His characterization of most attendants is entirely accurate. It's annoying, but the dude's an idiot for not watching his mouth.

I'm not sure what it says about me, but that audio just cracked me up, along with the reactions of the other pilots.

Very funny!

The responses were classic. "by the way ( tower), that wasn't us"

I guess "bags fly free" refers to their flight attendants.
