Pilot Confessions

Confessions of a pilot, letting the world know what really happens unravelling the myths and rumours

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

What liveries and aircrafts can you see? Location? @KLM @British_Airways @Delta @united @flybe @enterairspzoo

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Schools close because staff can't get in but flights cancelled because crew can't get in or runways close and everyone loses it. #crewlife #doublestandards

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

For those people that say the plane flies it's self, rubbish in rubbish out...bit like you #pilotrant #pilot

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

@Nir890 How about adding birds in NOTAMs?

#naughtsandcrosses anyone? #pilotgames #XO #pilotlife #contrail

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Got to love how #pax complain to airlines when weather is bad. Ever tried driving in the dark and heavy rain with no headlights? #pilotlife

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

So what is the enjoyment about shining #lasers at #aircraft ? What are you trying to achieve? #pilotlife #rant #banlasers

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

I do miss watching the sunrise during the summer and it is practically light all day #pilotproblems #pilotlife

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Yes we pilots do listen to radio stations in the air and we do chat about scores over the frequency. #pilotlife #pilotchat #Confessions

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Would definitely prefer max #crosswind and bumpy approaches any day to #wake #turbulence. #pilotlife #pilotstories

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Can't think of a seat with better views. #flightdeck #pilotlife

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

#dontblamethecrew yes you are delayed but guess what, so are the crew. It's not their fault and they try to do their best!

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

@BALPApilots This should be put at the same level as lasers as it is clear danger to the aircraft and those on board.

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

When #pilots say that belts should be fastened when seated its for your safety. If you hurt yourself from not listening, it's your fault.

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

The #awkward moment when you forget to turn the seat belt signs off for the whole flight. Pax don't care anyway do they? #pilotconfessions

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

Delays are a nightmare for passengers but also for the crew since they are probably delayed for the way home too. #pilotlife

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

The conversations you have in the flight deck while the aircraft shouts "minimums". #pilotlife #flightdeck #conversation

[Pilot Confessions @pilot_confess]

The people that get the blame for any delays is the crew. They can be the ones rescuing but passengers will always complain. #crewlife
