If they delay the flight, they are a muppet. Doesn't matter if they just make it on board.
Delay to flight = reschedule and a lot of work for ground and air traffic control. Of course, if you're a big enough muppet you don't give a tinkers what the implications of your attitude are. Well, if you were civilised and responsible, then you would.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Welcome back.
I'd prefer to fly via ANU, pick up a Liat bus to EIS then get on a cat and sail it. You can drop bodies over the side on the way.

Probably better off flying TWA or BOAC as neither of them exist either

Let me assure you - MF is the biggest muppet out of them all...Originally posted by WTFH View PostDelay to flight = reschedule and a lot of work for ground and air traffic control.

Not really for ATC or Ground Movement Control (new slots), more dispatch - how many hours do crew have left that day. SH PITA for pax, LH/MH cost to company in fuel to make up time. Some ground crew irritation if bags have to be offloaded and fuel, de-icing required. Effort by PIC to piss about with MCDU will make him rage on an Airbus. MCDUs will make anyone rage at any time though.Originally posted by WTFH View PostIf they delay the flight, they are a muppet. Doesn't matter if they just make it on board.

Do they make you rage as much as questions about A319/320 PTUs from punters?
