Hello my name is Randy and I'm a Captain for a major US airline. My current airplane is the 737. I've been flying for around 39 years. I started in general aviation (small airplanes) before my 8 years in the military flying fighters and now 27 years as a airline pilot. A lot of funny things and not so funny things happen on any given trip that I fly and I thought I would share some stories in future posts. If you ever have a question about something that happened to you, or are just curious about how things work in the airline business please ask and I'll do my best to give you the TRUE reason or reasons. Here I am with a passenger from last year on a trip to Las Vegas. I'm the one on the left. Her hair was so big it stretched across the aisle almost to the other seat. I think maybe she is a character for something on the Las Vegas strip, or she just identifies with being a bird. Very nice lady.
