they still wanna sometimes do a barrel roll or some dive with these aeroplanes......

Old habits die hard LOL. What does an RD riding nut like you do in these planes?

Welcome Faiz!
I have one question... might sound a bit silly but here goes..
Youtube is full of fantastic fighter pilot videos. I've seen hundreds of them.
Most of them look "unofficial", i.e pilot must've shot them for personal use [i.e showing off ]
French fighter pilot vids are a delight to watch!
Pulled this one out of my browser history.

How come we dont see IAF vids?
Is shooting vids a strict no-no?
Or is it coz the pilots too smug to care about youtube ??

An RD riding nut like me puts the autopilot on at 100 feet after take off,takes off his tie at 10000 feet,changes into a tshirt in cruize.......has his continental meal with a glass of coke......later icecream,popcorn,chocolates,fruits.........depending on wat flight im doing......puts on his uniform back at top of descent,his tie back on at 10000 feet and disconnects the autopilot at 100 feet to land......in doin so this plane lands herself

I was relief crew once on a london flight and this fauji was trying to show off his flying skills (or lack of them) to one of our gora examiners......the examiner told that joker "my friend,we are indias only five star airline....and u know why we are five star?? "
Joker replies (while trying to manually fly the aeroplane up and down) "no capt,tell me..."
Examiners says....."we let the autopilot fly for the comfort of passengers,thats why we are a five star airline.....you show me ur flying skills in the simulator the next time i do ur check"

then he engages the autopilot himself.........

LOL i cudnt help but let of a lil laugh......
