The Most Interesting Pilot in the World...

The 406 MHz ELT was created because the ping from the old ELT annoyed him.

He doesn't' need boots or a hot plate as ice refuses to accumulate on his plane.

The DPE pays him to do his own check ride.

He sumps his fuel into a martini glass.

Be Proficient my friend.

Need one Presidential TFRs, Position & Hold versus Line up and wait, C vs. P vs. Bo vs. Mooney debates...

hmmm...

Presidential TFRs have a transition route, just for him.

He can fly a low wing, in a high wing.

The placard in his plane say that slipping with full flaps is recommended.

"I don't line up and wait often, but when I do, I prefer "position and hold.""

"Stay proficient, my friends" (Note: I think this is the best line!!)
 
"He doesn't wait out the weather, the weather waits for him"

"His airplane doesn't stall. He just scares it out of the sky"

"He once had an engine failure at night, and liked what he saw"

"His airplane doesn't need money to fly. His plane really does fly on hopes and dreams"

Stay Proficient, my friends.
 
I don't often fly Bonanzas, but when I do, I prefer V-tails.
I don't often fly Mooneys, but when I do, I prefer the Johnson Bar
I don't often fly Pipers, but when I do, I prefer the Super Cub
I don't often fly Cessnas, but when I do, I prefer the 185.
 
The TSA lists him as their emergency contact.
His actual and desired track are always the same.
He once flew a half dot deflection, just for the experience.

"I don't always carry maps, but when I do, I prefer Rand McNally. Stay current, my friends."
 
Once a week he calls FSS for the current list of nonsense TFR's then blows through the DC ADIZ and every TFR on that list in his private SU-27 in full AB at 100 AGL with "TFR THIS" written in big letters on the tail.
 
For him, ground controllers "line up and wait" to "position and hold" his dinner jacket...
 
To him, TFR simply means "that's 'effin' ridiculous..."
 
He advised the Wright Brothers, Chuck Yeager, and John Glenn before their historic flights.
He IS the senior check pilot.
They don't call him a test pilot. They call them test aircraft.
He once ejected from a plane only to climb back in and land safely.
He built a F15 in his garage.

He is the most interesting pilot in the world.

Be proficient, my friends.
 
I like "stay current, my friends" better because it rolls off the tongue easier, AND, follows the same cadence as "stay thirsty, my friends". Proficient has an extra syllable.

Also, "current" sounds more pilot-like to me.
 
He can fly single-engine aircraft... with a multi-engine rating.

He is always current, even when he is not.

His blood smells like 100LL.

He is... the most interesting pilot in the world.

Stay current, my friends.


...and I agree with Elizabeth, current works better.

OK - you convinced my. You have my vote!

Rating? That's for lesser pilots....

When he receives a rating, it is handed to him at an invitation-only gala dinner, the proceeds of which go to charity. No checkride is involved, it simply makes the FAA feel better about itself.
 
He is the reason Snoopy wears goggles and scarf and shoots blindly at the sky.
 
Superman went on the Maury Show and finally found out that he was his real daddy.
 
At the National Air & Space Museum, he is allowed to fly the exhibits.

When tower gives him a number to call, it's not because he's in trouble, it's because they just want to chat.

He gets full service at the self service pumps.

He is...the most interesting pilot in the world.

"I don't always fly a standard pattern. But when I do, I prefer a downwind entry."

"Stay current, my friends!"

It's a rip-off of my favorite line from the commercials ("He once had an awkward moment, just to see what it felt like").

The Most Interesting Pilot in the World on high wings:

"No."
 
I don't always lean, but when I do, I lean forward. (red board inside joke)

Stay current my friends.
 
Sean Tucker puked flying with him.
When he lands at Reagan at O-dark thirty, off duty controllers wake up -- just see it.
When he describes seat belt use, women swoon, men cry, and babies are silent.

"I don't always land on the centerline, but when I do, I put the third sipe on the edge.

Stay current, My friend."
 
When approaching an airport, SHE has to climb to pattern altitude...

6Y9 inside joke... ;)
 
I don't always travel on airplanes, but when I do, I prefer GA.

I counter you:

He does not own a ground-based vehicle. But if he did, it would be certified for IFR to Cat IIIC.

When he flies commercial, the airline pilots give up their seats simply to watch him fly.

I do not always make a traffic pattern. But when I do, I use whichever one is most convenient.

His house IS the airport.

Stay current, my friends.
