why I wanna be a helo pilot

[eman1200]

straight outta wiki*..............


hand signals on the ramp for an airplane are apparently given by this guy, who looks he might be a guy from the 1950's who when u pulled into a gas station he'd run out and say "change your oil sir? can I put air in your tires sir? have a nice day! come back soon now, ya hear?"










where as helo pilots get this guy, who looks like a bad motha @#$%a tellin' u "you can park yo sht here but you best be leavin yo b!tches with me, ya feel me?!?"









and tell me that dude aint groovin to michael jackson or some shiz like that. helo pilots MUST be the shiznit.

*for real, this is on the same wiki page on ramp hand signals.
EDIT: wiki link

These are all bad. But what I want to know is what drove Hitler to become a line service tech? And I'm not sure thats the "military salute" he would use...

Whenever I see those marshaling hand signals I always think of this line from this song. Makes me laugh.

Just skip to the 4 minute mark if you don't want to waste much time.

My uncle was a F15 guy. These guys have a few funny songs if you like military aviation. Viper pilots.
