Air Force vs. Airlines: Let's laugh a little

For what it is worth I made all of these up, I did not copy them.  If they suck, blame me and me alone.

The Air Force flies into hostile skies and drops angry fighting men on to the battlefield

The airlines fly into JFK and drop Yankees fans into Queens (home of the Mets)

Air Force pilots dodge fire in Iraq and Afghanistan

Airline pilots dodge each other at O'Hare and LAX

Air Force pilots carry guns in case they are brought down

Airline pilots carry guns to prevent being brought down

Air Force pilots drink cheap scotch

Airline pilots drink better cheap scotch (except during the manager's special at the Embassy Suites)

The Air Force has loadmasters

The airlines have flight attendants that look like loadmasters

Air Force fighter pilots fly 300 hours a year

Airline pilots fly 300 hours by April.

Air Force pilots have GO PILLS

Airline pilots have Starbucks

Air Force pilots have parachutes, ejection seats and survival kits

Airline pilots don't, the airlines wants to make sure they bring the plane back

Air Force pilots retire at 42 with a 50% pension and go to the airlines

Airline pilots retire at 65 with a 401K and go fly some idiots Navajo for $22,000 a yr.

A crappy layover for an Air Force pilot is tent in Iraq

A crappy layover for an airline pilot is an Econolodge (you decide)

An Air Force bomber pilot is likely flying a plane his grandfather flew (BUFF)

An Airline pilot is likely flying an airplane that he flew at a different airline before it was merged into his current carrier

Air Force pilots dodge bullets and missiles

Airline pilots dodge crew services and FAA inspectors

Air Force pilots want to get promoted out of the cockpit

Airline pilots pray they can stay in the cockpit (medical/merger/backruptcy)

Air Force pilots get paid based on rank and time in service

Airline pilots get based on what the union can negotiate and who's in bankruptcy

Air Force pilots have the AFA

Airlines pilots have ALPA (I have no idea which one does a better job)

The Air Force has the BX

The Airlines have an airport discount

Air Force pilots fly plane loads of nasty grumpy people

Airline pilots fly plane loads of nasty grumpy people
