I am still in shock over the sheer number of hams and planets that were on this flight from hell. My husband and I were on our way back from our honeymoon, and we had a connecting flight after this one landed.
As we are waiting to board, I started noticing that almost everyone is fat as fuck! I'm not exaggerating when I say that 2/3 of the passengers were OBESE, not just your average shameless sloppy pig.The remaining third were all almost overweight. I counted about 15 humans.
So as we are waiting to board and the butterslugs are finishing their $30.00 airport domino pizzas and latte milkshakes, I pray to the airport gods that we win the human lottery for the seat next to us. CHA CHING tiny lady takes the window seat.
Some nasty planet who takes showers as a suggestion not a rule sat in front of my SO. She smelled like something died in her ass 5 years ago and she just couldn't reach it. she sat in a human's seat instead of her own on the other side of the aisle. he looked grossed out when he asked her to move to her actual seat. she bent over to get up and had trouble...her ass was so close to our faces I almost vomited.
So we have been sitting on the plane for 45 minutes now, what's going on? The pilot ANNOUNCES THAT TEN PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO GET OFF THE PLANE BECAUSE THIS PLANE HAS A WEIGHT LIMIT. OMG you guys. The volunteers were mostly made up of humans. I saw one prize pig volunteer like 400 pounds. None of these fatass cared. teehees all around.
After people left the plane, we had to wait another 45 minutes for the pilot to receive the NEW WEIGHT PLAN or the flight. we just barely made our connecting flight which was great because there were no other flights to our destination.
let me tell you, the smell on that plane was triggering....still in shock from this experience. Don't even get me started on tourist hams :(

As a (private) pilot, I can tell you that weight is a big issue. The center of gravity has to be in a very precise spot otherwise there is absolutely no control over the plane. Additionally, with all of those hams on board, the weight of the plane is significantly increased, meaning the pilot has to land faster. And too fast of landings can have dire consequences: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FedEx_Express_Flight_80. On my plane, I have a strict no-ham policy. I definitely don't envy airline pilots who deal with hams that weigh as much as the plane itself. Pilots already have to redistribute fuel through various tanks as it burns to maintain the center of gravity, which is complicated enough. And then to have to deal with a plane full of hams? No thanks. In short: I'm a pilot and I hate fat people on airplanes.

My first rounds of flight lessons were cheaper than average at my flight school : I was the only guy who could fit in the Tomahawk.

That's funny.I had the first round of my lessons in a Diamond DA-20, another plane those blubbermooses wouldn't fit in.
