Best one yet...my captain once got an ACARS reflow notification while on a deadhead on *not our own airline*. Boo. Would’ve been a shame if the FA who was supposed to deliver this slip of paper “to the xxx airlines pilot in 11D” had somehow lost it or spilled coffee on it.
Feel so sad for Captain Roger Victor. No boating on his day off when he lands... ACARS is great addition unless Louie uses him to bring bad news...hahaha
If Roger can do Yakko and the counties of the world, Somehow I envision some classic Abbot and Costello riffs as future scripts for ACARS. “Some of these airport workers have funny names, we have Who in the tower, What working Departure, I Don’t Know at Center”. “Being a good pilot, I need clearance for take off, so I call who in the Tower.” “That’s right” “What?” “No, he’s working Departure” “Uhhh....don’t know” “Now you on with Center” “Let’s try this another way. Does the FAA pay the salaries of the folks in the tower?” “Of course they do.” “So when it’s time to collect the paychecks in the tower, who gets the money. “Every dollar of it.” “Who gets the money?” “Yes” “What?” “What’s at Departure” “I don’t know” “Now you’re taking to center again!”
"you're not even a valid form of notification!"
"Yes I aaaaaaaam!"
So umm... Pretty sure some of those quotes for Louie I think came right out of my mouth. Signed Former Crew Scheduling Supr.
But when you use ACARS to notify the company of your needs, then all of a sudden the printer is installed on top of the shredder.
Love it! "We got 'em!" is so true. And the bane of our existence.
I wonder how high that acars will hit on Louie’s “pilot abuse and fatigue” chart :)
More Louie videos. He’s by far my favorite employee at Speed Tape Airlines.
Usually they wait until you are on descent or approach to send those messages
going around!
Always remove the roll of ACARS paper after you have received the landing data on the last leg of a multi day.
The little speedy ACARS exits with sound effects are an excellent touch! Hilarious!
Excellent!!!! Guess Captain Victor won’t be going home today...
Great clip. Gotta love Louie.
Louie!! Nice one again captain!
Love the new character ACARS.. Awesome!!
these always make my day.

I work for ESU this is the type of call you get 5mins before finish... Usually a shitty call that goes on for hours... I feel your pain.
I thought the rat would be management :D
What would a weasel character be?
@@paulsherman51 Someone weaselling their way into management ... a Base Captain maybe? :)
@@amcconnell6730 Hilarious! Or maybe the CQFO or someone who wants not to upgrade for fear of losing choice of base?
Explaining aircraft systems with muppets. Well finally something more my speed.
This is what’s known as the penalty lap. Usually they arrive back at base just late enough to miss your commute.

You are a funny funny man.....I have never met a cool/funny airline pilot but obviously they are out there hiding in the herd
