Default Mikey Robbins on Pilots

Hey All,

After the fog diversions earlier this week, Mikey Robbins had this to say about pilot on Vega953:

http://www.vega953.com.au/site/shows...ikey/home.aspx

and go to the link with the 747 next to it.

Nick

Hmmmmm, it only takes 2 pilots (no flight engineer) to fly a 400 tonne aircraft for 8+ hours over 1000s of kms with 100s of pax.......yet it takes 3 "talents" (supported by a director/sound engineer) to present a radio show for a few hours. Go figure.........

Still very funny though.......
