I'm the tall, extremely good looking guy with all the young girls hanging around. I never recline, I have a prdefernce for the window seat, and never disturb my neighbout ot get up. I wait for them to get up and then take the opportunity. I never use the seat in fron to leverage myslef in and out of the seat. I alwasy close my shades to allow those watvhig the movie to have a glare free view. I only take my selection of paper once the remainder of cabin has had their choice. I am always ready to sit in my seat when I board (no deciding that the aisle is the appropriate place to take off my jacket and get my stuff out of my bag whilst holding up the remaining 90% of pax).

Put simply you will easily pick me, I am the one with the Halo that is slowly slipping to around my neck. I hope this helps you Evan.

Exactly the image I had of you :!: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :mrgreen: :lol:
 
Reggie, you will be easily identified from all of the BS trailing you onto the plane....... ;)

yesterday I had "Pumpkin" or Qian Xun Xue.

Out of interest, who was accompanying the poor girl? I wish everyone would dump the "Pumpkin" tag and refer to her by her name (Qian Xun Xue) now that it is known to us! Hope the cough of a father is caught soon and is made to face the consequences of his actions:evil:

Yes and I will be sitting next to you, the smell will be nice.

If it helps mask the odour from my safety boots you will be more than welcome ;)

You've certainly never been on any flight that I've been on!
 
In the late sixties flying East West SYD/CBR F-27-200 (think it was Echo Whisky Oscar) sat next to Ainslie Gotto (not the Mafia), John Gortons' err secretary,:?: & talked (She did) all the way. She had a way with words ,( made even me blush :oops: )

Mid 80's flew MCY/SYD in a Airlines of N.S.W in F-28-2000 "pocket rocket", next to Clive "Killer" (he hated the nickname) Caldwell, Australias' top fighter ace from WW2. The ultimate gentleman, with exemplary memory, manners, & status.

Cheers, Dee

Safety boots and from Melbourne, another concrete miner.:p
 
Eric Bana - MEL - LAX - he was up the very front but at immigration we all caught up!

This year was on a flight MEL - ADE -
*The whole North Melb footy team
*Joe Cammilleri
*James Black (in Joe's band/from Rockwiz/Mondo Rock) was behind us

Got to ADE and the Crows were all ready to board a flight going out.

Coming back ADE - MEL -
*Diesel (As in Johnny Diesel)

Was in a fine stationery store in NYC when I turned around and Dustin Hoffman was right beside me! :) :)

Also LAX - MEL had a whole lot of guys from that MTV show Viva La Bam or one of those kinda shows.
 
If we're including footy teams.. then both the Eagles and the Dockers, a common occurance on a Thursday lunchtime :rolleyes:

The Eagles may rate a mention, not so sure about the Dockers.... :p
 
I forgot to mention - went over the Adelaide for a Crows Vs Pies game back in the mid 90s.

Pies won.

Was on their flight coming home... SO SWEET!!
 
Some years ago I flew back BNE-MEL last flight after seeing the Storm Play Broncos on a Sunday at Suncorp.

I'd upgraded to 1K and had boarded. Then we waited for about 10 minutes and the Storm team limped in (yes limped, it's a tough game, League), they sat in the first 4 rows of WHY on that 73H. There was a Sydney Journo in 1D and three or four players would stop to talk as they hobbled to/from the front toilets. These included Stephen Kearney, Robbie Kearns and Matt Orford.

Quite a few years ago I was waiting at the gate lounge for my SYD-LAX flight. There was quite a commotion as the group Hansen walked down (I did say it was a while ago - although not sure they deserve a place in the Famous People thread).

The band and their entourage must have occupied the whole J cabin. Must admit that it was one occasion I was happy to be seated in Y.

Also sat next to dual Olympic gold medallist Michael Diamond on a MEL-SYD flight only a month or so after he won his second gold medal. A very quiet guy for someone that wields a shotgun for his trade :shock:

At the Brisbane ozFest went to watch the Dockers play dismally. They were on my flight back to Perth.....Very quiet flight!

:shock: If the dockers keep getting mentioned, that would rate Mr and Mrs Blogs in seats 164 Y and Z as famous (not only for sitting in non existant seats, but you get my point)

Good thing you didn't drive, they would have keyed the car on the awy out or is that Power supporters?
