Pilot to ATC : "I don't like your attitude"

[@TheGichnni]

"Settle down Captain happy" hahahahahahaha!!!! Best reply

[@sct913]

"I make a mistake every two to three minutes ...". And this clown still has a license to fly commercial jets?

[@putridvomit]

It's normal for a pilot to make mistakes.

[@joelrichards7606]

Its normal to screw up because we are all human.. Sadly, this guy is being very hypercritical since he was the one to just screw up. haha! He probably got another divorce or something.. lol

[@BollocksUtwat]

*And this clown still has a license to fly commercial jets?* They give them speed brakes for a reason.

[@prorobo]

Hahahahahaha. Controller was in the right as was the "Captain Happy" pilot. Awesome.

[@Switchback028]

"I make a mistake ever 2 to 3 minutes..." And that is why I don't fly delta.

[@tiverton]

How many Delta pilots does it take to screw in a light bulb? One. He just holds it up and the whole world revolves around him.

[@ElJefeGrande123]

The pilot should understand the job of Air Traffic CONTROL. Control being the operative word.

[@pianodotcom7905]

WTF ATC ALSO STANDS FOR MY NAME :OOO IM SPECIAL

[@sondesix_]

Be careful, or captain happy will get mad...

[@TKite2409]

I don't like your attitude! Yeah, well I don't like your altitude!

[@cometjockeydave4041]

The pilot is obviously the one with the attitude problem here, not the ATC controller.

[@borninjordan7448]

+Comet Jockey Dave Absolutely, the controller was nice.

[@YodaWasSith]

I'll explain as much as I can, what I think is happening; pilot calls for taxi, ATC gives clearance to Lima, but the pilot is probably new in the area and doesn't know the taxi-ways. L and M are right next to each other, so the pilot may have misread the directional signs and tried to go onto Mike instead of Lima. The proper thing to do for the ATC would have been to say exactly where to go, and the proper thing to do for the pilot would have been to ask for assistance in taxiing. Pilot is in the wrong, as it is the pilot's responsibility to know the taxi-ways or ask for assistance if he's not 100% sure of where he's going.

[@dirtcurt1]

Anybody know the difference between God and a Pilot? God doesn't think He's a Pilot.

[@YodaWasSith]

dirtcurt1 But if god is omnipotent and omniscient, wouldn't he have the power to be a pilot should he desire that?

[@DanWeecks]

Touché

[@taliba925]

In my opinion, the controller did his job. The pilot was rude...

[@Maufinvest]

"Settle down, captain happy" lmao someone give that guy a medal!

[@jangrebe3148]

Cookhie?

[@donnaviestenz7773]

Capt. Happy has DSBU.......

[@OskarOH]

"I make a mistake every 2 to 3 minutes"? Something's telling me that guy shouldn't be in the cockpit.

[@PraetorianPhalanx]

Your sarcasm detector isn't working. Get it fixed.

[@OskarOH]

Sarcasm or not, saying that on the radio is a mistake in itself.

[@bovinebear2979]

Oskar OH nice comeback!

[@OskarOH]

bovine bear Thanks!

[@Nicklin30112]

He shouldn't be flying

[@worldaviation4k]

he said he makes a mistake every 2 minutes, so erm, atc was just helping him with his minute mistake

[@GlaStar-dr7ww]

the flight attendent rejected him the night before

[@sadikmeah4057]

I am fully behind Captain Happy. It can't be easy when you find out that your wife has just ran off with an Air Traffic Controller. 

[@iglooo102videos]

Everything is in perspective now. hahaha

[@sadikmeah4057]

iglooo102 There are other plausible explanation for this childish rant but this seems like the obvious one.

[@Wildstar40]

You Tube = Great ... Your comment = Priceless !

[@brain208]

That was the best

[@donnaviestenz7773]

Lol lol lol!!!!

[@10kanojias]

Respect ATC. Their jobs are way more complicated than us pilots. That was uncalled for by Delta 2422

[@YodaWasSith]

Agreed. Captain Happy needs to work on the "happy" part and realize that it's his responsibility to know the taxi-ways and go the right way when told what to do.

[@sherifbatawy]

Wow that pilot needs to adjust his Attitude..Indicator

[@louist103]

Egyptian Doctor facepalm. But still funny

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Right! HIS AI, not the aircraft AI!

[@kommandant.357]

@@louist103 your name is awesome

[@RailroadGuy49]

I especially liked it when ATC sounded like he was laughing a little after the Capt Happy comment.

[@AppealPlay]

"settle down captain happy" :D

[@tjfSIM]

Crikey, very rare to hear a pilot behaving so unprofessionally - I hope this was reported.

[@HDCOCKPITSCENES]

Not so rare when you fly

[@MileHighClub211]

HD-COCKPIT SCENES Your exactly right. It never fails. Everytime I strap into the airplane, there's always that captain happy.

[@HDCOCKPITSCENES]

Hahaha

[@MileHighClub211]

***** Controllers with poor attitudes are certainly not a rarity if you have flown in the vicinity of any major airport. Their occupation is quite stressful, but hey, so is ours. Only 1% of the population can say they've earned their wings. A career in aviation is not for the faint of heart.

[@cdnkush5942]

settle down captain happy lmao

[@petrolekh]

That pilot must have been on his period. That was completely unprovoked.

[@petrolekh]

Feminazi please. Go look for reasons to be persecuted somewhere else.

[@petrolekh]

Aren't modern feminazis just mentally defective people whose full time job it is to seek out reasons to feel indignant? You're basically redundant.

[@petrolekh]

Mancheeze Pls, I love the women in my family and my own wife and daughters. You're not going to create hatred between us.

[@jetroar17]

Mancheeze It appears that he has. You got burnt.

[@ZeCockOfTheWalk]

Mancheeze oh my god both of you shut up.

[@kulter20]

Haha I laughed at this, especially when the other pilot came in and was like: ''Settle down, captain Happy''.

[@unapro3]

I you listen to the ATC, he is trying really hard not to laugh after "settle down Captain Happy" as well....

[@saml6084]

doubt you even know what that means, trying to sound all grown-up like.

[@PremiumFuelOnly]

Captain must be going thru a nasty divorce...

[@theRealAV8r]

guess his (ex) wife had an 'attitude' too

[@stulosophy]

Note to self: Always make sure that Captain Happy isn't my pilot.

[@PPC4]

Nothing funny about that. Remember the KLM, Pan am incident at teneriffe. This pilot should need reporting as a result. But hey i'm no aviation expert.

[@PraetorianPhalanx]

Yeah well... that pilot isn't with us anymore due to that horrible incident.

[@maryannredfern5954]

Which HE caused with his bad attitude.

[@karlowagstaffe7396]

Pilots like this should not be allowed to fly because they are a danger to souls on board and on the ground. Hopefully this was reported.

[@BATBrandonT]

Just because the pilot is having a bad day doesn't mean he should get fired

[@UKLifeCoaching]

***** Sherlock.

[@AviationJeremy]

"Settle down Captain Happy" Love it!

[@adamplanefan]

Settle down captain happy. I'm gonna use this on vatsim next time some pilot goes berserk in Sydney :D

[@roguishpaladin]

Adam Hart So did you, and how'd it turn out?

[@GrimReaper-bv9ls]

roguishpaladin Yeah lol how's it been?

[@Kaipeternicolas]

ATC didn't do anything wrong imo. Captain was sitting in a glass house.

[@rogerwilco2]

The pilot makes a mistake and then gets angry and blames it on someone else. I used to have a colleague like that. I don't think people with that mindset should be flying large passenger planes.

[@yveswouters4075]

I realy hope this was the last day in ANY cockpit for "Captain Happy"...

[@yveswouters4075]

***** that's alot of "fucks" in your reply.let's hope that it's only in your langue and not in the cockpit it happens this much :-)

[@rustygates3367]

Maybe the pilot didn't like the ATC's orientation to the horizon?

[@alixena9340]

"Doesn't play nicely with other children"

[@AvonleaMontague]

hahahahah That Captain Happy line is awesome.

[@AvonleaMontague]

And that subtle laugh

[@Yusuf-vw8bu]

No way that is you

[@mr.unicorn8847]

I like how another pilot confirms if he's supposed to be on Lima or Mike XD

[@MrJannik45]

if you're being emotional like that as a pilot you shouldn't be a pilot

[@ByronClips]

In my non-professional and humble opinion, the ATC was just trying to prevent a mistake. The captain wasted a lot of air time there. I particularly loved the other pilot siding with ATC :)

[@jsswilliams2804]

"I make a mistake every 2 to 3 minutes" Maybe he shouldn't be a pilot

[@LogiWanKenobi]

Indeed. Lucky he's still flying and not on an impact course with the ground... Assholes should NOT be pilots.

[@jo-oy4vj]

"settle down captain happy" xD

[@180bidder]

On his third divorce no doubt

[@benrotstein]

"i make a mistake every 2 to 3 minutes but my attitude is not like yours" lol

[@Persephone_]

What a rude pilot!

[@henrychan1039]

Another pilot that is not satisfied with his salary…

[@gerardmoran9560]

I started flying for Delta in 1988. 99.9% of the guys went out of their way to be professional and considerate with other workers- cabin crew, gate agents, ground crew and ATC. Atlanta ATC and Delta guys are especially fraternal. If my first officer pulled that I'd request taxi back to the gate and call crew scheduling. If it was the captain on the radio, I pity his F/O.

[@gerardmoran9560]

***** Thank God I never had to fly with someone who sounds like a maladjusted, angry 14 year old.

[@MechaBlock]

Isn't the pilot suppose to request directions if he needs them, and also be familiar with the airport layout as part of preflight? Why is he yelling at the controller about directions?

[@merlinpwnz1]

***** Talking in caps doesn't make you look cool.

[@erauprcwa]

***** The pilots said they weren't on Mike, they were on Lima about to taxi onto Mike. Then the pilot got into a rant about not being told where to go, which is not ATC's responsibility, if you didn't request a progressive taxi. The controller was pretty clear on what taxiways the pilots needed to be on, end of discussion.

[@rmachayes]

No matter where you go, what you see or who you encounter, there is always one out there to make your day. Controllers don't get paid enough.

[@captaincessna7897]

How dare that controller be calm and polite! NOT!

[@GetOutsideYourself]

Anybody know if the pilot was reprimanded?

[@jamesrichardson9026]

I wouldn’t want to fly with the guy who makes a mistake every 2-3 minutes that’s a very precise figure 😂😂

[@wk9531]

The ATC kept his cool while the pilot was being an ass.

[@patrice130895]

The other pilot stay my hero !

[@mistofoles]

Kinda reminds of that movie "AIRPLANE"....Announcer 1: "The red zone is for unloading only." Announcer 2: "No the white zone is for unloading." Announcer 1: "Look, don't give me your "White zone" shit, Patty...."

[@ZzmemeguyzZ]

Hahaha I remember how they were fighting throughout the whole intro in the background ahahaha

[@jjohnston94]

And how it eventually deteriorated into, "I know what this is really about. You want me to have an abortion."

[@bobbypaluga4346]

That could only be the result of an argument with his wife when he left the house, I know the symptoms been there many times.

[@Gamebreaker08]

His wife is probably banging a black baggage handler she met at his company picnic. LOL

[@NicoleKe]

Gamebreaker08 Why does his skin color make a difference?

[@ProNerdChannel]

Not very professional of the captain.

[@Guywithcrazyideas]

That pilot must have a throbbing hemorrhoid.

[@jetskijay1955]

Guywithcrazyideas hahahhaha first time I've ever heard that one. Well played!

[@ihavenolifebutilikeboobsth6035]

The FAA needs to add "Assholery" to the list of hazardous attitudes.

[@asdaspotas]

"my attitude is not like yours" oh the irony

[@mcd1727]

He wanted the shotgun seat and the first officer would not give it up.

[@OrinokawaMizuki]

A Traffic Controller's Role is to Control Traffic, to manipulate it. And if necessary, intentionally give false information. As it can be seen in the clip, that particular controller was unable to control that particular element of the traffic. | The issue is this: 2422 was told to follow the MD88 to go to Mike, but the MD88 gone to Lima instead. Result? 2422 ended up in Lima. | The MD88 seems to be getting special treatment here.

[@leonbain6482]

Did he say that he makes a mistake every 2 to 3 MINUTES? WTF? Is it me or did he seem unable to coordinate his sentences? Cognitive problems all the way around this guy!

[@AlfOfAllTrades]

"Delta 2422, taxi back to gate. I will come down and meet you there. In the meantime you can tell your passengers that your arrogance has made you about an hour late, at best."

[@tlent55]

I work in the airline industry and I know first hand just how stressful it can be, We all have our moments, and sometimes we just need a kick in the right direction to get us back on course. The "captain happy" comment was probably just the comic relief he needed. Cracks me up.

[@Philzifyy]

That pilot on the other frequency "settle down captain happy" that made me giggle

[@berthje7201]

"I have a number for you", :)

[@NicoleKe]

"Settle down Captain Happy." 😂😃👍

[@swanlove2002]

"Looks like you joinin' Lima."

[@Hawktotalwar]

all the captain fault, the atc just doesn't want to mess up the sequence because it makes life harder for everyone in the airport

[@mesahatesayou]

Lol "Settle down Captain Happy" what a fucking champion that guy is hilarious

[@davidrichter3696]

I never get tired of hearing this one

[@SuperPercy66]

Ohhh blimey ladies...out with your handbags!

[@jtveg]

The pilot had the attitude not the controller.....lol.... I wouldn't want to be flying with him on that day.

[@commonsense31]

That pilot should get a slap in the face. And wake up to reality

[@joeycarr1398]

Pilot is stressed. He probably got a personality emotional issue.

[@sonitomi]

pilot must follow instruction from ATC..don't be like a "king" in airport

[@coriscotupi]

You'd think that everyone who flies loves their job. This pilot appears to think he is underpayed, overrworked, the world is against him and as already mentioned, his wife is going out with an air traffic controller. Clearly he wants another life and his attitude on the radio shows it. Tough luck, bitch. Shut up and fly.

[@donovanmaxwell]

He's welcome to join me any time to see what overworked and underpayed is really like.

[@My737Channel]

Thank you, golfcharlie for an interesting post, and also for your comments. The answer to your question is Adobe Premiere. Take care.

[@iglooo102videos]

Hahahahahaha.settle down captain happy.hahahahaha That captain is great

[@wolf2351]

What attitude.....that atc controller said nothing wrong. The pilot with the 2 x 4 on his shoulder needs a snickers bar.

[@cookies2529]

The ATC controller was BLACK. That's why that white racist piece of shit pilot was talking to him like that.

[@rexspencer5107]

Everyone from Delta is rude!!

[@patton303]

Good Morning! I SAID GOOD MORNING!

[@Silligk]

Theres always that one guy...captain happy lmao

[@CivilAviation1]

Seems like mr. Delta has an attitude problem.

[@leannestrong1000]

It sounds like this pilot is the one with the attitude.

[@Planesandmoreplanes]

And that's when Bob lost his job

[@gbigsangle3044]

A pilot license is synonymous with a pilot certificate. All pilot licenses/certifications have a set of 'privileges' associated. A pilot can also gain add-ons, endorsements, and ratings. A 'type rating' is required for aircraft over 12,500, jet and/or turbine powered. If a pilot violates the rules the license/certificate is revoked and all subsequent ratings and endorsements are also lost.

[@gbigsangle3044]

Nope. PPL Private Pilot License. SPL Sport License. CL Commercial License. There are licenses and ratings. For example, you are a PPL with an IR Instrument Rating. Aircraft are certificated...

[@gbigsangle3044]

And since license is synonomous with certificate. Certs can also be revoked.

[@thyagoEverett]

I wanna see him say that to atc while flying lol

[@maxsdad538]

Captain Happy... love it!

[@BrotherSecretary]

Captain Happy needs an enema.

[@m3lomah287]

Its the pilot's mistake.

[@vossejongk]

Lots of pilots on here. Question: I'm 24. Is it still possible (aka not starting when i was still in school, but also jobs available) to become a pilot?

[@EricBlues]

Plenty get in the pilot thing in their 40s. Just go for it, and fly safe.

[@braddelisle9717]

Absolutely. Age only matters if you want to be an airline pilot and even then its only a forced retirement at 65. Try and line up a time building job while you're in training. I built my time flying scenic tours around the Grand Canyon, Vegas, Lake Powell, Monument Valley and so on. It was a great way to build some time. There's lots of other great ways too like banner towing, aerial mapping, flight instructing, skydive operations etc. Depending on what jobs you get you can get from no time to being a regional airline co-pilot within a few years of getting your commercial license.

[@vossejongk]

thanks!

[@headfella]

Wonder if company ever got to hear this? Wonder if capt. Grumpy is still employed or waiting on tables?
