You'd think if this were such an issue as you're making it out to be, airlines wouldn't allow food and drink in the cockpit. I'm sure the unions would love that, ehh?

No way she even know how to turn on the oven...
After 26 years of years of living in DFW/AUS/DCA and dating several FA's over the years...it is not so hard to tell.
This particular type of women is endemic to Dallas...whether she is an FA or not.

To the original poster. "get a life!". People have to eat. With wars in the middle east, gas prices sky high global warming you are concerned about pilots eating!
Did you actually see them eating while the palne was inflight. I bet not. And even if you did so what. The systems you ware so concerned about are rendundant you know. Now if they had a 1/5 of scotch or a bud in the cockpit, yes you would have somethig to yap about. Bet you did not know quite a few airlines do not feed the crew, except for leftovers from the main service.
Look on a strictly factual basis people have to eat. If they do not they could get low blood sugar and fail to function at peak efficiency. Would you want a cockpit crew like that?

DallasAudiGuy is 6'7" and has been written up (15 minutes of fame post) as having issues with being on the 'no fly' list.
There are many profiles we can use. Dallas Hair, Mall Hair (for NJ), Valley Girl or ... insert local phrase here.
I enjoy predicting which FAs will burn the biscuits (or serve them raw) .. then again we have the issue with FAs who burn the nuts ... but that is another profile I will not be getting into at this point!

No... Jon...sit!
en·dem·ic Pronunciation (n-dmk)
adj.
1. Prevalent in or peculiar to a particular locality, region, or people
Since so many AA FA's are here in Dallas, and since so many of them seem to be on the right side of the seniority curve, I was only observing.
I am happily engaged to a wonderful woman. That type never interested me, but after being single in Dallas for 6 years, I can tell you that they are ENDEMIC to Dallas...
I wonder how many of the complaints about FA's posted here are the Dallas based ones I observe?

Hey .. per your 15 minutes article .. you is a consultant which certainly makes you non-dumb.
Probably makes you expensive also!
Maybe you should post your next few international trips .. so we know when a flight gets diverted that you are on it is because of your no-fly status!??

And why don't I change my name to JonDFW?
And I deny that consultancy in any way is an indicator of intelligence...
Next OCONUS trips are DFW-LAX-HNL next week Then DFW-FRA and DFW-KIX-OKA in September
