KRAZY KAREN!!
They’re a private company. And if they want to land the plane and kick you off, and forbid you from flying on their planes again, that is their right. You don’t like it? Charter your own plane.

Birkenstocks
I thought she looked like a quack head!
I do wonder what became of that particular ex girlfriend of mine.
But, I bet, not enough to actually try to track her down!
Wondering if I need extra security due to her being nearby.
I wonder if that was special FAA approved aircraft duct tape?
“I give her a cat-lady rating of 3.5 on a scale of 5.”
why so low? because she wasn’t wearing a Mumu and rubber clogs?
Haha good story! But the fronts are just escape hatches and they open outward into the slipstream. I’d say its impossible to open it more than a few inches in flight. Like opening your car door at 200 mph. I was a Flight Engineer on them C-23’s in the Army NG. Now the back doors you can open in flight! Maybe it was a back one. I had a pilot get the craps and we didn’t have a toilet onboard, just a bucket... so he poops in a trash bag placed in the bucket. Next thing I know, there was a huge WOOoooshhh of air and a bunch of banging in the back. Well he thought he would just open the door and toss out the bag o shit. The back door is a bi-fold door and you have to lock it to solid door with a bar to open it in flight. So it was just swinging around beating the crap out of him! No parachute, no monkey safety harness... Just him and a bag of shit. So I ran back and we both got the door closed... lol it was crazy and funny. 18,000’ over the Rockies! He must have been Hypoxic.
I went to Iraq with the Sherpa in 03-04 and we contemplated hanging machine gun “Nam” style from the back doors. That didn’t happen but it would have been fun. Low (25’-250’) and fast was our tactic. Good times... Great airplane!
“I wonder if that was special FAA approved aircraft duct tape?”
In the Army Aviation world we called it 100 mile-n-hour tape.
Turning No, No, No

Mum, Mum, Mum
For decades.
No. The front door on the right side of the shorts opened front to back and could absolutely be opened inflight. The back doors opened back to front and could not be opened inflight. I flew on them for 6 years- google them and you can see the hinges are on the back side of the doors, closest to the back of the plane.
Also, when the door was opened, it slammed so hard against the side of the plane it sounded like an explosion according to the pilots. The metal was twisted where the door hit the side of the plane.
And crazy story!!! I bet you have so many more!!! I sure miss being around airline people!!!
I was once called out to a drilling rig on the North Slope of Alaska to pick up a guy who was having a psychotic break. When I arrived in the ambulance the rig crew had him essentially mummified with duct tape strapped to an office chair. “You want us to unwrap him Doc?” “No, that’ll do just fine.” I didn’t unwrap him until he had 2mg of Haldol on board and he was much calmer then...
And here I thought it would be Nanzi P.
If it moves, and it’s not supposed to - duct tape.
If it doesn’t move and is supposed to - WD40.
I flew on C-23B... B+, and C’s. They were a merger of a 360 and 330. I forget which civilian model had the twin tail, but they chopped it off and switched it to the better /newer airframe. Had a large ramp door, and two side doors in the back. Doors swung in, so we could open in flight to drop paratroops. Rampdoor swung both ways. There was a large cargo door on the front left, and two window hatches in the front. Maybe they did open like you said. I gotta look at my old pics.. its been 18 years.
Im supprised that door didnt rip off and take out an engine or something!
AHHHahaha You’re right! The widow / hatchs did open to the back. Hahah We didnt have a door. Thats right where I sat too First row, right side.
That’s a slippery slope. You ok worth them banning people just because they want to?
Sad, sad, sad.
And I do charter the airplane on occasion. Much better than first class where I normally set.
