What a dummy! Does he not know the the MEL (minimum equipment list) specifies at least one and preferably two pee bottles with lids that can be resealed? More for longer trips. Rank amateur!

I keep many empty bottles in my truck. It is a habit from doing so many years of surveillance and now they come in handy for personal or professional reasons. Just never drink a yellow Gatorade you find in my truck!

Flew with a Braniff guy once in the late 70s. Former Navyator.

Him: "Ooops. forgot that flair thing again..."

Me: "Oh, the old, "Flare to land, squat to pee" Zoomie thing eh?" Nah. I love it, can we do it again?!"

Loved the tri-motors.

An airsick bag works well.

Just don't hold it outside the window of Cessna, if bent on getting rid of the bag.

Heard a story from a helicopter pilot that we frequently flied with of a passenger in a small plane taking a poop in a dunkin donuts box in the air. The smell got so bad, the pilot had to land at the next available field. Funny, but possible urban legend.

If my only engine had quit on me and I just made a successful landing...I'd probably have to take a piss pretty badly too. And wouldn't really care who filmed it. LOL
