Aviation Cartoons by Cap'n Aux!

Guess what?  In addition to flyin' planes n writin' novels, Cap'n Aux likes to doodle!  Here's some of my best (my opinion, lol!) . . . 

I got the inspiration for this following cartoon from the Talking Heads song, "Moonrock," in which I—mistakenly—thought the lyrics were, "I got a rock in my boot!"

"Designated DRUNK driver."

"Close Encounters of the FOURTH kind."

Sometimes I think my cartoons are a bit too subtle for most people.  The following was inspired by Truman's famous desk sign, "The Buck Stops Here"—as in, no more "passing the buck," lay the blame on me!  But for greedy corporate CEO's . . . 

"The BUCKS (plural) stop here."

"Pilot Recycling" program.  Get it?

"Due to my brilliant powers of deduction, I have determined that the murderer is . . ."

I always thought those NEED HELP! signs in cars were stupid.  But I could use this one!

 WARNING! F-BOMB AHEAD!

If you're offended, or the kiddies are watching, skip the next cartoon!

A long time ago, I found a funny set of mock airline briefing cards that I thought I'd share with you.  I didn't draw or make them, but enjoy!

 

And finally, here's a recent cartoon I drew for my vid, "Zen and the Art of Landing."

Just for fun, here's the vid!:

This post is dedicated to the memory of my parents, Lois and Richard;

Dad would have been 89 this month.  

Momma Lois and Daddy Richard

My parents always encouraged me in everything I did, from flying to writing and drawing.  And they had a wonderful sense of humor!

PS....

A special shout-out to Chris over at JetHead (http://jethead.wordpress.com) for his wonderful airline cartoons.  He truly has a great style and talent!
