Urine-collecting briefs for pilots

Seen here is the "Advanced Mission Extender Device." No, no, no. It's not what the name makes you think. It's actually a garment that allows pilots to pee during long flights. Joel has more on "taking the 'p' out of 'pilots'" over at Boing Boing Gadgets.

No need for these - there's nothing wrong with piddlepaks.

What happened to the Gentleman Equestrian's Companion, invented I don't know, two centuries ago?

(For the non-horsey set, a GEC is basically a rubber hose going to a flask strapped to one's leg.)

Any fan of MST3K is already familiar with "poopie-suits."

All this piss talk is squicking me out. Can we have a unicorn chaser? (They pee rainbows.)

#4: I believe this is also called a trucker's tube. You know, for those Semi drivers on long hauls.

CS:S players have been known to use these too.

"Don't crap in your hand, crap in your poopy suit!
You'll feel relief filling your briefs!"

So the guy at the grocery store in the post below this was just ringing out a pair of these shorts.

They need to market this for truckers.

whatever happened to that thing that they used to have on all the planes ...

... called "autopilot" ... ?

unless the urine is taken elsewhere, i could see a small problem the instant the g-suit inflated.

and how does this work for female pilots again?

There is a similar product called Stadium Pal which was reviewed by the author David Sedaris on the Dave Letterman show. It can be purchased online..

#16 there are men's and women's models. But I wonder what you do when stuff needs to come out the other end. Sometime, that kind is even harder to hold in than the liquid type.

if you have to bail in mid-Pacific, keep in mind that urine and mammal poop is just as tasty as blood. Just sayin'.
