hmmmm....

Not knowing that a small airport 2,000nm from my home base no longer exists,

or,

being a cookie pusher and taking it from a pilot but knowing that an airport that I can't fly to just closed...

You have your head up the Pilot's ass?

Hey I got an idea, how about we put all the secretive words and ways to inform ATC about a hijacking, on a public forum!!!! The whole reason that most of you weren't informed of this is because a hijacking in a two-seat plane is usually considered a back seat driver. The reason no Air Canada pilots ...

Corn-shoot... You know this may be a shot in the dark but between your attitude and your handle, I think I have you figured out. You're a stewardess... sorry, flight attendant who is taking it from a pilot aren't you. Don't be bitter at me for being able to fly to amazing places like Chicago and New...

[quote] Hey Cat, I don't mean to come down on you, I mean the pic's that you posted are crazy and I wish I could have that opportunity someday too. It's good to see you loosening up with your posts. I get so sick of this forum's constant whining and immediate attempts by computer nerds like corn-hol...

Yes Corn-shoot maybe I should remove myself from my life of girls, beer and adventure and spend more time with my head posed in front of a computer screen, waiting for someone to say something. This way I can make some lame ass comment to make myself feel like I am better than them before I retire t...

That sucks dude, didn't even hear about it. I was planning a flight there in a couple of months, thanks for the heads up. What happend to all the planes that were stranded on the field? I was there a couple months ago... too hazy to see the field from the Sears tower. Woulda been quite the shock to ...

Okay ., Let me be more specific than my last post. If you want to let a person fly your plane while you're in the right or rear seat, how much faith do you have to have in that person. Now say you have the same situation but you're standing on the ground and that same person is now alone in your pla...

Just wondering what the deal with T.O.'s Island Airport is? Got an e-mail from aerotraining regarding saving the airport by not allowing a proposal to go through that would ban building a bridge. What difference would this make, I read the proposal don't really understand what a bridge would do. Me ...

.... very, very, bitter yes. Every other post you put up involves a rant about TC. I'm not saying that its unjustified but it definately conveys a very bitter attitude. The fact is, about 90% of the people on this board realise that ianwhite is completely ignoring the rules. Ignore the rules and you...

Here is a little bit of info to all the people wishing to get seaplane training in Canada. I have learned from experience that there are very few, if any operators in the country that actually allow the students to be the sole occupant of the aircraft. even though this a requirement by TC, in the r...

An FSS is not a controller!! He doesn't have the authority to control you, only give advasories as was stated earlier. As far as conflicts a departing aircraft can't be cleared for take off unless the preceding is turned clear of the departure path or there is no possibility of the departing aircraf...

Not wanting to be a total smartass I said I thought the Mackenzie or the St Lawrence were larger I could be wrong though. Knowing full well im right. Then he states "im a geography major want to bet" So I went big and said a months wage wich wasnt all that much because he payed 50 bucks a day. He b...

How about we wrap this thread up with explanations as to the stupidity of two posters found within: One: CYYZ Please hold the critisism. Poor CYYZ flunked out of Bi 11 and since then learned how to adhere a bandaid to his lower... um... what do you call that thing attatched to the bottom of my arm? ...

[ Wow do you ever know how to flog a dead horse. If this is the basis of your argument why don't you listen to what everyone is telling you and admit that you're a dumbass. Seems to me that the uneducated are just as defensive as the educated regarding their stupidity... you're living proof. Now sh...

Your stats are correct 2B, but in most cases a dumbarse without a PhD can admit he's a dumbarse, but a person with higher "education" can't comprehend they're a moron because they have a piece of magical paper. Furthermore, they'll try to defend themselves with the old excuse, oh that wasn't my fie...

This forum makes me sick!! A fellow pilot just died. period. If he made a wrong descision he has been punished for it. For you a**holes to slag him after he has passed on is disgraceful and disgusting. I am ashamed to even read this. I have lost close personal friends, some of whom made bad descisio...

need to hold onto them for four years of intesive coarses I take it english is not one of these intensive courses? Exactly what I was talking about!!!! You can't seem to come up with a good opinion of your own so you pick 1 word out of 10,000 and provide conclusive proof that people with an educati...

Third, you're right, I don't know how many of those 180,000 were born millionares, but don't you think that just the fact that they have the education underlines its importance. Hardly; if , for arguments sake, 175,000 of them were born into money, leaving aside the 5,000 or so who got lucky at 649...

CYYZ... That's the only reason we have doctors and lawyers? I thought the purpose we have them was to help people. Hmmm maybe most of them are bigger assholes than I thought. But seriously, level of education isn't the only meathod of determining pay level. Responsibility, risk and skill level. Res...

CYYZ... What the hell are you on??? what are you saying?? I'd be able to operate on you??? Are you really this F$#*ed?? Didn't you have kids in school that you dreaded getting partnered with for projects? You'd end up correcting all of their mistakes and do twice the work! We aren't all equals!!! I ...

Difficult in this case is a relative term. While your typical trades man probably can't write a good thesis, your average doctor can't figure out how to put up drywall despite my best teachings. Paid work is just that - its work. Or why do you think most kids with money like to go to school? When w...

Ontario, ROFL. 5-7 years ago, everyone failled the Bar Exam. The thing is that the highest marks "pass." So we have 20 "lawyers" because the bar is a scam. The highest marks pass... so where does this exam start becoming a scam? The smartest most dedicated move on in their education once again prov...

I'd like to point out that I don't put myself on a higher horse than my co-workers because I have an education. Unfortunately a lot of my co-workers who found out that I have a BA suddenly developed their own attitudes towards me. I was suddenly laughed at whenever I made a simple mistake and everyo...

Greenwich said: So essentially you are saying that a bunch of high school graduates may have done a better job with A/C than Milton and his current group of Lawyers, MBA's, Business School grads, etc. Not likely! One of the problems with pilots is that we all live in our own little world and have v...

Both of them also require a significant amount of effort on the individual getting them, they prove you have good learning skills, and lastly they also give you a marketable skill that can be useful in the aviation world. But there is one major difference between them and a University degree: cost....
