watched the first fifteen minutes and just couldn't stomach the drama and hype... my$.02

i quit in '94 because of the starvation wages and bullshit.... it saddens me that nothing has changed in 17 years.......

doc, i used to play piano in a whorehouse. are you hiring?!

a good friend of mine worked at tim's for one shift and quit at the end of it.. they paid him in donuts!! true story!!

totally not what i'd hoped for..... flying clapped out pieces of crap through weather for no money for owners that couldn't care less didn't make my time in aviation fun, so i chose a different career path

as an r/c freak(i no longer fly full size), i estimate there is $40000-$50000 tied up in that thing. the turbines alone are around $5000 each times four, plus all the electronics.....

i was offered a position driving for them a few months ago. they train you(and pay you while you're being trained). the pay ranges from $50000 and tops off around $70000.way more than i ever made flying. i turned it down because of other comittments, am still considering it for next year(if the econ...

i don't fly full size anymore(atpl and 3000 hrs), but still get my fix flying r/c. i have one that does 160knots straight and level(that really gets the adrenaline flowing!)

that airplane was on the cover of a canadian flying magazine(gettin' old and cant remember the name) about 25 years ago. i have about 50 hours on a canuck and they are a real joy to fly

check your shoelaces... one jumper tied my running shoes together with enough slack so that i could still move the rudders, but fell on my arse getting out of the plane i was totally embarassed, but still got a good laugh out of it...

i quit flying 15 years ago for crap like that and it still hasn't changed....

hey dude. i have a 172M manual you can have for free if that is any good to you. i live on the west mountain. i opened my flight bag for the first time in 7 years with my atpl just sitting there beside the manual.

mcdonalds. man, i just spit my tea all oner the keyboard!

omygawd i needed that!!

it doesn't make sense. i was offered a job driving for go transit(turned it down) at almost $50,000 a year plus paid training. took years and big$ to get my atpl and the best year ever i made $20,000 flying full time

i have a friend in yhm working on a 22' super connie. as an avid rc guy, there is really only one rule and that is they all crash eventually(blew two up last weekend)

sold my car two years ago(we now have one car in the family), sold my beloved honda nighthawk last month. now i cycle everywhere and the oil companies can go fuc@ themselves. if everyone did this, demand would plummet and prices would drop. my$.02

used to fly CF-TIT , cherokee 140 in yhm in the early 80's

when i instructed(and now when i teach piano on the side), i would tell all new students that this is my work and not a hobby and that i would let the first cancelled appointment go and after that i would charge a fee(usually one hour) regardless of the reason. i remember one time that that i had ei...

funny that you would say that motorcycles are safer... i put approx 65,000kms on my nighthawk since 2000(sold it last week ) and not a scratch the whole time. bicycling to work in january(rode all year round)i hit a patch of ice.. bruised ribs, fractured right hand... wasn't pretty!

man, they just don't make 'em like that anymore.. i still miss my'88 Town Car

hey G3, yes, i did!!

when i started instructing in hamilton in '89-90 i started teaching this young business man. after about ten hours we were sitting down with a coffee and chatting and he told me he was one of the survivors of that crash. i almost fell off my chair as it was huge news at the time. being a self employ...

i actually am a piano player in a whorehouse....
