All these youngsters flying some pretty expensive equipment !!
Just remember that as you get older, you must never pass by a urinal, never trust a fart and never ignore a hard on.

oh darnnn... why always compare? it seems we love it and hate it at the same time because it makes us feel better or worse... but since i'm on this page why not contribute to the forum... 29 and caravan driver after 11 years of flying experience.

Yes, that's exactly what it is you fackin idiot.

Wow!

That age 25 is sure coming out!! You might try lightening up a bit instead of holding on to your credentials so tight. Did you pay for that lear job in addition to that "aerospace science" degree?

No more than what's reflecting from your words.

pachanga - where did you go for that degree? I only know of 2 schools in Canada with aerospace programs and I went to one of them for a time

Pachanga · Post by **Pachanga** » Tue Jul 26, 2005 9:42 pm

I went to the US for mine. Now guess which school!

LearJetPilotJock,

Never count other people's money and never compare what they fly with what you fly. An airplane is just a piece of metal and money is just fancy paper. Be happy with what you have and what you do, and you'll enjoy it more.

If Pachanga is flying left seat on a Lear at 25, that's great!!! Anyone would be delighted to be in that position.

Life is not summed up by an aviation resume.

It's actually a 35, he was commenting on my age when he said 25!

I give this sentence great merit but it's unfortunate that too many seem to think along these lines.

Just remember getting old is mandatory but growing up is optional!!!

47 going on 25 in my mind but my body quite frequently tells me otherwise.

Learjetpilotjock · Post by **Learjetpilotjock** » Wed Jul 27, 2005 8:00 am

I agree with the above. Although it is unfortunate at times when not the best person advances in the industry because of financial backing. In other industries like say my degree in Engineering, people generally pay the same amounts for their education and jobs at the end are based on how well you did in school and obviously personality. You do not pay money for your next job.

Now in the aviation industry you see people trying to basically "cheat" the industry and try to pull ahead of others because they take advantage of those companies that make you pay??!! to work for them and for exchange get some hours.

Then these people start bragging how far they have come in the industry when you got people that have much less go up North to a ramp with engineering degrees to go for a dream.

Me, I am now 31 on a Lear and have a resume full of life experience that has been earned through lots of hard work, sweat and flying not $$$.
