What Happened

[duf]

leadingedge,
Every school is no guaranties... the fine print is there.

You can have free cable... as soon as i get the 80 or so other people wanting the same, to leave me alone

 

[Deep Throat II]

Duf check your PM's

 

[Over-Talk]

Hey Deep Throat and Duf
Check PMs

 

[leadingedge]

Mr Throat 2 and Throat 1,

The statement that life has no guarentees is completely correct, this is why man was given a brain so that he could accumulate information and not fall into pitfalls as he goes. As a general statement directed at a non specific subject, fine, you are correct.

However, once you introduce a factor like $50,000, then one would expect that self preservation and risk management would kick in, obviously the thrill of flight out balances this fact.

So the flight school plan is still on . EASY MONEY , with no guarantees, and a internet forum that spreads misleading information for free.

anybody want to buy stock, because we as share holders are bound to get rich quick!

Yipee!!!!

Oh and duf, not to point out the obvious but, there is a reason for the small print....

 

[leadingedge]

Overtalk, are you manuevering outside the transparent process? Where I come from this is called conspiracy or even worse?, another attribute of the industry that needs attention.

Try to win the argument at face value, you could also copy this PM to me but ......?

 

[Deep Throat II]

As NELLY would say "it's gettin' hot in Here"

 

[leadingedge]

Who is NELLY?

 

[leadingedge]

Looks like everybody quit? ahhhh.

Try to win an argument based on merit, be honest, provide what insight you can even if it is not always politically correct? Don't be afraid to voice your opinion to whomever, these are the values that give us US freedoms and why we are the envy of the world today.

Good luck Duf, your going to need it! As for Throat 1 and 2 , try to look at the abstract and don't be so focused on the obvious.

NEXT!

leadingedge,
Why would a school put in large print/front center, that the school doesn't guarantee employment? When I say fine print, I mean, it is linked (and not hidden) on an informative website.
I don't need a school to guarantee I'll get a job. I just need them to show me how to fly the damn 'steel mosquito'.
I can guarantee I'll get myself the job.
(no University degree with a 2.8 and all)

leadingedge, I ask you this:
How is the industry going to train new pilots?
Huh?

Mr. Dufster, call sign "FUD"

Dude, (is that cool?MS,OT,CD,HM,DT1,DT2,and Ryan? ) I and everyone in the industry can see that you have decided to become a pilot. I am suggesting that you keep your present job = cashflow, continue taking in all the different opinions being expressed, and find a hole! You are rushing! For 50K cash whammo!, there is bound to be a cash strapped operator where you could possibly buy into a 206 and get your license at the same time and have something to show for it after. I'm saying don't limit your possibilities with the "no guarantees bullshit" and make a better informed choice. Take your time , think and act like a 70 year old!

What you should be looking for is a connection with a company that uses Helicopters( more hours per year the better), get a job there? and have a buddy with a Jetranger and a class 2. Place your self ala strategic, and make allowances for safety and security.

By participation in this forum maybe you are doing just that?

Take your time young man.

Good luck in your endeavors

You haven't got a clue how much time I have been reading/ visiting people on this topic. I appreciate your advice though...

Leadingedge, I think I know who you are.
I had a convo in another thread entitled "deteriorating industry standards" with a gentleman working in the gulf islands area.

You two have all the EXACT same spelling mistakes. like "MAYBEE"

Oh sh##, You never got to read that thread. You joined up here after it was pulled..
Can't be the same person.
MAYBEE it is just purely coincidence, dude.

 

[leadingedge]

You must be mistaken.

Good luck

 

[Deep Throat II]

From this day forward and to save all of us from having to hit all those keys "Deteriorating Industry Standards" shall now be known as DIS anyone second the motion.

Leadingedge-Bleedvalve are you guys talking to each other or do you really, just have a kind of Telepathy kind of thing on the go.

This is some scary stuff we are witnessing here Gents, sure to be good fodder for days, weeks even months to come.

Mr. Valve

I left a very important lesson out. Most of all, be kind. Life is a very short time for those of us who understand.
