Bogus pilots

[Amish RakeFight]

These stories are quite entertaining. Why is it that one would fabircate such brazenly blatant lies. There must be some serious self-esteem issues dwelling in these individuals. Their lives must be so boring that they need to invent tales of being a pilot. Heh.

A fool proof way to find out if someone is to ask to see their wallet. If its empty the are probably a pilot.

Damn...I don't even carry a wallet...

 

[rjpilot7667]

dang...I don't even carry a wallet...

Yep...he's a pilot.

 

[pilotpat]

LOL! I've got a couple dollar bills for the Vegas strip clubs, though...does that count?

 

[say again]

I once flew with a guy who had more stories than Stephen King, and they were all BS and F-ing hilarious!! First he was a helo pilot in the army, and was on the helo that inspired the movie Black Hawk Down. OK. Then he left the Army and flew F-14's. He was an ace in the original Desert Storm and accumilated over 2000hrs (for later). He needs to get his timeline straight first off. The best is when he was flying for the CIA and how he stole all these types of A/C down in Mexico and Central America, but he couldn't get into the specifics of the ops. As we're flying (a Navajo) he proceeds to tell me that he has all of these in for jetBlue. Great, hook me up with some names. He said a few and it turned out they never existed. The reason why he wasn't working there yet - he said he needed more jet time- whatever happened to all that F-14 time?? There are many more but cant seem to remember them now.

Once I am interviewing a guy, he tells me he flew F-14's in the Navy, I ask What CVW were you in. He told me he did not belong in the wing he flew off of the Enterprize. I had been on the Enterprise, I asked which wardroom he liked best the dirty shirt or the dress up one. He told me he did not eat in the mess, he was an officer. I did not want to go any further down that road

Bluestreak, Interesting article, thanks for including it. Can you believe that guys arrogance?

 

[400pilot]

and was on the helo that inspired the movie Black Hawk Down.

That's interesting.....considering Durant was the only pilot to survive, from either crash...

True Story

Speaking of pilot posers; We had this gal try to fly for us...nothing against the gal pilots. She said she had all this time and flew on the 1900 for a while. We got her in the Lance and she couldn't fly IFR to save her life. Everything she could do to keep the dirty side down. She would get lost at the top of the "T" on a GPS approach with a moving map and would blow the whole thing before she got to the FAF. Had to wash her out on the third day. Turns out she went to Gulfstream...

 

[con-pilot]

LOL...you busted the guy and he posted that like 8 months ago! :laugh: Now, the thread begins again. Absolutely awesome!

The only thing busted buddy is that I misspelled Miramar which at the time I was too lazy to look up the spelling. And if you were not even lazier you would have read my post and noticed I had (sp?) behind the name.

I do apologize for misspelling Miramar, I should have taken the time to correctly spell the name. :0

So, if you are insinuating that I am a bogus pilot bring it on dude!


With all of your 2,000+ hours. Shoot I have more time in reverse thrust that you do total time.

 

[NW Flyer]

You all remimded me a guy I used to fly with. He told stories about being a retired goverment agent (undercover type) and flashed a badge at the counter looking for discounts at the Hotel.

Don't get me going on this one!

 

[pilotpat]

Whoah con...see this is the problem with the boards. You are the one who didn't "hear" what I was saying. The thread had gone dead for 8 months and a guy posts with a "bust" on you. And I was not lazy and saw your (sp) which is what made the guy's comment that much more funny. THAT is what my post stated. Nothing personal at all about you. So c'mon down off the high horse papa, I never insinuated you were bogus and don't even get me started with your time in reverse. I could give a rats a$$ about your total time. Fack, a guy in my Falcon initial had 15,000 hours and couldn't fly worth a sh!t and they sent him packing. TT don't mean a dang thing.

 

[Say Again Over]

Nor did I, pilotpat just pointed out the facts, the reason I went back to the thread is that my bosses son (mentioned earlier) happen to see the post, I had to go back because I didn't remember, as a GCA controller at NKX, I just had to correct you, no disrespect to you! Blue Skies!
