(breathing ....) (breathing ....) "Serenity noooooooowwww!" "Serenity nooooww!"
Hey ... that really works. Thanks.
I still will never, EVER, even if I live to be one hundred, understand exactly what the h@ll the FAA thinks it's going to accomplish when it's own petty bureucrats don't even have a thorough understanding of the rules. It's insane. I asked one simple question once of a rep at the GSO FSDO. When I called back the following week for a clarification question I got AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT ANSWER from someone in the SAME office. I mentioned it in conversation to the owner of a mid-sized Part 135 operation where I was flying at the time, and he proceeded to recount horror story after horror story of misinformed, contradictory inspectors making his life miserable for thrity-some years. And then there are the inspectors who are on such a power trip they honestly appear to delight in making uncomfortable the men and women who are trying to feed families doing a job they love, and a job they strive to be the best at every single day, whether they be pilots or controllers. It's a d@mn shame.
