I too am speechless. Stuff like that just makes us all look bad. Those guys need to be locked in a portable toilet and set on fire. I'm gonna go shower....i feel dirty just from watching that.

Good Lord! How anyone made it past about 30 seconds is completely beyond me. I can't even listen to that damned song anymore with out wanting to kill someone! And this video is a good example of why the guys I fly with who did attend ERAU try to hide that fact. Either that or they simply start out by saying "I went to Riddle, but I'm not like that.":puke:

I hope that moron "crashes and burns"! the sad thing is that his network friends actually believe his crap. Sad society we live in
 
Wow-- More cheese in 2 frames of that nugget than in the whole state of WI... and I think that it's safe to say that next yrs Academy Awards won't feature new category: "best collective performance from pilot dorks in a mockumentary".
One question though-- does Riddle really make their students wear the military-style flight suit while they're flying the pattern in a 172??
 
You think after their Chief and Asst. Chief put two airplanes together* these guys would think before doing anything stupid like that.


*I relize they were practicing for a aerobatic display and accidents happen, I was not blaming them in anyway for what happened. Just if it can happen to 2 experienced aero pilots maybe students shouldn't be doing that crap and video taping it.

Air Force ROTC guys who have been awarded flight slots wear the flight suits...so its a ROTC thing.
 
Wow

OH......MY......GOD......

All I have to say is coming to a right seat near you.

C172: $105.00/Hr.

ERAU education: $80,000.00

"Never been this close to a riddle plane before": PRICELESS

No, I didn't go to Riddle but now maybe some of you understand why there is a stigma.

Do they get cool fake wings and callsigns too? Very gay.

I found it to be like bad porn. You want to stop watching but you just can't pull your eyes away from it.


LMAO- very good analogy!!!

I'm kinda outing myself here as a riddle grad/IP, but I did a few flights for the guy who played goose(poorly i might add). I unsatted him on more items than i can remember. What makes me really sick is that all of those guys were AFROTC, they all thought they were billy badass. I weep for our national security.

wow...where to start

ok I went to Riddle and even did 2 years Air Force ROTC at Det 157. Those tools are the very reason why I got out of ROTC!!

Toooooooooooooooo many dorks at that school and sadly a lot of them end up at Det 157....which is why I never parted at Riddle

You sir, are a HERO! Can ya somehow get the CRJ background to disappear though? My eyes are bleedin'.

I wish I could but that would defeat half the joke! LOL! The guy claimed to be an ExpressJet Captain out of ONT but he has a SKYWEST CRJ as his background image.

Too funny.
 
On the contrary, I thoroughly enjoyed the Video.

In your perpetual ‘hate Riddle, UND, etc.’ you guys/gals are completely forgetting to see the humor in the video. They might get lot of flack on this board, but ask any of your theatre/drama teacher and he/she would tell that for the college kids, they made a very good video – comes from my friend who teaches theatre/film class at a big Midwest University and he is not a pilot.

I’d give these guys/gals 10/10 for video editing, sound, screenplay and acting. C’mon…just look at the humor in it. I thought it was hilarious when the pilot was ‘rattled’ with a Cessna 172 and the ‘riddle pilot’.

I guess it’s about time that you guys take life easy. In fact most of these guys looked pretty handsome and have better sense of humor than most of you on this board. I don’t know why almost everyone puts down Riddle as a flight school.

What if costs so much money to go there? The people who decided to go there somehow had the resources to pay for it and none of them ever asked you for a loan and then refused to pay back, did they?

Most of us without aviation degrees couldn’t go to Stanford or other Ivy League or top schools in the nation but couldn’t due to finances or other reasons (I wanted to go to Stanford for a math degree even though I carried 3.68 all along). At the same time, I never put down those who could go and were financially able to. On the other hand, just because Bush went to Yale (can’t speak properly) and Clinton did too…you can see the difference. Both went to same school but intellectually completely different.

Same with UND/Riddle/SIUC, etc. You just can’t ‘generalize’ everyone. And to those who do, here’s a link, read it and then tell me. This guys went to Riddle too.

Lighten up guys. Enjoy the humor in the video. And check out this link.

You guys/gals are showing no class by accusing these guys of being 'gay'...how do we know that you're not? Offended...wow...you shouldn't be ...it's OK to be gay. Just don't accuse someone of something out of your unsubtantiated personal or professional dislike.
