If life is indeed so good for you, then why not just leave well enough alone and let them enjoy their griping? Just don't read the posts that bring you down. Save yourself some annoyance. Do you watch TV programs that you don't like? The tone of your post seems to suggest that your own happiness is a little suspect, else you wouldn't be suggesting they kill themselves with a .44! Enjoy your good fortune and try not to be upset by some people's childish whining and obvious sour grapes. You are right in what you said, but why let someone elses bummer ruin YOUR day? Personally, I find the griping somewhat revealing about how the people I share the skies with are thinking and that this info may be useful to me in some way. When I've had enough, I turn it off. It's probably more effective to address your complaints to the specific individuals concerned than to just throw your own gripes out to nobody in particular. There is alot of unhappy folks out there. Why let them bring YOU down? Enjoy your good fortune and try to share it by helping someone you think deserves it. If the whiners really bother you that much, maybe you should ask yourself why that is. Good luck!

Best,

I'd have to agree with g4800x. I have read so many threads where people open themselves up to just find a little help and get ripped to shreads. Like the whole PFT deal. I completly agree that undercutting someone sucks. However, until I got on these boards I never even thought of it that way so when people are just asking, don't assume they are trying to short change someone else. Maybe they just didn't know. I'm on this board to get help when needed and give help whenever I can. True I'm new to the board, but why the negativity. Life is good. Aviation is good. I love to fly and can't help wanting to go to a bigger plane. You all can't tell me that you got to the turbine jobs your at without trying to find the quickest way there when you were in our phase of training. I'm sure when i'm where you guys are I'll think similar to you, but I'm not gonna let myself forget that I once wanted to move faster to get the better job and better plane. I just love to fly but that love makes me itch to fly a newer better bigger plane. It's human nature and that of males in general. We like big toys. And before anyone cuts me down for saying this, yes I'm going through CFI right now and plan on building my hours both multi and single in this fasion. So give the younger or newer guys a break for crying out loud.

BTW i predict the mindset of the grouches on here are gonna automatically resent this message and give negative feedback. Would be way to much to be open minded and say, oh didn't think of it that way. vbmenu_register("postmenu_965143", true);

mpflies, with your attitude it sounds like you are going to make and you are pursuing flying the right reasons, namely you like to fly. Don;t let the negative vibes from the know it alls on this site get you down.

haha, i'm not down. But it might affect some other people on here more than me...thats why I'm just like give the other guys a chance to ask questions and not know some things. Just feel bad for some people who mean absolutly no harm.

The reason us grumpy old SOB's whine and moan is because we've been at it long enough to know what it USED to be like, and watching an elite, dignified, well-respected profession being utterly and completely destroyed is painful beyond words.

We want it to go back to what it was. Despite the gloom-'n-doom rhetoric, it CAN be done, and all pilots should strive for it. Don't accept unacceptable work conditions, or be happy with the status-quo.

I read these post's and threads and I can not believe the number of flame throwing, pissed off, angry, burned out s.o.b.s out there. If you are so miserable and hate flying, why do you do it? Why not go to plan B,C or whatever in your life. I have to think many are trolls, and many are just miserable by choice but good god I don't knoy why you don't just inhale a 44 magnum slug and do us all a favor. You don't have to look far to find people with a REAL reason to hate thier life and job, if they are lucky enough to have one. So my question is,,,,, why do you continue in aviation?
Life is Good, All is Well, it is what you make it.

yeah, I had about 300 of those guys picketing outside of my office the other day.

mpflies2 makes a good point. I got ripped to shreads when I came here to find information on Gulfstream a few years ago. The first response I had to my question was "You want to go be a whore go right ahead, but remember whores get paid!" There were a few well thought out replies that eventually came along and swayed my belief on PFT but up until that point I thought everyone here was just trying to keep people out of avaition for some odd reason. The old "You do it the way I did it or you're a loser!" thing. Honestly I thought everyone was just a bunch of assholes. Then I started getting PMed from the nice folks and spoke to some on the phone about the issue.

We must be diplomatic when a newbie to the board comes here asking for advice.
Oh, and BTW g4800x, this is an anonomous online forum. Half the fun of posting is to debate, talk shi!t, and rant. So don't be such a p-ssy.

O.K. fine, great fun, the whiner's don't make me lose any sleep, you are the sort person I would hope to help, so enjoy the crabasses. I have a size 13 boot I would like to introduce you to, and my wifes legs have more time in the air than you do....... WOW do I fit in now.!!!!

I'll give you that, I can't say I know what it used to be like. If it was better before, then I'm all for trying to do what it takes to improve it, but it doesnt justify ripping the newbies to shreads because they didn't know. Theres nicer ways to go about things. Lets use some of my FOI learning for example. A student (newbie) is more willing to learn if it is a pleasant experience. If it's an unpleasant experience, you will scare that student (newbie) away. That would be the principle of effect. Maybe that is the goal though. Scare away the new people who risk ruining the old way instead of giving them a chance to learn and do it that way. That would be less competition for some of the older guys i guess. Either way, just saying things can be done nicely. With the occasional smack talk, but only in fun not to really cut somebody down.
