Fun to/from KLAX today!!

That is very impressive..... Time to leave the circle jerk!

You may indeed be a very skilled aviator, but your attitude is what makes you unmarketable. Flying in a crew situation is just as much about personality as it is flying ability.

The fact of the matter is that a jet isn't very difficult to fly. Sitting next to a jerk all day however is quite difficult.

For one thing, I would never be dumb enough to sit next to some arrogant wannabe that drives airplanes when I can do it myself. My attitude has served me well, I call it like I see it, I pull no punches. Your industry is so f*cked up I don't even no where to begin. To think that the general public doesn't even know that there pilot was taught by some dumbass with 250 hrs or less and paid to be in the right seat is beyond comprehension. I sought out the crustiest, highest time, most experienced instructor I could before I laid out dime one. If a pilot is dumb enough to pay a hundred grand to let some 20 yr old punk with no experience teach them from scratch and then log time in the back seat of a Semenhole to build time to buy a seat on a turbo prop, then I ain't flying commercial. Do you actually think that flying airplanes is difficult? If you do, you obviously never took a medical board or finished grad school, performed a AAA or a million other things that require true talent and dedication. The sad truth is millions of lives are put in the hands of inexperienced high log book time pilots that think they're smart. I got news for ya, if a rat brain cell can fly and land an f-16, so can a monkey.

Oh my.... I better make sure I know who I'm talking to. You going to come over and kick my ass little boy?

Dude.. I get rid of more brain cells when I take my daily crap than you have in your entire head.

This guy is worse than the guat... What a tool!!

Spoken like the true scholar you're not, you are a joke if you think I would actually entertain the thought of bitch slapping your arrogant little ass.

I was referring to something else you will never understand or know anything about.

 

[TDTURBO]

No, just PRICK

Oh now you want to check***? Check captain or whatever you call yourself.

Taking off my moderator hat for a minute, some of you guys are pathetic, no- all of you are. First the ones that keep mouthing off and then you guys who rise to the "bait".

Flying's a lot like the old gunfighters. No matter what, there's one that's better than you are someplace. It's been my experience (and there's been a lot of different kinds) that all you need to do is go out and do the job that you're getting paid for in a quiet and professional, dignified manner. We've probably all been guilty of a little mis-timed bashing or bragging. Most pilots will realize that when you "grow up", you'll stop that foolish behavior. If maturity doesn't shut you up, an accident or some other humbling experience will. BTW, crow isn't tasty.

So a bit of advice from an older guy. Shut up and just do your job, ok? And for you other guys, don't be pulled in by idiots! Let the fools be fools. They'll finally realize they're foolish someday all by themselves. Or else Darwin will weed them out eventually.

Why spoil our fun? You are just as "pathetic" with your comments.

Trust me ** ,I would'nt waste my time on a fruitless search.
Please keep your family off any commercial flight if they are any way near as stupid as you.

I think we realize all this UAL.


Hey, you got pulled in too!

Addition from UAL78..
I don't wish to hijack your post, but a couple of the posts on this thread were reported to the moderators and that's how I found this. Rather than remove, edit, or stop the thread, I just let it die it's own death with my $.02. But, yes, I guess I did get pulled in in a manner of speaking.

Do you have a problem with written English? Post #16 huh? Show me where I said an RJ is single pilot.

Don't worry about ever flying with me unless you're a payng passenger.

My attitude is just fine, in fact it has served me well, very well, I just happend to loath PFT momma boys.

When we going island hopping?.

"The fact of the matter is that a jet isn't very difficult to fly. Sitting next to a jerk all day however is quite difficult." Quote by CHPERPLT.


Two quotes I liked. Actually, G-200 had one but I can't figure how to multi-quote.

 

[chperplt]

TD, this dude went from being a captain at one regional to being a first officer on one of those RJ's at another regional, obviously I would be just a tad "bitta" if I was in his position as well

Deleted so I wouldn't stoop to his level.

You are such a tool. You want to revisit the conversations we were having with our friend English before? You want everyone to know who you really are, and what you really do for a living?

Want those pictures to resurface??

Also, why on earth would I be bitter? I went from flying junk airplanes to flying state of the art airplanes. I went from over 20K in debt, to 0 in debt. I went from driving a broken down 00 Pontiac, to a brand new Chrysler crossfire. My went from driving a 87 Pontiac, to a 2004 Chrysler Sebring. Seems to me a lot of good things have happened since I took that step back as you call it.

Once again... Do you want to start a war? If you do, I would be more than glad to out you right here and now. Everyone knows my true deal here.. You want them to know yours?? I don't think you do. I really don't think you do.

All I know is my time is worth more than yours will ever be, say what you want, I have to plan my next trip.

Arguing with some punk on the internet ceases to further amuse me, over and out.

Goodnight Doc

Exactly my point, and where did i say an RJ is single pilot? The point was that PFT fags have no experience with single pilot low IFR in singles. Go ahaed and fly with them, it's your life. Anybody can buy a rating, not everybody can fly a single IFR internationally for a thousand hrs without getting killed before moving up to a twin then to a CFI then to cargo then to an RJ, get it? I want guys with experience flying my family around, not some rich punk stealing a seat away from some guy that earned it, that's all I'm saying.

Sadly, at one time, TDTurbo was a legitimate poster, and has something to say, or at least an opinion with some measure of credibility. Any more, it's all flame-bait and foolishness.

The quote above cracked me up. If he had half a brain, he wouldn't have been flying around in his "hard international IFR" in single engine airplanes....especially overwater. He seems to think it's some badge of honor or experience...and it's clearly one of those cases where one is far better to keep one's trap shut and appear an idiot, than open it and remove all doubt. At least now that he's (she's?) mouthed off, there is no doubt.

Just how does one become an industry expert at his lofty level without ever actually having experienced employment in the industry...any part of it?

Better than his commentaries here, I really liked his thread a while back about the need to fly singles in icing conditions to really learn one's stuff. Especially singles not certificated for ice. We can learn a lot from this guy. He's exactly the stuff of which accident statistics are made, and not only do we one day have the opportunity to read his accident report and benifit, but we can see it coming, too. It's a very thorough case study in the entire accident chain, and we get to study it before the final event ever happens.

If anybody happens to know this brightspark, be sure to post when he finally does himself in, so we get the full picture, beginning to end. Otherwise, we might miss some final nugget of valueable prose, some wisdom or learning that he might leave behind, or just the chance to have him with us in memory for all time. That would be sad, and oh-so-tragic. Rather than run him down, (we won't have him for long), let's enjoy his massive experience, his elegant discertations, and his depth of knowledge while he's still among us. We're fortunate that he's here.

Really.
