One guy on there has been through ditching training.... that'll impress a prospective employer.
 
Experienced waiter in the fine dining industry and typed in a C172, top it off with a degree in Aeronautical Science from ERAU. Good luck to him. I'd better not say too much, he might end up being my captain someday in the 797-300ER.
 
The one dude is an "expert" in Microsoft Windows. wow. what does that have to do with anything. ahh fuk it....they will a flying SJ somewhere in the next 6 months for 19 bucks an hour.
 
how about the guy who is a "hard working commercial pilot" with 688 cross country hours over 50nm ( I thought that defined x country but certainly glad he made that clear) and he can endure long work hours which means he is willing to work for nothing to fly something cool. I wonder if he could endure if I dropped him from 10,000 feet and still keep all of his teeth connected to his skull.
 
And 60 hours not just in a flight training device, but a Level 6 flight training device. Wow.

Nice avatar, 80for80. :D

Well no, actually it isn't.

61.1(b)(3) defines it, and it makes no mention of a specific distance. Later, the FAR goes on to explain that the aeronautical experience requirements for some certificates have various mileage limitations associated with their cross-country time, but a landing 50 miles away is not the definition of "cross country." Not at all.

And there's my nerd moment for the day... :beer:

He is a member here, and has done some sweet ferry flights!

Exactly, so those hours count for his ATP as well, not just for meeting part 135 mins.

Why bash the "hard workers?" He never said he didn't expect to be compensated for his hard work. I don't have a problem with someone "taking one for the team," as long as the company shells out the $$$ to reward them.
 
Funny how some people have such short term memory. You don't remember yourselves at 262 hours? I'll bet you that you looked just as "funny" as these guys you're mocking.

You know... I think you'd be "cooler" if you'd email these guys about some openings you know or have heard of. I'm sure you "old salts" would have appreciated that same gesture during the time of Orville when all of you apparently learned to fly.

Actually, Orville was busy and it was Wilbur who signed my logbook.
 
Has anyone heard of a Hard Working Commercial Pilot Certificate? I wish I had one of those! My just says Commcercial. Hmmmm. Well at least the guy says flat out, No PFT! Gotta give him props on that!

It's the ERAU degree that separates the waiters in the fine dining industry from the waiters at places like Denny's. :D

That is a Description Only!! It is used to get attention it works!!!! And Yes!!!! NO *************************ING P.F.T.
 
Oh, it must be so very easy to poke fun at people who are out there pounding the pavement looking for a job. Clearly they should have taken the Riddle-Intern-FO track that you took to land you in a mighty CRJ/ERJ with 250 whole hours.

I looked at this site, and I didn't see anything that made me want to laugh. There's a low time guy on there with trans-oceanic crossing experience..... I've never done that, and I would wager that you haven't either. Guy looks pretty young, yet he owns his own business.... Tell me again how we're supposed to make fun of this guy?

Oh, and your "favorite"... Ryon Jones.... A quick look at his resume shows 6 years between high school and college spent working in car stereo installation and as a waiter, most likely to pay his own way through flight training.

Once again, how do these guys not measure up to your standards? I know, it must be because they didn't drive to high school in a BMW that daddy paid for and financed their own way through flight training.

I'd take either of these guys over you and your "holier than thou" sense of entitlement as my F/O every day of the week.

Even if you were right, I refuse to take someone with a screen name of "Bling" seriously.. much like I refuse to take anyone who likes to you a "z" in lieu of an "s" seriously (ie. boyz, planez, jobz..... each of which I see here on a daily basis). Then again, that's a rant for another day.

Back to my original point. You advertise 1500 hours and a job as an RJ FO. Tell me, how did you get your time? What makes you any better than these guys you enjoy making fun of? Or are you just another bitter wannabe old-salt at the ripe old age of 25?

geez...you have to admit that some of it is kind of funny. the main issue i have with some of the resumes is that they are not professional. these kids need to learn how to put together a professional resume that someone will want to look at.
 
How quickly we all forget what it's like to be a nobody in this biz. Pilots are good at pulling up the ladder.

It's not that he's a waiter, its that he tries to make it sound bigger by saying its a fine dining place. So what? He's good at sucking up to the rich people, hence he'd be a good corporate pilot? I'm sure he's a good guy, but come on, if you have to fluff your resume like that to get the "competitive edge"....

I sincerely hope this guy improves his resume, and really, I shouldn't jump on the band wagon making fun of ERAU, where I really don't know much about them. But, on the other hand, I remember some of my first resumes, and I just have to laugh at myself, as we all do.

BTW, seriously, you never know if someone is going to be your chief captain 20 years down the road, I'm sure some of our veteran pilots could tell stories of guys they never expected to succeed, but then ended up outranking them.
 
Skypine, I didn't find anything funny with these resumes. All I see is a couple of guys trying to get ahead in their aviation careers.

Let them be... and if you're a man enough, help them correct potential mistakes in their resumes. Help them get in that shiny jet by pointing them out in the right direction whether it's with a job, or correcting their resume mistakes. Ever think of that? They posted their e-mails and their phone numbers there.

I'll bet it hasn't crossed your mind. But you're so quick to personally ridicule
them on the internet. A real winner, aren't you?
