He went to college in a liberal state, so he could chase his own kind.

Mainland HS doesn't count

While I was attending this oh so prestiegious university Playboy ranked ERAU the 2nd worse school to attend as a male... VMI was number one... so I'm really curious where all this Tang was coming from. I know that the fat chicks started looking good after 3 years, but geez brotha!! :beer:
Honestly, I was also a member of the flight team, but the dark side (flight rec) so I didn't partake in any gay events like coming up with silly phrases or videos. However we had some killer drinking parties! Sad to see that video though, kinda embarrassing, atleast they didn't put Top Gun music in it!

The money came from a High Schooler who got accepted into the NBA right out of high school! He donated money to the school for 3 or 4 basketball courts inside.

[big_al]

if youre busy chasing poon, you obviously dont have time for english class. no big deal

Attention all ERAU alumni. If you think this stuff is harmless, the past company I worked for has un-officially banned hiring of ERAU grads due to video's, and the poor attitude they receive from ERAU grads. That was a very good company with many pilot positions in the future. If this burns your biscuit you should let the ERAU alumni association know.

I couldn't make it to the end, sorry.

Who cares about the spelling. If you don't call it "poon" you will get to see it alot more.

I agree, but when I owned MY company I offically banned ERAU grads because of BAD ATTITUDE!

Theres rejects in every bunch, but I don't see why you should weed out a lot of good candidates as well.

Might as well not interview anyone with a college degree..

Ok folks, I know our reputation, and I happen to be friends with alot of the CFIs that took part in that and have three students on our flight team. Say what you may about them, but those flight team guys are some of the best students I've taught. All that competition was about was getting them ready for nationals and for us, having a little fun. I didn't think it was supposed to make us look like we're all God's gift to flying, and everybody there had a great time. And yeah, the CFI's lost, but you all are right, we were too busy teaching to go and practice 500 spot landings.

Most of the students and CFI's here, myself included, try everything to get rid of that stereotype that we all think we're better than everyone else and deserve whatever job we apply for. I'll always tell my students the way it really is out in the real world (ie keep your CFI cert current, and a second job prospect open at all times).

Ya'll will love this story. One of my best students one night kinda got to me a little bit. It was about midnight, and a Continental 737 was taxiing out in DAB 5 hours late due to delays in Newark. As they taxied past our ramp, they said "Hey is that the Embry Riddle ramp?" Tower said "Yeah about 90% of flight training in the country is on the east coast of Florida." Then my student jumps on the radio and says "Yeah but the best ones come from Riddle."
I just shook my head and said "You've got a LOT to learn."

Shoulda slapped him up side the head....

I've met some major tools from the flight team.

A student who was a CFI at Air America was presenting about why off campus flight training may be a better option, and a flight teamer had to pipe up with the "well if you do your flight training at Riddle you'll get hired at an airline with 200 hours" crap...

I almost cracked up.

********************ing dumbass.

Back in '99 when I started here as a student, that was pretty much true (Bridge programs, internships, etc), but not so much anymore.
