Re: the bottom line

Archer,

This is what it all boils down to....

Pilots know everything. The fact that you start a thread by asking a question reveals to all of us that you in fact are not one of the lucky few that knows everything. Therefore, you are not capable of being a pilot. I am sorry to be the one to break the news to you, but I have seen enough people dance around the issue now. Save yourself the heartache and pursue the rocket thing. Maybe one day you will come close to the status of all-knowing pilot. Best of luck to you, a non all-knowing person.

FL350

FL350...

Thank you for stepping up and finally sharing the long known secret with our non-all-knowing friend Archer... Now he may pursue something that he is up to, that doesn't require the all-knowing nature that is inherent to all pilots.

 

[bigD]

But doesn't being a funk master negate any physics geekness?

LOL...well, *I'd* like to think so!!!

Hey BizAvFa,

He would only be pretty to look at til he took his cloths off.

Hey BizAvFa,

Our you insinuating our good friend Archer looks like a Chia-Pet that has been under the sprinkler too long?

(I apologize to all Chia-Pet's out there for insulting you!)

 

[Archer]

Archer---
Being Italian, you are porbably pretty to look at, but the more you open up your mouth, the more uglier you grow. You original message has been lost in this thread and you are just facing an uphill battle right now.

Take your Red White and Blue education and go back to Italy with it. When you go bashing Americans (all 300 million of us) be sure not to hide where you got your Rocket Science degree from.

Milan's Linate airport has a large amount of corporate flying and look there for a job. Shapen your skills with some mountain flying, or do something useful with your life.

As of right now, we Americans need each other more than ever, and and irritating ethnocentric Euro-garbage deserves to go back to the land of 36% tax rates.

Goodbye!

PS
The Pope would be very unhappy with your level of pride, especially now that its lent!

BizAssFA, I didn't bash Americans, I simply tried to get the message across that you got to check our own maturity, before juging mine. Some of my best friends right now are Americans. I dont' want to get into American talk. Lets not make thigns worse than they are. On the other hand, watch your comments and stop insulting me. "look there for a job. Shapen your skills with some mountain flying, or do something useful with your life. " Who the hell said I wasn't going to do something useful with my life? It's either building rocket and jet engines with cutting endge technology and making 6 digit income, or becoming the pilot of some of highly technological, superb machines called business jets (in due time...not at 250 hours and a CPL of course). Now how about you go back and get the peanuts and Diet Pepsi ready for your passengers.

Archer,

If you are soooo smart, what the he!! are you doing asking this bunch of dumb pilots what to do with your life? You sound like you have it all figured out, being a Rocket Scientist and all...

I'm am not a professional pilot, so I don't know things about being a professional pilot. Logic...simple. I dont' even like the term Rocket Scientist...makes it seems like I think I'm a god or something...I'm an Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering student. And no, I dont' know all things, anyone who thinks so, is but a fool, for even the greatest philosophers said "All I know is that I know nothing"...forgot if it was Plato or whoever...



D@mn, I'm trying really hard to not throw this community out of the door...and I'm getting NOTHING in return.

This has been draggin on...I started by asking for a very simple question. Do you know of any foreign pilots in your corporate departments...other other companies...than are on a visa.

VERY simple question I had never asked before.

What do I get back? Some bulls*it about how I should stop asking questions, and blidly decide if I want to become a corp pilot or not...just like that, like a total idiot overtaking a car uphill, with idiotic people in the car suggesting to go faster and pass the car in front, not knowing what's on the other side of the hill...

Seriously, shame on all of you, except those who actually did answer my simple question, from a student pilot to a professional pilot, shame on you for being such selfish, careless people.

F*uck you are having a good time, but at my expense. That's just pure unrespectful...

and when respect is lost...all is lost

I'm not going to tolerate this much longer...

And Falcon, you are a "moderator" of this forum?

Impossible...as a true moderator would not take parts in arguments, as you did.

You did have a lot of good advice for me, and thank you for it, but this thread's deviation from a pure informational level, to a make fun of the "Archer" kid is partially due to a lack of moderating...especially as you took part of the side who made fun of me.

Archer

 

[ProLine4]

It's here...Archer Smackdown 2003 !!!

When you all drive to Purdue to smack him, if he isn't French, I will buy the gas and all of you a drink.

Hmmm...

If you guys give me a little advance notice on this "road trip" I can probably call my friend from college and get everyone free Jet A or 100 at LAF.
We can pack up the ramp with Falcons, Maddogs, U of I Archers, suicidal IMC freightdogs,you name it. Then all we gotta do is find his dorm and we can smack away. FalconCapt, FlyChicaga, and FL350 can play "paper-scissors-rock" to see who goes first. I can even get beer and a DJ too...BizAvFA can help me there.

Listen up for N123@@. Those are the LAF-based rental Archers that I bet Archer himself has graced with his 20-yr-old all-knowing presence.

 

[Archer]

Ok, this has gone too far, ProLine 4, shut your mouth full of cow s@it right now, and stop giving private details to the public without permission or I warn you, I'll take action. Who gave you f*ucking permission to relate me to those N numbers?

Where to start...

Where to start, where to start...

Who the hell said I wasn't going to do something useful with my life? It's either building rocket and jet engines with cutting endge technology and making 6 digit income, or becoming the pilot of some of highly technological, superb machines called business jets.

Whoa, Butch... lets not count our chickens before they hatch... First of all you have to get through all your schooling and training... And second of all you gotta get hired... and with your attitude... well, that all I have to say about that...

I dont' even like the term Rocket Scientist...makes it seems like I think I'm a god or something...I'm an Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering student.

NOW I have heard it all... "a god or something" Oh brother, anyone got a barf bag... give me a break Junior... Please, you can't tell me that you actually believe that babble you spew!?! "Rocket Scientist" tells me someone is trying to make their job sound more important than it is...

D@mn, I'm trying really hard to not throw this community out of the door...and I'm getting NOTHING in return.

Hey, you'd be doing a lot of people on here a favor... trust me on this one... Please don't be so full of yourself to think there is any chance that you and your attitude will be missed.

Seriously, shame on all of you, except those who actually did answer my simple question, from a student pilot to a professional pilot, shame on you for being such selfish, careless people.

No, shame on you for becoming so annoying with repetitiveness that this is the kind of reception you generate from you constant ad nauseum, repeated postings asking the same general questions, yet disregarding the answers you receive (this is appearant from you re-asking the same questions, obviously the first answers weren't good enough!)

F*uck you are having a good time, but at my expense. That's just pure unrespectful... and when respect is lost... all is lost

First of all, that sentence doesn't even make sense... Perhaps you should elect a few additional "English as a Second Language" courses and not so many "Rocket Scientist" courses...

Remember Butch, respect is earned, not demanded... You expect people to respect you because you are a 20 year old college student? Get in line, there are a lot of 20 year olds who have accomplished much more than you have... Get over yourself.

I'm not going to tolerate this much longer...

Oh Paleeease... spare us the drama, if you are leaving, go.. if you are staying, stay... no one is going to massage your ego either way, so don't expect it.

And Falcon, you are a "moderator" of this forum? Impossible...as a true moderator would not take parts in arguments, as you did.

And your point being?

Just because I am a moderator, doesn't mean I can't have an opinion, actually I am quite an opinionated person, just ask anyone who knows me personally... I call a spade a spade, and I don't keep my thought a secret... That's me, take it or leave it... I don't get anything for being a moderator, I donate my time and effort... if it will make the board feel any better I will go back to being a standard user... less work for me... no skin off my a$$...

I have tried to help you many times, answered many of your questions with long, thought out posts... Spent a lot of my free time helping people on this board, and helping the board in general be a better place. You, sir, have no right pointing fingers here...

this thread's deviation from a pure informational level, to a make fun of the "Archer" kid is just product of moderating...especially as you took part of the side who made fun of me.

You wanna know why the "Archer Threads" always deviate from the topic into a "Rip-on-Archer" thread? Because you ask nearly the same questions repeatedly... The same group of people give you the same answers, yet you still continue to ask the same basic questions... over and over... after a while, the knowledgable people on this board have had enough and realize maybe no one is home at the "Archer Residence"... then it becomes a bit of a joke that you are still asking...

Archer, you lost a lot of respect here... this thread has showed your true character from an annoying kid to an outright disrespectful person who thinks he is above everyone on this board. It comes across that you almost feel like you are doing us a favor by returning to this board... Newsflash for you son, you aren't... Life's tough, it's even tougher when your ego blinds you...

Get over yourself and your ego... you'll get a lot further in life!

*******
Now where the he!! is FlyChicaga, I gotta send him a check for some gas... Anyone know how far of a drive it is from U of I to Purdue?

Archer,

Ego Check!

Do you REALLY think anyone would waste there time driving to Purdue to see you...

Give me a frickin' break!

Dude, get over yourself!

 

[banned username 2]

Well sh!t, I guess I killed THIS thread!

 

[bigD]

D@mn - I missed all the action. Always a day late and a dollar short!

Archer Archer Archer (butch - LOL!)...there are close to ten thousand registered users on this board. Many if not most are inactive, or just lurking, but if you look at the Top-10 posters list and scroll through it a bit, you'll find lots of people here that have hundreds or more posts. Some have more than a thousand. Not all of them are high time pilots either - look at me or FlyChicaga - we're both pretty green.

To me, that says that there are a lot of people on this board from all levels of experience who feel that it has something to offer. This is a pretty amazing resource for pilots with any kind of question, and the sheer volume of people that post here regularly bear that out.

I've learned more on this board over the past couple of years than any other similar amount of time save the periods where I was actively working on a rating or certificate. I don't even have to post a question - many people post questions I don't even think to ask! If I could buy every person here a beer, I'd do it in a heartbeat. You get insight here that you'll never get from some Jeppesen textbook. And like I said above, I don't think I'm anywhere near alone in my sentiment.

So when you post this:

D@mn, I'm trying really hard to not throw this community out of the door...and I'm getting NOTHING in return.

...I can't help but write you off as a dumb@ss.

Sorry bud, it's 4th down, deep in your own territory, and you need to punt.

 

[banned username 2]

If I could buy every person here a beer, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

D@amn! I won't have the 8 hours "Bottle to Throttle" at lunch on Monday, but there is no 8 hour "BBQ to Throttle" rule! (well that is as long as you have a Lav on board!)

 

[bigD]

Heh - when my buddies and I fly to Llano for some Cooper's BBQ, I usually take a Cessna so I can leave the windows open for the trip home. It can get pretty bad. I hope the 900EX's cockpit is well ventilated!

 

[Archer]

Ok Falcon, please, for the sake of your claim that I post things repetively, go find me a single quote, where I have asked about work visas for corporate pilots. Just one thread, one post...where I asked any of you about work visas. My memory sucks, but I'm pretty sure I have never asked this question.

I'm known for posting more threads than the average member on online message boards...and I've been accredited for starting very original and interesting and useful threads. Maybe that didn't happen here...as I tend to ask about corporate aviation, which I'm interested in...rather than say talking about my PPL training...or about anything else in general.

and

First of all, that sentence doesn't even make sense... Perhaps you should elect a few additional "English as a Second Language" courses and not so many "Rocket Scientist" courses...

You would think that after 126 posts, you would get the point that I'm trying to fix things, and you guys still go on making fun of me. So how am I supposed to show respect for you people?

You went ahead and judged me, saying

Archer, you lost a lot of respect here... this thread has showed your true character from an annoying kid to an outright disrespectful person who thinks he is above everyone on this board.

"disrespectful person"...first of all...I tried to be as respectful as I could against a dozen people, all against me, all disrespecting me. Cmon Falcon, how would you have acted if more than a dozen people made fun of you and actually insulted you in several occasions? wouldn't you have trouble having respect for those people?

BigD...

This is a pretty amazing resource for pilots with any kind of question, and the sheer volume of people that post here regularly bear that out.

So when you post this:

...I can't help but write you off as a dumb@ss.

I think you missed my point. I agree with all that you said, and in the sentence I wrote than you quoted, and tried to say exactly that. This place is an amazing resource for pilots or prospective pilots...which is why I'm having a hard time "throwing out of the door"...when I said I'm getting nothing in return...I meant no effort from all you guys to stop the making fun of "Archer" and discussing things like civilized adults.

If you think I'm repetitive, just say it, but don't go bashing me! Remain civil, as I've been, until you all started bashing me.

You guys started it...all I could do is try to defend my image, to no avail it seems, as you guys can't discuss things like adults it seems, resorting to idiotic jokes.

I hope, for the last time, that you get the message I'm trying to get across.

It's not too late to fix things, if you cooperate at your end, as I'm trying to remain as civil as possible, as I value this board as a great resource, and trying my best to cope with it's members.

And all was fine till this thread...until you all lashed out at me...

Wow! Now THAT'S maturity! I'm impressed.

an overachiever.

I just love that he keeps on postin, only to get shot down!!!

When you are flying with JetPilot500 a well ventilated cockpit is a MUST!

No beans for him on Monday!

If the board is a great resource, and the board is made up of all us members, then that makes these members you speak of the great resource. I would stop your remaks about those who frequent this board since they are the ones providing you with information. Especially all the members who have posted on this thread, they are some of the most common you'll see exchanging information elsewhere. Yet your going to knock them?

D@mn - I missed all the action. Always a day late and a dollar short!

Don't worry, I missed it too. Everytime I go to work I miss all the good stuff. I'll have to take my laptop along more often.

I'm known for posting more threads than the average member on online message boards...and I've been accredited for starting very original and interesting and useful threads.

Really? Guess I never got the memo.

 

[jumppilot]

Archer needs a HUG.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure this has been beat to death, but Archer, come on dude. I used to work at Lafayette Aviation and I can tell you one thing my fellow CFIs and I had in common..We want to fly cool sh*t, get of out Lafayette and enjoy every minute of it.

We didn't care if we got out flying a Baron, an RJ or anything else...Hell, we were all young and realized we could always do something different if we wanted to (ummm, I don't know what that would be).

Seriously dude, chill out and go with the flow. Falcon Capt's sig says it all...It's in the journey. AND NO MATTER WHAT CAREER YOU CHOOSE IT WILL NEVER WORKOUT THE WAY YOU WANT IT TO.

Ask any CFI at Lafayette Aviation what they want to do, and it will be one answer in one form or another, "I want to leave this town and flying something cool"

Good advice.

EDIT: FlyChicaga made a good point. If you don't love aviation, you're not in the right field. I will be able to endure 530 shows, 16 hour duty days and crap pay for a long time because I love aviation. To this day when I fly, I always look out the window am thankful that I can have such a nice view, and am able to do something not many people are able to do. That is my motivation, that is my drive. Without it, you need to rethink what you are doing.

And another note, I got into flyining because when I was 6 years old I saw Topgun and thought, "Wow, I want to do that"...I've never looked back. You need to look inside of you and comitt to whatever you FEEL IS RIGHT. Be it an engineer or a pilot, you'll be a lot happier.

God I feel old, Top Gun was out during my Freshman year of College...

 

[bigD]

Don't even get me started, Falcon Capt! I just got done having a couple of pitchers of lunch time beer with some buddies, and I didn't even get carded. What kind of sick sh!t is that!!!??? Jeeebus!
