Re: BULL $HIT!!!!

LOL!!!! Now I know you're fake! You flamebait me in this post. When I asked you what a PA-31/G was in another post, you didn't bother to explain your error and changed it to a -350; same as what I have flown. Besides, you spew out all this bilge about flying around in Citations. It may have happened but I seriously doubt that it was in the capacity you described. And who has a Student Pilot license with 200 odd hours? You must be one lousy pilot! Enigma said it best,

"This board is populated by a bunch of pilots who have proven to each other that they are who they say they are; we did it by a having a history of posts that our peers recognize as reliable information."

You neither have history on this board nor proof of who you say you are. I know people on this board personally and can back up every word I type (or at least most of it). If I make an error I own up to it.

Until I see some proof of who and what you say you are, I am inclined not to believe a word you write. And until that time comes I will maintain that you, sir, are a F-A-K-E.

Now then, it's past your bed time. Turn off the comptuer and let mommy tuck you in.

Put that in your houka and schmoke it!

I'm curious Skyking what did you flight plan your Navajo as. Ours Is a PA-31/G. I guess I was just in flight plan mode. What else am I soposed to have other then a student pilot at 14 you say I'm a bad pilot because I don't have my license, thats a little hard. So what if I changed it to -350 thats what I flew. Do you think maybe that piper made more then one chieftan and more then one person owns one. How do you expect me to give you proof tell me and I'll do it right away, but I'm leaving Sat for a week so I'll be back the 23'd.

I missed something that appears to have some value, either humorous or some new technological innovation. Can someone fill me in?
 
Allrighty then....

You went back to your original post and explained the /g stuff away and it appears that you can respond to posts with some mark of intellegence (albeit at a 14 year old level). The way you have made your posts sound quite grandiose gives off a certain BS level that myself and others attribute to past "BS'ers" that have been on this board. Being that no one on this board knows you, and you have only a few days of posting history with a whole slew of posts, you can see how your remarks may be viewed as lies and that type of behavior suspiciously points to a "flamer" (not the gay kind).

As for the remark about you being a lousy pilot, I apologize. I do not know you and do not know what your skills are. The comment was a direct result of have way too many of Milwaukee's finest barley based beverages and getting all riled up over that Skyboss imbecile.

I can understand embellishment, especially at your age. We all did it in one form or another. Certainly you can understand why I tossed up the proverbial red flag and called you on it. However, I am willing to to take what you say is the truth. Just don't go getting all carried away with stories about flying Citations, King Airs and the like. If you have some constructive info to post about peoples' questions about systems, regs, etc., that gives you a whole lot more credibility in my book.

Now then, I propose a truce until such time as either you prove yourself a liar or quite legitimate. Once again, I apologize for any offending remarks I may have made.

Keep your stick on the ice,
SK:cool:

Hmmm.... SID tells me that if you look to the STAR's over the Rockies you might get an urge to "revise" what you have already put in your "little black book".

Thanks I'll agree with that truce. The reason I have so many post is because I've been going to the airport thinking I was going to fly then they cancle the trip and I have to sit down there for a couple hours while my mom is doing paperwork so I go on the computer. The reason I always say the stuff about the king airs and citations is so you will judge me as a pilot not just some kid talking B.S. If I didn't have my age down no one would call me a B.S.er. I had to do the same thing with people over on two other forums.
 
You know, I learn a lot from the 121/135 types.
Thanks

Then talk about what you definitely know as facts. Read the airplane POH's from cover to cover and know the systems and limitations cold. This will make you a better pilot in the future and give you better insught to some of the questions posted on this board. And if you had a problem on other boards with people calling you a BSer because of your age you think you might have left it out of this one.

I started them on the day, but I don't want to lie and make people think I fly a citation with 200 hours they won't belive that either. I guess I could shut up and not say any thing about me. That's what I'll do if I join any other forums...........

On behalf of the majority members of flight info, I have been nominated to pass this along to you.

While we appreciate your patronage, and applaud your intensity, it has come to our attention that you have been registered on this board just several days yet you have an average of 21 posts EACH DAY. You're like the little kid who was never loved or given attention at home, and now as an adult (if you're an adult) you talk the the longest, the loudest.. and never shut up.

Relax a little and let others talk. You don't have to post a reply to every thread out there. And while we all realize that you are this huge all knowing, all encompassing "player' in aviation, and you make more than us, and you have an in with all industry insider knowledge, and you have studied with the Dali Lama, and your wife is Morgan Fairchild... please... we're begging you...log off for a while.

You're annoying the sh!t out of just about all of us.

Hey... here's a little tip for you: Try and listen, and participate, and be a facilitator, not a masterb@tor.

Thank you.

Looks like Skyboss ruffled the feathers of quite a few aviation "status-quoers". Although I didn't read every one of his points and posts in the other thread, I do agree with some of his statements. I agree with Skyboss that many airline pilots are overpaid. The usual argument is that the difficulty of flying warrants a high salary. Sure, the job is difficult, but this is doesn't necessarily justify earning $150+k/year. Think about the cops, nurses, railroaders, etc. pulling midnight shifts, earning peanuts compared to airline pilots. Those are not easy jobs. Thus, I think we can agree that using the "difficulty" of a job to set salary is not logical.

The harsh truth is that your salary is determined by how valuable you are to a company. That value is determined by replacement cost. How difficult would it be to replace an airline pilot in today's market? Now ask yourself why airline pilots earn more than many doctors, surgeons and lawyers.

On the other hand, I agree that many regional pilots are underpaid. Of course, those pilots tolerate their rediculously low wages in order to one day earn the union-protected wages at the majors.

Man, if only I had gotten to fly a jet when I was 14. :D The biggest thing I flew then was straight and level in my uncle's old beater 182.

You know what? I have no doubt that a few kids out there get to do this, and you may well be one of them. The only thing I'd suggest is that you not reveal who it is that your mom works for, you might get her into trouble by posting here that she lets you fly, even if with her.

Btw, we've got one customer here who's son got his private helicopter ticket a few months ago, and his fixed-wing ticket last year on his 17th birthday. He is working on his commercial in both the helicopter and CFI and plans to take both checkrides on his 18th birthday.

When I was 18, I was too busy chasing girls to do all this cool stuff! :D

Fly safe!

Airline pilots are overpaid 99% of the time.

It is the 1% of the time when it all goes wrong when they are not paid nearly enough.
