I don't know why you all seem to have problems with Riddle guys. Yeah there are a few bad apples. But I have flown with way more arrogant "sky gods," that were never Riddle. Most Riddle guys I have flown with have excelled almost 100% better than most low and high time FO's and CA's. They usually have been very cordial and nice. We had one "wonderboy" once in ground school but he was shut down almost immediately after he opened his suck, by a more seasoned aviator, he got the point.

Embry Rddle Aeronautical University Out-excels all other schools by almost 100% better than both highly and lowly rated colleges!

You're a walking punchline.

Hilarious video.

I was headed out to do a late walk around two days ago and happened to meet an older female passenger making their way through the main cabin door; she stopped me and asked if I went to riddle. I said no and she said "thank god".

Not a punchline just an observation. Usually more aeronautically knowledgable. Rip VanJealous...

I think it was a gay bar.

What a joke !!!
Most of them have no common sense and "real world" decision making whatsoever. If it's not in the book, they don't know it. Can't think outside the box.
My personal experience after 10 years on the left seat, the best new FOs are the "change of career" guys (and gals), they bring something called prospective...(not in any Riddle book apparently).

I dont think it was in the Riddle book, because you meant Perspective, I think



Bu I know what you mean about flying with people who have no decision making capability or cant thin in the cockpit.

Here's a video I just posted in the video section of F.I.

Very hilarious video of a young Guido mouthing off in the same fashion as the My New Haircut" guy.

Enjoy.

Asian Version of Riddle Guy

Okay, a friend just sent me the Asian version of this video. (i.e., an Asian guy doing the same routine.)

Hilarious too.

Last time I CFI'd (late 90's) , my boss wouldn't hire riddle guys any more. Now before you say he didn't know what he was talking about or whatever, consider this. He was a D.E. , had owned this school for a long time, flew A-6's (I believe it was A-6's) in the navy. ATP , part 121/135 ops, and about 4 or 5 jet types. His claim to me at the time was that it was based on their lack of an instructional level of knowledge. He also said he didn't much care for their attitudes. I think he may have also been burned by a couple of them on expensive aircraft checkouts.
Now having said that- there was a girl there who was riddle . (hired before his policy change) who he thought very highly of. She's a Mad Dog driver at Allegiant now.

There's too many ways nowadays to get a good level of training anyways for alot less money.

I dont know, he is a friend of a friend. Somewhere between 02-04

I know you, and you're full of it.
He reminds me of a typical SIU grad, but less cocky.
