Ryan Air Captain Gets lost over Rome

[Colonel Savage]

Why don't the insurance companies care? If I try to insure a light aircraft, they ask all sorts of questions about hours and set requirements for coverage.

MPL=bad idea

Happens in the AF and Navy.

Not only is the AF/Navy not the airlines, but mil pilots are heavily screened and go through an extermely thorough and intense training program.


This is CLEAR PROOF that the Multi pilot license (MPL) is a BAD IDEA!!! Not only is it dangerous, but it cheapens the profession.

the guys at ryan int'l flying right seat in 727's were not on a MPL they were flying on a commercial licence and upgraded after putting a year in sideways

AF/Navy guys are superior pilots when compared to their civilian counterparts. That is why they can pull this off.

Does that mean that your skill level has declined since becoming a civilian pilot verses if you had stayed in the service??

That is an untrue statement. I have been a large jet captain long enough to have seen the best and the worst from both sides. You obviously have never seen a former pt 135 freight dog who then flew metros or jetstreem 31s. Some of the best pilots I've ever seen. Some of the worst were single seat fighter pilots, so dont give us that crap. By the way, I do have the utmost respect for MOST military pilots.

Guess your computer does not show smiley faces. I'll say he was going down the sarcasm route.
