Speaking of Dorks...

[say again]

I vote complete dork, and for the $$$ he spent- IDIOT!!!

"There were people that spent almost $100,000 through other flight schools to be in the same place I was for $35,000. I cannot express enough how thankful I am to ATP."

And I'm sure they're veeeeery thankful to you too. Yikes!

 

[Caveman]

"I was going to vote dork as well, but then I remembered I dropped $7500.00 on a B737 type that has so far bagged me exactly DICK! Hmmmm...."

Thanks. I just blew coffee out of my nose and all over my laptop. That's funny right there, I don't care who you are.







Hey Rook! How you doing?

If 3 out of 4 pilots flunked the checkride, I'd say there was something fundamentally wrong with the pilot selection process or the training program . . . or both.

Don't be fooled into thinking he meant every word of that testimonial. He wrote something glossy that would attract students. Obviously he's someone who participated in this training and was given the oppourtunity to write something positive about it for marketing purposes. For whatever reason, they had him out of probably many others who took the course, write a testimonial on his experience and how it benefitted him. Maybe he was paid a little something for it. I'm sure there are many who took this training and it didn't help them one iota in the interview. Maybe he felt the same way about the program as many of you do, but he received it at a reduced rate since he may have been an instructor there. I've heard the course which is something like $5,000 is offered to employees for as little as $1,000. Gvien this opportunity, I think most low time instructors wouldn't mind getting a head start on understanding an RJ's system.

It's one thing to be an outsider walking in with 5 grand to take this course, but entirely different if you're an employee who's getting it at a reduced rate. He probably got a kick out of what he wrote anyway.

I don't know what you guys are talking about, I paid $25,000 for a crj sim-prep and I learned a lot. They taught me how to hold....just push the hold button on the fms...totally worth it

 

[Flying_Corporal]

I wonder if flight schools make that stuff themselves in their marketing brochures.

 

[CoolSidePillow]

Those are the guys I used to beat up just because I had a little time to kill. Damn I miss blood on my knuckles. Chacockwa deserves him....

1. Elvis is dead and not cool but cold.
2. Perhaps at 500 hrs he did not have any previous experience to "confuse" him.
3. Dork is way too kind.

I love your avatar.

 

[splatattack]

dork?

i say retard

 

[DX Rick]

You guys are all freakin ridiculous. I know him personally and he's a top notch pilot and an all around good guy. He was a career changer and was happy with the education he recieved. The biggest dorks out there are the ones that look this stuff up just to make fun of people. Come on.

Admitting you know this guy makes you a "dork" too.

 

[Traumahawk]

It's always the same losers on here that are pulling up people's testimonials/profiles etc...

I don't know the dude who wrote this, but I do know people like P. mugger are Life's Biggest Nothings.
