superior pilots thru superior training

[Abernathy]

It's funny how you all make fun of them for dressing and looking professional. Most of you could learn from their example.

It's not about professionalism. The company has them wear pilot uniforms to con their students into "feeling" like they're reaching their goal, and thus, more willing to shell out the extra cash for their bullsh** program.

Med-students don't wear Lab coats and surgical head gear to class. Actually, the more analogically appropriate example is: McDonald drive-thru "associates" take off their yellow/red uniform when they get home.

You're missing the point. To an airline pilot, the job IS their lifestyle. It's who they ARE, not just what they do. Most airline pilots want to be enveloped in the persona 24/7.

As dumb is the Gulfstream video is, it's Academy Award material compared to this tool-fest: JET U

Warning: Don't watch with a full stomach.

Those same "tools" are flying you and your family around the skies at 450kts.

Jet University grad, BTTB? Talk to us, Goose.

You know all these programs preach the same thing: seniority is everything, hurry up and get your number, etc. etc. Kind of makes me wonder if the "pyramid scheme" system in place at the airlines only encourages this kind of crap. The huge disparity in pay and QOL between junior and senior pilots just feeds the mentality of lie, cheat, steal to get there before the next guy no matter who you step on. Maybe if we were paid like professionals from day 1 places like GA and JU wouldn't exist.. Just thinking out loud.

The video told me that the industry will be hiring 8,000 pilots per year for the next 10 YEARS!!!

Kind of defeats the purpose if they spoke the truth and had it say..."The airline industry is furloughing 8,000 pilots per year for the next 10 years."

Why some of you folks STILL don't get that this guy (and his many derivative names) only posts flamebait, I'll never understand...

He's pretty weak at flamebait. He should stick to posting YouTube videos, and letting the rest of us add the humorous comments.

I prefer the pros like Instructordude, TankerClown and PoconoPilot.

 

[BoilerUP]

If I had to guess Stifler, some or all of those are the same person behind the keyboard.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

Never thought of that. I wouldn't be suprised. A different screen name for a different airline to flame.

What's up with the Wildcats this year? They going to win the SEC?

 

[brnstrmr]

We all know why that last pilot talking in the video will be a "triple 7" Captain before all of us.

Did we just get our first visual of pokemyhole pilot?

I dunno...they were starting to look top of the SEC class (which ain't saying a whole lot this year) prior to laying the egg against Ole Miss.

The team is very talented, but far too inconsistent...just like Gillespie's team was last year. Guess we'll see what Febuary and into March brings us before running him out of Lexington :nuts:

 

[damnflyboy]

All those dudes just rubbing up on that Rj reminds me of a porno

I'm glad somebody said it. Because I sure was thinking it.

 

[152hvy]

Those guys makes me look like a dirtbag with my oil stained epaulets, no tie or hat....flying my caravan around southern FL. I would probably not get laid if I hang around with those chick magnet uniform wearing Nancy boys..!!

 

[Salukipilot4590]

You know whats also good? Pineapple...

Think about it people!

 

[BUDDHA145]

I just waisted all my Jack Daniels!!! what a brain wash!!!

 

[Abernathy]

How many pilots does it take to preflight a Cessna?

1 pilot, or 3 idiots.

 

[acpilot]

Jet U...wow. At least they're doing their part to help stem the pilot shortage. If there is one thing we need now, it's more pilots!

 

[OUPilot01]

Does anyone know, if in this recession, prospected flight students can still get loans of $100,000 for a $20,000 a year job? I sure hope not so crap bag places like this and Jet U will cease to exist. The industry would be much better off.
