Actually, he knows a lot about aviation and was probably a CFI at one time or another.
Based on his posting history, Skyhigh's only goal at APC is to stop as many of you as possible from persuing the career. A career that he feels failed him. Whether there is any truth to his posts is irrelevant to him....he just wants you to read his stuff.
Sometimes he comes up with something at APC that is worth reading. This thread just isn't it...
Sometimes I say "newbie, read Skyhigh cause this is the worst that can happen to you and you should be aware of it". There IS value in that. As far as this thread goes, though, he's way off base.
Pilots sweep a lot of ugliness about aviation under the rug in order to prop up what is really a poor overall career choice. My only goal is to prevent the continued spread of misinformation that comes from the denial psychosis of self deluded pilots. (present company excluded)
My aim is to drag all the unattractive points about an aviation life out into the light for all to see. Everyone deserves the full and whole story.
