Yes i say the people telling me i am not humble are wrong because i am humble, i am as respectful to the more experienced pilots as i can be. The people disagreeing with me here have a problem with my attitude towards those who have frustrated me. That is understandable and completely ok.
Im not here for a popularity contest man i just want to stop being insulted as a pilot just because i havent worked 121 before.
Attitude is alot of it but most deff not everything, i think everyone here would agree that some people get their tickets and still dont have the 1st clue about some things, so skill and knowledge also have alot to do with it.
You are proving our point by all of your retorts. You post on a public message board a message that is filled with attitude and anger and you get upset when people push back. Of COURSE we don't kow you. If thats what you want....people to know you and judge you by different means...then stop posting on a public site and scratch your head when you get responses like you have.
Saying your humble and respectful doesn't mean you are when your posts oooze with attitude and a lack of humbleness. Actions speak louder than words. You might want to start LISTENING instead of speaking and you'll learn alot more.
You see in most endeavors, and 121 is no exception, there is something called a right of passage. I went through it, we all went through it. Part of that is that the more experienced guys like to teach, like to kid, like to see your fortitude. Your going to need to learn to let things roll of your back with a grin and LEARN instead of reacting like you have here with attitude, irritability and being easily offended. The more you act like that the longer that right of passage will be. You'll rapidly grow a thick skin or sink.
BUT, youth usually likes to learn the hard way no matter what people say so good luck. You'll need it if and when you get to this level with your current attitude.
