All this hate, they have really nice shirts. Maybe they just wanted a cool shirt, really nice shirts that you can only get by joining the ERAU Flying Eagles Precision Demonstration Squad. Blue Angels with propellers.........and really nice shirts. So go easy on tomorrow's Captains. Seriously......the blue and yellow shirt really pops.

I'm not surprised at all. My guess it's more driven by insurance requirements than anything. But it's bad for business if your flight school loses students on a regular basis.

I think the unsafe part is denying that ability... Some of my most memorable flights were in a single nav/comm equipped old ass 172 flying approaches to mins and loving every second of it!

No. I'm trying to defend the baseless attacks on Riddle. It's comes down to pure jealousy.

Jealousy? Take a laxative and get riddle crap out of your system. I'm most definitely not a grad of that place but am farther in my career than lots of their graduates. The university doesn't make the pilots. Their effort and drive do. I graduated with no college debt from a different 141 program while I instructed with several riddle grads that had north of 100k in loans. We all got to the regionals, major's and legacies at the same time. Riddle didn't give them an advantage.

This is the purest gold I have ever laid my eyes on gentlemen! Whether his intent was satire or serious, LAXative has shown us the epitome of what it means to be an Every R***** Accepted University pupil. Yeah, some ERAU kids I've met are alright, but holy hell am I glad I learned to fly at the hometown airport while chasing tail in big boy college.

Heard the real talented lax bros bring their talent to aviation university sports programs, too
