Sissy flying: One approach and landing.

Pray tell me what a real pilot is ?

Off topic:mad:

You're right. Sorry.

The picture with caption was pretty funny though..
hehe....:D

ftroop you did not deserve my rude comments, I regret having posted them.
The disscusion of time is ridiculous. most mins are insurance related anyhow, with the exception of Airlines. Here's the thing If I own an Airline and want to cut payroll cost down the road hire lowtimers they won't be upgradable for years wich saves me tons of money. Can they fly ? maybe maybe not they do however have to get thru my training dept and IOE. If I have a training dept that can actually train they will be ok to ride in the right seat. A good IOE capt. can teach em about the line its self. What is gonna be a problem is my captains who have to basicly operate as a single pilot while enduring an FO who has very very little practicle experience. Does not mean the FO will always be a liability however, so I wont be losing any sleep over the fact I have hired such a pilot.
500 hour pilots don't have experience but they can learn just like we all have.

Thank you sir. Agree completely. There are many different routes to becoming a professional pilot. All are valid. The key is quality of training by CFIs (where most of us started), the hard work of sim instructors during checkout, and finally continuous mentoring by experienced Captains. The attitude that each imparts is crucial. I often wish that all who fly (or have flown )professionally would address each other as if they worked together, there would be less controversy. But then again we are human, competitive, and in the case of the younger generation, have a case of raging hormones. :cool:
