question:
can i sell on ebay this useless stupid blue license from the CAA?
this is years I am looking for a job with this stupid blue book and I do not find anything except to fork more $ for a type rating with no job guaranty.
the usual scam:ugh:
stay away from this aviation scam, at any level...:yuk:
Since you're more or less famous here I bet a few loaded captains might actually bid :) And since you won't get a job it might perhaps be a good idea to sell it! Will get you cash and ease your mind!

just wait for summer, and see how fuel price will skyrocket.
airlines will be hardly affected ,turning down more and more pilot applications.
to all wanabees, wait 6-12 months and see how the situation will improve.Spending more money in a useless license is foolish.
I would be happy to sell my License to buy me a NORMAL life!

Some cunning financial jiggery-pokery (called the futures market) will mean that some airlines will actually MAKE money from if oil goes north of $90/barrel.

The thing is I was ripped off in ebay before wehn I bought a gold rolex for $50 once and it broke when I went swimming, you must be careful!!
How do we know if your one is real??? does your license have IR MEP or is it SEP IR!! You see you must be careful or poor sod like me will buy this dodegy thing..What sort of monies are you looking for??? And is it FAA or JAA as think JAA is more better as FAA my friend got this one in a box of Corn Flakes so dont think you need buy this one..

I would advise caution A320rider. If you sell something on ebay you must produce the goods. That is, you must have the license book to sell in the first place. Otherwise it's fraud and you might get arrested :D
I thought I'd point this out, just in case you are completely stupid which of course is highly unlikely based on the extremely useful and informative posts you pop up with on a daily basis.

you are wrong, I am totally stupid.I am a retarded!
Stupid to enroll myself in a useless aviation training, but not stupid enough to pay for a type rating with NO JOB GUARANTY.
If I was smart, I wouldn't be a pilot but a normal person with a normal PAID job and with money on my bank account!!!

I'll offer £1.50, but only if I get a ten week course in grammar and spelling thrown in......

£1.50? that's not so bad...
the CAA does' nt give me one peny for their stupid license, I called them and they told me it is not transferable. I asked why? and the upset woman on the phone told me:" because we want more $, moron!!!"
see guys, even your license does not worth very much, and when I think some of you are going to pay for a type rating and pay 20% VAT!!!!:ouch:
Is this a welcome return from Ronchonner?
Some of you lot are too young to remember good ole Ronchonner, I bet! ;)
VFE.

a320..you keep going on about how you would like a normal life with a normal paid job....
well, since you cant get a flying job, what is stopping you from getting a normal paid job while you wait for a flying one to come your way.

I'll second that. 320rider, there's nothing stopping your getting a normal job and a normal life. Call you flying a "failed venture" and get on with your life.

Ha ha good one!:ok:
Unfortunately it's the truth...prices for licences have gone times 4 since Mr JAA came along!
And what you say about VAT is a hard fact. Imagine; your parents paying taxes for the lawyers and doctors studying for years and years and we wannabes paying even more taxes on top of the self financing - 21% in Belgium!
I like flying a lot but sometimes, I wonder if being a surgeon would have been equal exiting?? - and fly for fun in your VLJ!
Keep the faith!
