Well well, it seems some people don't know the difference between a fact and an opinion. If you think I'm a scumbag based upon the fact that I flew cargo for free on a turboprop, that's your opinion and I shrug that off with ease. . .. .Saying that flying for free to gain valuable experience (which it still is -- I did it for the experience, not merely the hours I could write down in my logbook) being wrong, that's another opinion. I'm not personally threatening you or anyone so leave your emotional rants at the door please.. .. .Once again, don't give me that hypocritical "crap person" due to morals. If the only moral failure in my life is to fly for free, then I should be lucky (I don't think it's immoral). So how about the people that break the speed limit, cheat on their spouses, drink and drive (or fly), are racist or worse? Sanctimonious BS.. .. .Brings me to another point (food for a whole other topic):. .. .Would you rather have a 185-hour pilot fly the right seat of a Boeing 737 or A320, paid, flying pax, or should that be someone with actual experience, say 1500+ hours? Bearing in mind that straight outta school = zero experience, only training.
