Prostitution - defined

PJ, you almost got it right. It's not prostitute, (oldest profession), slut or skank (close). Actually, the correct indentification for this species is CRACK WHORE.

See, it goes like this: Volunerable young inexperienced person pays thru the nose and becomes high on the drug (flying). Likes it so much that he/she becomes addicted. Runs out of money and turns to selling his/her body for 15 small just to get a fix (the job). The pusher realizes this and pretty soon they are doing it for free. Just bend over and grab your ankles (the industry pay issue).

Like the young lad who went to Nassau and was easily talked into going to Gulfstream for 15 large (company commission?) and get a type (? more like SIC letter) in an aircraft that he cannot even qualify as PIC in. All because he was intoxicated during the interview (not a job offer in writing).

To be competitive in the island market, you need to have 1200-2000 hours TT 500 MEL (most have more). Plus, you need to have someone who will walk your CV in the door of the CP. I do not know you. You get no consideration from me. Remember boys and girls. It's not what you know (and 600 TT ain't nothing) it's who you know.

Here's a concept. Take your flying ability to your local military recruiter. Best free education you can get plus they pay you to fly!!
