Yes but Piperindian you do need a CPL to do air taxi, etc etc. I really cant understand what you are on about. These guys are working hard like most to achieve their dream of becoming a pilot, whether it be airlines or something else. And you seem to be knocking their confidence in getting a job because of your own experience. Like I said before,everyone is different and everyone has their chance. You have obviously blown yours so let others have theirs...
What ever you do guys keep working at it...its well worth it. From a personal point of view, I put the effort in and now fly the 737 for a decent airline. A Few friends didn't want to fly commercially, they wanted to instruct...its crap money but they enjoy it and get to fly - and their view is that they get paid for doing what they love, instead of being stuck in an office with higher management breathing down their neck!. Whether it be a 737 or a 152, its all flying and all well worth the effort - and a great buzz!
