If everything you do is as half hearted as your posts i can imagine why your sat there moaning.
I would imagine the first people to buy a TR were in a situation where they had a mountain of debt and no job. Rather than go outside the aviation industry for pennys they had one last throw of the dice and got a TR.
Like i said, no one wants to pay for a TR but there are people willing to gamble everything for a chance to break in to the industry.
I for one am not going to belittle them or run them down for that, sounds to me like they are the ones that really want it and dont just expect it.
