Poor Pilot,

Quit your bitchin'.

It took me eight hard years just to get my CFI. Then I had to compete with Euro's who came to the States, with a pocket full of cash, and who got all the choice multi engine instruction.

Then I got a freight job (there weren't any others...) and had to compete with Euro's, who saw fit to pad their log books by a thousand hours, and who would fly a Baron all night for free. Not to mention over staying their Visas for a couple of years. Meanwhile, I was trying to raise a family on less than a thousand bucks a month.

Then I had to deal with all the low timer females gettin' an airline job by virtue of their gender. Long live equal opportunity....

All the while I kept the faith....

You know, there's always some namby city boy who wants everything RIGHT NOW, and thinks he deserves it. Who ain't got the balls to do the hard work and pay his dues. Who thinks that the world owes him a living.

Shut the @#$% up and put your nose to the grindstone. If you really want to fly, you'll find a way. If you're not prepared to do that, then get out of the way of those who are dedicated to the profession, and who are ready to put up with all the bull!!!!, and make the necessary sacrifices.

Or go be a used car dealer!
