Living and learning to fly in NZ is a great experience. There are many wonderful times to be had out there, on both the flying and the social front, and CTC is a great place to learn your trade. There are some negative points to the NZ side as well, however, and there's nothing wrong with expressing an opinion about them. I know some of the 'bitching' was fully justified when I was there. To be honest, I don't actually see who or what your complaint is aimed at, other than the comments about the Twin Star. Are you just bored in the hold pool or something?
Oh and any moaning at me and my (experienced) thoughts will go blissfully un-noticed
Interesting line to take, when you've just been banging on about having 'the right attitude' in the previous paragraph. "I've had my say, and I don't care what you think." Did you not bother turning up for the CRM classes at AQC?
Hope you feel better after the rant!
