Hob78 and Kraken,
So, you can't take it if someone tells you they've been lucky. Well, shall we carry that to its logical conclusion. Wannabes, you'd better stop posting if you're natural pilots or have a good instructor and get your PPLs in 45 hours, because those of us who take longer might feel jealous. If you pass all your ATPL ground exams first go, keep it to yourselves; it's real hard to take for those of us struggling with resits. And we really really don't want to hear about that jet job you just got; it only shows us what a hard time we're having.
Well, you guys said it; I didn't. If you can't cope with others' good fortune, maybe you'd better stop reading wannabes. On second thoughts, maybe you'd better go and live on a desert island. At least until you can manage to GROW UP!!!
