As engineers we dont buy our jobs but earn it.
Folks,
(Thinx - I know I shouldn't do this but I can't help myself.)
Connedrod's great idea above could maybe save airlines a motza --- as we only buy our jobs, nothing else involved, apparently.
HR -- Why not just put all the pilot jobs out to tender, lowest price/best bid gets the job, airline cadets with wealthy mummies and daddies (oft complained about on pprune) could buy an instant Captain's job. All too easy, can't understand why it hasn't already been tried.
Before I conclude, Lead Balloon, I must disagree, Only the Judea Log Book Statement People's Front (Provisional) have THE KNOWLEDGE to Maintain and Service the One True Path to Airworthiness.
And almost forgot, something I can agree with Conner Rod:
YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRURTH..
Indeed, I probably never have, because, to tell the absolute genuine truth (as opposed to all the other kinds of truth) I don’t have a clue what a TRURTH is? Is it furry, feathery, got scales, does it bite? Is it Epicurean of Episcopalian, thespian of homosapien , mammalian or mammarian. Please Explain.
Tootle pip!!
