Would the successful candidate be expected to overstep the law and the boundaries of common sense? When it all turns to **** and the authorities pull your license (or lock you up), will those who expected you to risk your livelihood for their benefit be nothing more than a small cloud of dust and a fading doppler howl disappearing into the distance, or will they stand by you in court while you try to defend your actions?

High School Diploma/Equivalent, to fly a pipercub

See the academic cancer has hit light aircraft now.

Well that would count me out. I left school at 15, with nothing and I flew heavy jets. Hold both JAA ATPL and FAA ATP. Maybe I should hand them in.

To me that is funny.
