"YO" Massey maori monkey mon**&^ !!" , If you'd like to do some Human Factors research there is plenty of wreckage from fatil Massey accidents /incidents and reports available to read on the TAIC or caa vector records. that might tell you something about your fello bro's.
and no! they havent been around that long!

chill bro, why you want to burn the brother?

not many massey bros are up to speed as you once were. just chill and have a peaceful mind to settle those nerves.

you had to start somewhere as well, didn't you?

The Maori Mobster

You do have a good point there. Everybody has to learn somewhere. Apart from that everything else is a waste of time. Very good windup by someone in the Massey high circle.

Wish you well in your future. If you have one!!!

If you've got 1000TT, 200 mutli and access to $10k I'd make sure I was updating regularly with the Eagle, orgin, etc and buy myself a steak dinner, wash it down with a old one and buy a answer phone and be patient!!

I sure as F@#K wouldn't be WASTING my borrowed dollars on a bandit rating, $1850 hr sounds like the charter rate!!
Eagle used to only bond a couple of grand for a 5hr rating,ground course,etc. $10k is extortion!

[goldfish64]

Dances with Clouds, I finished at Massey with 225 TT and walked straight into an RPT operation a year and a half ago, flying turboprops with the company paying for my type rating. Im getting really sick of all this massey bashing - the degree is all good and really made stepping up into a turboprop a breeze - as far as "cooking engines", etc goes - operating a turbine engine, although different, is not exactly rocket science.

I dont know what all the fuss is about with Massey. The BAv covers ground subjects in far greater depth than the ASL syllabus taught at aeroclubs, and has a huge focus on CRM. Thats why it takes 3 years and costs more than popping down to the local aeroclub.

The instruction I received was of a very high standard. Combined with the CRM focus of the course I felt as prepared as I could be for my first multicrew position.

So speaking of Human Factors, perhaps the poster who mentioned 'doing some research on Human Factors' might want to check out the difference between aeroclub multichoice pop quizzes and university level Aviation Psychology, Aerodynamics and Performance taught by academically recognised experts in their field. Making unsubstantiated claims about accident rates in one organisation vs another is completely pointless - I wonder what axe you have to grind? There are many ways to skin a cat and doing the hard yards through flight training at Massey is one of the options.

It is the higher level of academic training which got me my first job, which was with an overseas airline preferring degreed candidates and no it wasnt the Garuda deal.

Thanks massey, I love my turbines.

[Borneo Wild Man]

Im not sure Performance is taught by such persons ,but I have flown and known several Massey grads who were just as good as operators as those from the aeroclubs,specificaly better than Ardmore Flying School.
