Spoken like a true Gen X-er; blames fundamental misuse of punctuation on a computer |
I certainly wouldn't employ someone who's job it is to communicate if their punctuation and grammar was garbage Happy days! |
You're telling the story ;) happy days indeed.

In answer to D'pirates question, a few Astronauts have been accepted and have commenced training.
The entry requirements were "15,000hrs total time and significant Check and Training experience... " Based on the few who have been accepted, these requirements do not appear to be a requirement at all. :confused: |
This is rather an interesting thread now, some humor has crept in so hopefully the few whom obviously lead sad lives get a laugh:ok:
'Professor' nicely put mate:ok: 'JR' that's okay buddy one can never argue with the man on the other end of the radio although sometimes I wonder what Weeties packet they got their licenses from, prolly the same as mine :E. With not having made it thru form 5 it hasn't held me back too much, being dumb has it's uses I can plead dumb & the courts will let me go, I can be dumb & the few sad ones here get their jollies & gives them purpose so all in all there's a place for us dummies:) 'Mastema' all that is going to create is a steeper cockpit gradient, you know the 'them & us' mentality having that many hrs doesn't guarantee a thing in some ways. No doubt this thread will be closed 'cause we have drifted off into space here away from the main subject & we can't have that now can we?:E Wmk2 |
and it is a profession, not a trade. |
Wal, you made it a year further than me mate :ok: lol
|
Christ 'JR' & here I thought I was the dumbest one amongst these sad pages:E
Wmk2 |
Nahhhhhhh mate, dumb as dog****, how can I prove it? I did a panel beating apprenticeship when I left school, dumbas bro:ok:

I find it amusing, actually pathetic, how those using crap grammar defend themselves.
Hey, you edumacated grama polise should chill and leave us unedumacated, suffring, lower class, "I left school at kindergarten" rabble alone. Poor us. Anyways, we gots our msg across so who gives a toss if we's cant string two correkt words togever. "Near enough is good enough" never killed anybody. I suppose low standards in communication has no correlation to anything else. Oh, chill mate. Its only grama. You cants compare bad grama to nots doing your job proper like. "I'm not a professional aviator, I'm just a tradie".....yep, pretty much sums up your attitude. Nothing like aiming for the least of your ability. NowThatsFunny |
Mabbe some cant be forked since their typing on a ipad
:bored: |
Seeing as this thread started on the subject of astronauts - do any of you who can't be bothered mastering the written word of your native language think that any astronaut ever got selected without a very good command of at least one language? Be it Russian, American-English or whatever, surely any reasonably intelligent person can learn to write one language with a minimum of grammatical errors? Some manage several and still have enough surplus mental capacity to fly aircraft.
Btw, I left school at 15. You don't need an elite or even a long education to learn a few words and punctuation rules. Blame it on the iPad? If so, how will you ever get around the FMC? When sorting job applications I ALWAYS binned any that had not been properly proof-read for errors. It reduced the pile to manageable proportions. Now that recruiting is mainly in the hands of human remains type people, you can bet they do much the same to reduce their workload. So all you who claim that poor grammar does not matter in aviation, don't die wondering why you never got that job interview. |

Thanks MASTEMA, if those recruited so far do not actually meet the advertised requirements, then what are the special talents that they will be bringing to Tiger?

Sorry 'Eclan' can't give away any 'TRADE" secrets, trade being the optimum word here:ok:
Some are really hanging on tight here :) Wmk2 |
Holy crap.
The grammar police really are perfectionists. Are you guy’s perfect pilots also? Or when driving a car. Ever boiled the kettle over? Slipped in the rain? Life must be awesome being so damn good. |
The grammatical construction and interpretation of company orders, orders from regulators and government legislation is vitally important in this highly regulated industry. Screw it up and it can get very expensive!
|
It's probably a case of aiming to be perfect rather than near enough is good enough.
|
The best commas are the ones between ,000's.

Are you guy’s perfect pilots also? |
