I am not insecure, I just don't come on here and tell everyone just how damn cool and amazing I am. 3 months off and you come back and fly like an ace....
Get over yourself.

The only nervous and insecure outpourings here are from you and your poor attempt at trying to make excuses for your comments. I think you need to grow up or is that "uncool" as well.


Without a doubt the pair of you are insecure having been brow beaten by the system across the road. Check and training must be some sort of industrial weapon. Look at yourselves in the mirror. I am having a swipe at a someone who makes excuses on the line for lack of flying prowess. Very poor leadership. I come off leave and fly like an ace. So would most others at KA. Without the benefit of a practice session most show the same proficiency once a year on a heavy weight V1 cut. Sector currency or the same hour over and over again forty times a month.

Maybe the rumor is correct. KA pilots are too sector current for check and training to be used as an industrial weapon.

Weirdos.

Wow! Follow The Follow Me!
You really are amazing! I am, frankly, in awe of you! I imagine most of us poor, insecure, browbeaten weirdos at CX are!
By your own admission you fly like an ace....I am so impressed! I'm glad to see that you demonstrate such humility and modesty! You must be surrounded by an aura as you glide through the hallowed halls of KA House! I'm now really glad that I turned the Dragonair offer down in favour of working for CX because you would have been a hard act to follow! Of course, that means having to suffer a wide and varied route structure on the 777 fleet flying with a great bunch of pilots...none as skilled as you of course...and enduring possibly the best training department anyone could hope for, but that is a cross I am willing to bear!
Anyway, Ace, may I call you Ace, or do you prefer Captain Ace, Sir? I have to go, now, and attend my Assertiveness and Self Worth course in TST.... May the others that surround you bask in the warm glow of your superiority! Oh, how I envy them!

The Wraith. You still seem insecure. Yes. There are weirdos about too. The number of CX guys here who have leapt to the defense of the rumored bullying tactics and double standards of management explains a good deal.

I'm glad you knocked back KA. I would have warmed to Billy Sex Crime but.

parabellum. The frame of reference of the ace statement would only have out pourings from the insecure. People who take themselves so seriously as to have names such as iceman and wraith ( the ).

Don't get offended. We are constantly made aware of the world class standards at CX by our Chief Pilot.

Ok, whatever....yaaaaaaaaaawn....

Oh, and before I doze off, seeing as how you have your flying skills down to perfection, perhaps you could take some time off to attend some English grammar courses to learn how to string a coherent and grammatically correct sentence together? Just a thought....

Good grief...this guy sounds like a modern day Captain Lorry King.
After CX, Capt King went to SQ, where he was....ahhh, not especially liked by the First Officers
So I was told, anyway.

Capt L King CX

411A If you are going to repeat 'hear say' at least get the individuals name spelt correctly. It was Capt Laurie King, not Lorry. With posts like yours I believe even more strongly in the advice my late Dad gave me, "Son, don't put any store in what others say about another, make your own decision based on your experience of them"

Ahh yes, Laurie.
His reputation proceeded him, alright.
Having met a lot of ex-CX guys over the years, strangely enough...the opinions are all about the same.
Nevertheless, he seemed like a gentleman...from a distance.

I found him alright. He could make or break you depending on how you treated him. The fact that he rose from Sergeant Pilot ranks, didn't go over too well with ex Squadron Leader types but he did have some quirks, to put it mildly.

Well call me crazy but I reckon FtFM (who apparently lives in a fishing village by his location) actually went fishing for a bit of fun one day...

and landed a couple of really nice bites.

It is Pprune after all!

Seriously..... you haven't worked for CX for a very long time. So how would you know if he is STILL a dick or not?
