Thumbs down War On Irak

My dear fellow pilots,
My little finger told me a war on Irak is coming.
what does it mean? 1.fuel price higher 2. flight ticket more expensive 3.less passengers 4. less planes 5.less airline job and number 6:Flight schools are predicting a shortage of pilots...
forgot your glasses:
FLIGHT SCHOOLS ARE PREDICTING A SHORTAGE OF PILOTS

If WW3 does kick off, they'll need every fit young man they can get.

Ronchonner,

Same old subject, but not barking mad this time. Are you calming down in your old age? Whatever happened to your command on a Metroliner in the US and all the girls you were getting? Or did that go the same way as your obsession with yellow tattoos on dicks....

Anyway, glad to see that you're bored with trolling, and you've seen the light with regards to getting a JAA licence. Chin up, matey.

cheers!
foggy.

personally I dont think the JAA licenses are the solution to any wanabees wanting to fly as an airline pilot in the futur.
but in my case, is it due to my US/worlwide experience if i can look ahead positively and I invite everybody to follow this way (FAA/JAA )before to jump directly in a high cost JAA"training".

As well as declaring war on "IRAK", may we also declare war on poor spelling? IraQ must be one of the easiest country names to spell - unless you use abbreviations like "USA" - which has to be abbreviated to "US" for most of it's natives, anyway!

WAr on Iraq will not make us short of pilots at flying schools - only an upturn in the industry will do that.

Hey don't bust the guy's balls over his spelling - English is probably not his first language. Such a waste seeing as there is so much other ammunition in replying to Gorky's rants.

Anyone worried about a war on Iraq should just hope that if the Yanks go for it, do it soon and get it over with quickly. It took airlines between 12 and 18 months to fully recover last time and the bigger, long term picture remains rosey.

Keep it up Gorky, I find you amusing.
