Comical/Sickening Pheonix East Aviation Video

[M20B_pilot]

I stumbled across this video and it's so wrong on so many levels. At first I laughed, and then it pissed me off:



WTF? You get to wear a uniform with wings and 3 bar epaulets as a student pilot? Here are some interesting highlights-

• The 19yo CFI at 2:23 with the 787 lanyard. I guess he's one of the "highly qualified instructors" and "highly experienced pilots". LOL
  
• Daytona has (supposedly) 360 days a year of excellent flying weather.
• I bet you'll love the guy from South Korea at 8:40 with the "pilot" uniform wearing those funky sunglasses and tennis shoes with white laces.
  
• 11:30 - The pay as a pilot is excellent!
• 12:04 - You get to put on cool aviator sunglasses!

Sorry, maybe I'm being a jerk. Everything about that video is such a joke to me!

I am in no way supporting false advertising, but if you're dumb enough to jump into a career based on a YouTube video without doing additional research, you probably deserve a bit of what's coming to you.

Isn't this where @DPApilot went? Yeah, you're not allowed to touch anything. No, neither me nor the controls.

GET BACK TO CLASS, YOU LITTLE BASTARDS.

I was looking for that video a few days ago.

Nice sleeve tat!! lol At least button your top button and snug up your tie if you're going to pose as a "professional" in the company's advertising pic. Maybe take an iron to your shirt and tuck it in better as well.

If yah got cash for tattoos, you got cash for flight training. I get it now.

What's dumber? PHX East or you for actually watching 12 minutes of that garbage?

I guess you never had the pleasure of CFI'ing in Florida, eh? It's commonplace down there unfortunately. I jumpseated out of DAB for a while and those PEA students would stroll through the terminal in their uniforms- they probably got off on people thinking they were real pilots! It made me laugh, at least.

There's a much better one from a year or two ago.

Edit: found it

All kidding aside guys, for those in the know, are these students receiving good, well organized training in the minimum time without being ripped off?

Hehe You said ripped off. Let's just say there are better options.

 

[tlewis95]

Ughhhh. I made it about a minute into each video. Wayyyyyy too many pilot costumes.

 

[JustinS]

Com'on guys. It's all about that F-1 Visa

Diamond DA42 twin engine plane is 8 miles from the last fix thingy, maintain 2,000 until established on the beam thingy, cleared to clear out your savings. Am I doing this right!?!?!?
