Advice for young pilots

If I may add one...

When the weekend warrior says he does not have a visual but has you on TCAS, he does not have you.

I love hearing that. Didn't know the 172 had TCAS.

I seriously get that all the time.

"Tally-ho! We got them on the fishfinder!"

Usually they're in something better (but at the same time beyond their means) than a 172.

 

[matt152]

Maybe they mean TIS. But TCAS sounds cooler 'cause that's what the 121 guys say.

Avoid the clap.

Clearly you've never flown in AK.

haha, not quite AK, but ill just say you get "creative" when you're based at a field with no IAP's

 

[Stomp16]

Avoid the clap.

But papa Waco, what if you don't know until it's too late? What will I do then?

Guess it's true that they don't teach condom use down south eh?

Typical lib-pinko-pansy...all whining about condom use and such. What's the fun in that? Where is the risk-taking excitement? Go ahead and use condoms, eat right, don't smoke, and fly airplanes with nosewheels if you want to...but it is the lib-pinko-pansy thing to do!

- I don't hurry for anybody.

- No matter how long you have flown a particular way, someone that makes more money than you will want to change it. Go with it. It's not a big deal.

• To go further with that thought, there are 1001 ways to fly an airplane. All of them are correct.
• When you own the airplane you can fly it however you wish but, if you are being paid then fly it like the company wants.

If you are a PPL student, please do not tell your instructor that he/she is wrong becuase your 'dad's friend who flies a jet' said this ______ <---(insert bull-sheet here).

- If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, you should make an ugly woman your wife.

 

[Polar742]

I can only add 2 things, as I only know 3.

1) As soon as you think you know something, you will have an experience that will teach you otherwise.

2) There is no reason to bend the metal and/or get hurt due to a decision you made.

-- There more to life than flying.

- If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, you should make an ugly woman your wife.

Or better yet, none at all!

Great advice Boris!

Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go gel my hair into a spikey pattern, put on my backpack, insert my iPod headphones and head to the airport!!!

Hey now, I'm one of those San Francisco lib-pinko-comie-bastards and I'm addicted to TAILWHEEL all the way!!! :rawk::rawk::rawk:
