Just wanted to get an answer on that one since it was dodged in the last thread.

And what is the tree/moron ratio in Mo?
I mean for real dude... you are asking something that only a very few would know at DCA and those have contractual obligations to keep such numbers for themselves.
It is easy to beat the drum that "it was dodged" if you already know you will never get exact numbers from people in the know. Plus we all know if you would get numbers than of course you would say that you don't believe them or whatever depending you liked what you read or not... go give it a break already and count the trees or something. There is really nothing to do in Montana? Are you going to get a life?
What is the rate for 61 schools? Can you tell? I can't.
The one thing you could do though is to post that video in your avatar if you have a link to that. Or at least a link to the picture.

P.S. i dont have a link to the avatar unfortunatly. I found the pic somewhere out on the internet but i forgot where i downloaded it from.

Hey don't take it too personal, but for too many of us it seems you have nothing else to do but to come here and light the fire. I don't know what is your motivation, but you don't see me doing the same thing in the FBO forum. Is there such? I don't go out of my way trying to bash schools that I don't like. I am not much of a fan a p61 but I respect everyone working/training in p61 or anywhere else and I am sure there are plenty awesome p61 schools. Still, IMHO the typical p61 FBO can’t compete with DCA but just as the example de727 posted shows that yes it is possible to make it from a good p61 place for cheap. Of course we don’t hear about the p61 horror stories, they don’t come in chunks. There are so many p61 operators that only a few manage to make a name for themselves. I am sure it is hard to find a good one right from the beginning, who will also make you study to the level that will make you competitive on an interview. Your typical customer in p61 is not the airline wannabe. It is the 30-40 years old guy who wants to do the weekend $100 burger run. You can’t force him learn the METAR if it comes in plain language on DUATS. Hence you won’t practice it either as a CFI.
I have expressed this many times here, I don't mind criticism but make it truthful and accurate, and speak from a personal background if you can or if not than indicate so and express your "opinion". But you are so frequent here that you became a topic of one of my conversation with one of my ex CFI a few weeks ago while they were waiting for their CHQ interview (both hired btw… I guess it does work.)
You probably post more in this forum than anyone else actually training at DCA. You have a personal war going on against DCA with de727. Fine… whatever... at least we entertain each other. Just don't think that all those people in the program who post against your “opinion” are all liars, undercover DCA agents, brainwashed students, and marketing guys after a bonus. Not true and I am glad that I see more positive posts here. I wish everyone from DCA would come here and pitch in, you would be surprised about the bitching but the bottom line would still be: “it was worth”. That is what I keep hearing anyways.
BTW I have nothing against Mo, I have heard it is one of the most beautiful place in the States. Can’t wait to see it for myself.
The avatar is a picture that I have seen some 15-20ish years ago in a newspaper. I can't recall the exact footage but at that time it made me laugh, especially the guy being busy getting away. I hope all came out of that ok. It brought back memories. That is why I have asked. Thanks anyways.
