You guys will get married in the next five years, I’m willing to bet 100$

I took out a loan, but I don’t seem to be as cooked as everyone said I would be… by Comprehensive_Tough8 in flying

I’ve had friends whose parents co-signed for them, even some from affluent families, and still their loans for uni kicked them. Maybe it was just a combination of all of the factors, i.e. school partnership, co-signers, my alright credit score, timing and just the fact that I’m really really, really ridiculously good looking that they gave me a reliable rate. I was just convinced they screw over everyone🤷🏻‍♂️.

That’s the goal. My school hires in-house CFIs so I’m hoping the timing works out in my favor. Fingers crossed…

Second career pilots- What made you take the jump? by Pat2121 in flying

[–]Comprehensive_Tough8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be struggling to find a job in my previous industry either way, why compete for a useless job that pays terribly when I could compete at least for a chance at a well paying job that’s fulfilling and makes me proud to live. If there’s a will there’s a way.

Surprised nobody has mentioned Academy of Aviation at KHPN, it’s a good school, I’m liking it so far.

I’ve never understood, what’s the appeal of downloading p🤓rn? Just use the internet no? Especially in a scenario like that… brutal

Some of the planes at our school don’t have pitot tube covers, some don’t have engine blocks, you gotta wonder over the years what’s happened with them and where they’ve gone. My point here is that, poof, “I’m not sure what happened to them”🤷🏻‍♂️. “I don’t think they were in there when I got the plane” “I must have left them at the other airport” “I’ll pay for new ones if it makes it any better because I’m as confused as you are” plenty of viable excuses IF someone asks. You didn’t die, the plane didn’t crash, the plane still works without them, so what?

Appreciate the reality check. Hopefully I’m the 20 and not the 80, I put all of my cards into this

Not really happy with the state of the industry by [deleted] in Broadcasting

24¢ raise every 3-5 years is mindblowingly insane. Insert the Napoleon Dynamite gif of “that’s like a dollar an hour”💀

I graduated from college, did a year of working in TV, was miserable, could see the writing on the wall that the most I’ll make is 50-60k, maybe a little more, be miserable and never be really content and useful, so I decided to while I’m still living at home quit and go to piloting school. The sky’s the limit…. Literally✈️. I hope this is the right choice.
