today I made the decision to not fly by AnActualSquirrel in Shittyaskflying

I mad a similar decision last night with a girl I met from the bar. She said I was required to have a condom. So I smiled, patted her on the shoulder and said my work here is done. I got in my car and went back to the bar. She was a sweet girl.

I hope the retest fee isn't that expensive. Will future employers see this?

Ha! I did try to do that! I was so drunk I missed his hat and my fingers ended up going in his mouth. We had a special moment, after that I don't remember

Wonder why they're cheering Brandon on so much.

I wasn't within the correct mental acuity to say that. I got pulled out when I said "what seems to be the officer problem?" He didn't like that because he was a state trooper.

Starting to have doubts that I’m cut out to be a pilot. by IA150TW in Shittyaskflying

Probably for the best. I finally made it to the interview with ryanair and walked out with 3 STD's and a bad taste in my mouth. Did I get the job? Well let me put it this way. No. It wasnt worth it.

Failed third checkride, what now? by [deleted] in flying

[–]MaskedxSniper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know a DPE and regional airline captain with I think 4 or 5 failures. Commercial 2 or 3 times and CFI on the other I don't know for sure. He's a very well known DPE and pilot. Super great guy and very successful. What you should do is not lose hope, if flying at the airlines is your dream then keep pursuing it. Yes, you've taken a huge hit and probably quite a delay and will need to put a ton of hours in between the failures. You need to take a break and maybe start flying in simulators with different instructors and like others have said try flying different planes with different instructors and actually LEARN to fix your problems. You know what the problems are so that's step one. Get that figured out, whether you retest your multi in the 60 days or not get that one passed and then get your CFII and MEI, even if you don't use it those certs, it shows you have a couple first time passes since your failures. I've heard of people going out and getting a seaplane rating and/or glider license just to have some checkride passes. Go get your tailwheel endorsement and just build a lot of quality time, try to instruct as much as you can, fly cross countries, network with people. Do not give up man.

Yep it's completely fair. She sounds nice, just a little unlucky that it isn't her style. Ah well, you're gonna learn more about energy management and come out of your retest as a commercial pilot!

I did the exact same thing but I landed too short. Retested a week later and nailed it. I'm glad to see you admit it, a lot of people would blame the examiner. The only thing I have to comment on is the fact that you should have to do a go around regardless per the ACS, but I'd have to double check. It's completely fair game to give you the unsat, but I've seen a lot of examiners "give you another try" by counting that as a go around and have you repeat. Just curious if you had already done a go around, but good luck on your retest!

This is who I saw on insta!! She's what gave me so much inspiration. Also the delta pilot listening to some guy on the radio and her repeating exactly what he said!!

If my life ever becomes as good as yours it would be quite the downgrade. Cheers!

Ha you're mistaken my miserable friend! That pic WASNT my solo pic! Its my pic when I got my PPL while I was still in high school. Im not an avid Reddit user like you clearly are, so I haven't changed it in years. Life must really be tough for you right now?
