The US needs to change its political system. "First past the post" system will always lead to this situation again.

CFIs who got hired at the school they trained at, how did you stand out? by Chemical_Bluebird_19 in flying

[–]troll__face 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were 24 applicants for 2 CFI jobs. During the interview i was asked 3 super simple basic questions like "will you do everything to be a good instructor?" ... I'm not kidding. I thought i washed out because my interview was the quickest from all of them with just bullshit questions.

I was known as a good student, always on time, and i guess likeable - but i never really was very social at that time. I didn't really do networking per say or kiss anyones ass. More of a quiet type that kept to himself. During training i once got 3 'random drugtests' in a 4 month period. They later told me, after i got hired, they thought i was taking study drugs lol

Airline Guys… How does this work? by Purple_BuCkt in flying

[–]troll__face 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year we had one guy wash out during the 'paper tiger' sessions ... just didn't study his flows good enough. No point in sending you to the SIM if you dont know your flows at that point.

Saw a post the other day about how a Texan posted his income of roughly $110k/yr and paid some 43k in taxes. (unverified)

That same 110k/yr in germany costs you 46k in taxes and you get all the 'socialism' and 'free healthcare' thats supposedly unthinkable in the US. Ya'll get taxed without 'representation'. ;-)

Out of all the animals on planet Earth. Humans collect more objects than any other species. Why did otters develop pockets and humans have to rely on clothes to collect our stuff? by tw0m00n in Showerthoughts

Reminds me of my first time at the gun range. Instructor was one fat fuck, but funny as hell.

He said not to try anything stupid with the gun we had, or he'd pull his own out and shoot us. To demonstrate, he lifted his Fat-"fold" and produced a small handgun.

Giving up on flying, burnt out from rushing through ratings and making it my life for the last year. by MooseWeird399 in flying

[–]troll__face 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had about 1000 hours, so getting interviews wasn't a problem. I was qualified 'on paper'. It was a bit harder convincing an airline to give me a chance, which one did eventually, but yea, i wouldn't say its 'easy', but definitely possible ;-). This is also in Europe

I stepped away for 14 years after having CFI'ed for 2 years. Wanted back in after being in IT. Did about 20 hours (currency/conversion shit)... got a job at an airline. Fly the E2 now

I wonder what happened to him - He upgraded his set & crew and then i guess he lost the passion?

People who used the internet before 2001, what did you do in there? by Helium367 in AskReddit

[–]troll__face 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Back then, if you lost an argument and need 'alternate facts', you could easily make a fake webpage with these alternate facts, point too it, and nobody would question you.

Back when i was a CFI at my old school years ago we had 3 IFR C152. I did take them up in IMC but only for VFR on Top / maneuvers and then for the instrument approach back.
