Why didn't you become a proctologist?

Didn't think it was a good career. And after talking with a few pilots, I was right.

What the fuck do you mean "why"?

Because I don't have $90,000 that's why you fuckhead.

It can cost close to $250,000 to be fully qualified on modern jet aircraft, you think I have that kind of money?

lack of ambition

You have 10 seconds to name something dumber than travelling by aircraft.
>protip: you're an idiot

It's not that good and you need money for the license.
The best option is to study something that actually makes money and lets you have a nice job, then use that money to pilot as a hobby and do what you want.

Why would I want to be a bus driver loser ya a bus in the sky

I did but it was for the space force, faster than is very possible and gravity can be overcome threw electrical principals because electricity and gravity are tied together

Because I was 19 and decided “the strong shall stand, and the weak shall fall by the wayside”.

Light^

Not to jab at my pilot buddies. Thank you for the help.

Because I have -4.75 On my glasses and this was relevant back then.

Ah so you are insane

What looking glass?

I like play war thunder(ground units), and I can tell you pilots are the biggests faggots I ever seen in my life.

nice rhyme.

Are those real patchs?

tankfats have no friends

Yup. They sell them outside Area 51!

define pilot, because i am a pilot

I'm color blind kid

not a buttpilot

Worst cowboy name ever.

Shits expensive yo

combat flight sim says i am

im not that either, im just a pilot who cant fly commercially

Expensive as fuck.
I better save up and buy a Cessna.

Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

I've got a pilot's license. It wasn't expensive at all. It only cost me $500.00 and I was certified on a website.
> lrn2web

Now I'm afraid of flying, lol

I became a canopy pilot.

Because I travel astrally

No interest.

Disgusting pay

I can do the best 30 degree climbs in a c-130, an and my combat landings are amongst the world's best.
I'm rating on over 1000 aircraft, with 7000 hours in the sky.

I don't have 10 grand lying around for certification, instrument training, and BFR.
I don't have enough money to buy a single-engine piston aircraft, the cheapest aircraft available.
I would really only be interested in flying twin engine or turboprop aircraft, which are significantly more expensive. Can't afford those either.

VFR?

I did

No, biennial flight review.
Basically you have to go up with a CFI every 6 months to stay current and not have to re-certify.

Every two years*

pajeets run the aircraft manufacturing industry now

I told my high school counselor I wanted to be a pilot and she mentioned “airborne bus driver “. I’m glad she said it.

If any of you UK-based nerds are considering a career change, and doing it in the most baller way possible, the RN has just opened up applications to anyone under 32. Rotary pipeline is pretty much full, so if you want fast jet, now's the time to join. Get in before the new Top Gun convinces all the kids to get down the AFCO!

All you need is a couple of A-levels and to be able to waddle 1.5 miles. Not being a cunt helps, too. Well worth it!

Fly Navy

I am one
Rated on over 1000 aircraft? Seems legit

Had 8 million other things I also wanted to do, plus when I was in high school I had a "change of heart" about politics which meant no Air Force for me....

I am one. I lost my medical. cant fly anymore. easy fun job.

I've never had an interest in becoming a pilot. My brother is a pilot, though.

You need to look at it threw theosophy and x-steganography, then you’ll start to understand Alice. Lol

I did become a pilot though

Dropped out of college and enlisted like an idiot.
Might privately pursue my license one day, but I have more important financial obligations

Co-pilots

Colorblind

Red/ green color deficient. Crushed my world.

go you!
what airplane do you fly?

so you're the family disappointment?

Because there are far less expensive ways to kill celebrities.

this

I settled on nursing instead. not ultimately what I wanted to do. It pays bills and I have a decent lifestyle. being a commercial pilot it's a rich kid's niche, mostly the reason why there's such a high demand and so few candidates.

It's the fucking Matrix.

What I wanted out of piloting amounted to 1.5k of hours. Not to mention subscribing my soul to a milliary contract for ~ 5 years.

I was able to secure a programmer job, that allows me to run as many VR sims with Arma 3's planes, as I wanted, and be paid considerably more, not to mention, being able to wake up next to my wife every night.

...

What area of nursing?

Acute care (ICU)

Same for me

time.com/5772328/american-plane-crash-afghanistan-taliban/
nytimes.com/2020/01/19/world/europe/ukraine-plane-crash-victims.html

are you in the US?

Yup

Because I'd probably fly the damn thing straight into the white house.

lmao you can get flight training for like about 50 grand depending on where you go and it's fine

I don't know if it's just me, as I can't bring it up at work w/o stirring up shit, but I notice that male nurses seem to be the preference now. obviously they can't outwardly discriminate so it's a subconscious thing I presume.

Because there is no science keeping those things up. Fucking magic foolishness.

'depending on where you go'
just goes to show you didn't do 10 minutes of research.
It's about 92k to meet the BARE MINIMUM (multi engine jet) requirements for the FAA.

Cool

don't fly then. cheaper tickets for the rest of us

regular flight training is ppl, instrument, commercial, then cfi ratings (probably). after you do those you build 1500 tt then get your atp license and you can start working for regional airlines. build up enough pic time with a regional (long as you're flying turbine aircraft which you probably are) and you can move up to a major/legacy.
the training the airlines give you does not come out of your pocket.

>No science
What is Bernoulli's principle and Newtons 3rd law

This moron thinks you pay until you get 1500 hours. I'm Canadian and only spent 80k canadian for ppl,CPL, multi and instrument.

user may have been doing scared-to-fly guy.

wish i could have, but i'm too tall and my eyesight is too bad.

That's not a problem anymore. Unless you're colourblind, glasses, contacts and corrective surgery are all fine.

it's pretty good. make enough money to live pretty much wherever i want in the country and live financially comfortably, swaths of time off, the job itself is enjoyable

You’re not wrong. Male nurses are heavily prioritized. A guy on the other shift has had about 5 no call no shows in the last month and he’s still employed

I smoke weed so nothing happens

Do I have to study and pass tests tho.

Don’t wanna end up Kobe’d

I always hired pilots to fly my planes. I would sit in and fly on a long trip. Prefer to sit in back and have drinks though

poor eyesight. Also, i prefer to look a man in the eye when I kill him. So I wear my glasses on the field of combat.

>why didn't you become a pilot?
DONT REMIND ME
