Read Before Polling! Are You A Flying Pilot On Avcan?

Post by critical engine »

Curious to know what percentage of posters here are actually working/flying pilots.

. I’m talking, working pilots for working companies, or farmers with their own 172’s ect.

This does not include full time rampies with a licence, or those in school, retirees or anyone who used to fly but does not anymore, for whatever reason.

It would be great to get an accurate count

eg: If you are managment/ramp/fuel/csa/ame/tc/, and also fly for your company, are current, then you are a pilot

Son, someday you will make a girl very happy, for a short period of time. Then she`ll leave you and be with new men who are ten times better than you could ever hope to be. These men are called pilots.

Yes and yes.

If you are able to get the thing off the ground and back on to the ground safely all by yourself I'd call you a pilot.

I hope I haven't restarted the "pilot vs. aviator" argument crap.

Why not Haz? Atleast get a Rec. Liscense... I figure if I don't decide to fly for a living I'll atleast do it to see the skies once in while.
