: Mike Isaksen writes: The pilot licensing process is not restricting you, lack of money is restricting you. Both are. I have a strong aversion to useless bureaucracy and credentialism, and aviation is rife with both. But it is also true that I have no money. Your desire to (as you said) fly a King Air under IFR in and out of IMC is shared by almost everyone. A Baron is very different from a King Air. No it isn't. They are both airplanes and they both fly in exactly the same way. I'm only interested in the Baron. If I want to fly something bigger, I'll fly a Boeing jet. You will never fly anything, fjukkkkkwit. Your distain for recreational VFR flying is however shared by almost no one in this newsgroup. Because most people in this newsgroup are hobbyists who like recreational VFR flying. Many of them probably don't even know the names of all the instruments on a typical Baron panel. And many pilots look upon the licensing steps as challenges met and experience earned. I look upon them as a waste of time. Of course you do, you're a coward. Some people enjoy jumping through hoops; I don't. There is one way that the licensing process is restrictive in a very good way: It protects the safety of the public. It places legal and functional hurdles before those with "too much money & too little judgement", although it leaves wiggle room (Kennedy, Munson, Lidle). And most importantly it gives the public comfort that the person sitting at the front of the metal tube has met the minimum standards to pilot them to a safe destination. Then why are there so many GA accidents? there aren't, fjukkwit. And you seem to want to bypass all that, stand with the people who have walked that road, and insist upon being taken as an expert. Not here, not ever! I learned long ago that those who feel they must "pay their dues" spend their entire lives being trampled by those who know better. Bwawhahwhahwhhahwhahwh! Says he from the bottom of the dumpster. Way to go bankruptcy boi Bertie |

: Jeff Dougherty writes: And for that matter, I think I've heard of people taking their PPL in complex aircraft and getting the endorsement at the same time they got their license. It's not common, but I believe it's been done. That's what I'd want to do. Train and get all necessary certifications in the very aircraft I plan to fly. Then you're an even bigger idiot than I previously thought. That's actually a good question, and I had to do some searching to get the exact answer. (This is all based off of the Mass. Medical Board's rules, if anyone is interested.) There don't seem to be any conditions that are automatic DQs, but any physical or mental condition which in the Board's opinion could interfere with the practice of medicine is grounds for denial of a license to practice. Short, but it potentially covers a lot of ground. Sounds mostly like certain mental illnesses and contagious diseases. What, like the one you have? So lepers and psychotics need not apply. But hypertension, migraines, a single seizure at the age of 12, or a prescription for an anxiolytic 20 years ago presumably are not obstacles. Piper Cub a piece of junk? I exaggerate for emphasis, but it's a bit too small and primitive for my tastes. It's not primitive, fjukkwit. And you couldn't handle one. Man, where's your sense of beauty? Yellow is just not my color. Seriously, to each his own. But if anyone offered me a chance to get in an honest-to-Yeager Piper Cub and buzz around, I'd be out the door so fast you'd never see me going. You have a problem with Beechcraft Barons? I don't, but you couldn't even get one to the end of the runway. Fjukkwit. Bertie |

You don't fly in similation, you sit in front of a computer. Fjukkwit I just went through a similar "discussion", with an MSFS simmer on a different group who's never flown a real anything, yet is adamant that his flight models are "totally realistic", and he's a "natural" at flying. Even though he's never flown anything, he personally tweaks his flight models for perfect reaction. He "flew" a 757/767 full motion simulator ONCE, and apparently is ready for his type rating. My suggestion to spend $49-99 on a Discovery Flight in an actual airplane simply to feel the controls, motions, and sounds, was passed off as useless, as he can't afford his own plane and has known other pilots who never used their license. Is there some sort of subliminal brain washing routine coded into random copies of MSFS? G |

He flies about as well as you would expect. Badly. Bertie |

He may be right. Or he may not. But without testing him in a certified full-motion sim, there's no way to know for sure. Some pilots have to practice a lot to become good, but that doesn't mean that all pilots do. Is there some sort of subliminal brain washing routine coded into random copies of MSFS? It's more a matter of keeping an open mind. Astronauts never train in a real spacecraft before the actual day of the launch, and they seem to do pretty well. They did well even in the days before good full-motion simulators. And one serious problem with piloting the Shuttle was corrected by having astronauts practice it in a sim until they got it right. |

That's not enought, fjukktard.There are many who make it through the sim and still fail,. he wouldn't make it throught the sim. Believe me. Some pilots have to practice a lot to become good, but that doesn't mean that all pilots do. Practice has nothing to do with it fjukkwit.

Bwawhahwhahwhahwhahwhahwhahwhahwhahwhahhwhahwhahwh ahwhahhwhahwhahw! Astronauts never train in a real spacecraft before the actual day of the launch, and they seem to do pretty well. That's because they are all experienced pilots, fjukkwit. But you wouldn't know, because you have zero experience. And you always will have zero experience. Bertie |

Anthony, let's be clear: the only thing you fly is a chair. You would'nt
have a clue as to how to even open the door on a Baron, let alone fly one. |

: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- From: Mxsmanic The Baron doesn't seem particularly difficult to fly, although perhaps it would seem so to someone who has only flown small single-engine Cessnas. You have got to be pretending to be a total idiot because I really have a tough time believing that anyone who says things as stupid as you do is not under the supervision of a rational adult. We have no evidence that he isn't, actualy. BTW, I would love to take out a $10 million life insurance policy on you, take you up in a REAL Baron, and then bail out. It would be the quickest, easiest money I ever made. I'd prefr something slower. There's always the chance he could catch up to you in a Baron and hit you.
