As far as your theory..... I've never heard of the word "FLAP" used like that.... ever. Sounds like a inferiority driven self insulted rumour.
BTW - Those people whose voices you hear in you rhead... funny thing.... I don't hear them. Also... you know those people you think are always staring at you when you go out in public....... well they never stare at me.
"Paranoia will destoy ya"...... there's heavy metal for you.
FlyboyPhil said:In hopes of getting this thread back on topic.. or nearly so.. I pose the following scenario.
3600 hr pilot, 800 turboprop sic, 400 RJ sic, 1000 piston twin 135 pic.
Seat lock in RJ ending in near future.
Sights set on AS/FedEx
Option A) Turboprop upgrade with the intention of becoming a check airman, slightly better seniority 13k less per year.
Option B) RJ Upgrade, very slim to nil chance of becoming a check airman, bottom of the seniority list, 13k more per year.
Please no rants and raves.. just your honest opinion. Thanks in advance,
Phil
TIGV said:My post about the ' MEMO ', was intended in Jest, there are a handful of Airline training Departments out there who use a training video on CRM where the word : ' FLAP ' is used by the Capt. when describing his newly minted F.O.
' FLAP ' Stands for: " F*cking Little Airplane Pilot ", and is actually funny as he!! in the CRM video, I myself saw this along with John Wayne slapping the sh!t out of his Capt. in some flying movie, during CRM training with Empire at the FedEx training facility in Memphis.
Your response, however, proves once more, that in order to be a pilot and post information in the Hangar, you apparently have to be a complete wanker.
