Top Reasons To Date A Pilot

GreekMaverick · 10-04-2009, 03:25 PM

We have extensive training

We make smooth precision approaches

We get up and stay up for hours

We never resign. If we do we crash

We know how to push all the right buttons

We use crew resource management

We have good hand - eye coordination

We can go upside down, right side up, and all around

A little turbulence makes things interesting

Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow aren't just the 4 cycles of an engine

We can go with or without seeing (VFR vs IFR)

We like to go fast

High thrust capabilities

We know a bunch of different manuevers

We know all the fun places

High manifold pressure and high RPM make for a good climb

Unusual attitudes are fun (angles/position not moods)

Mile high club

Commercially rated pilots have more experience and do it better.

Oh yeah, We're Pilots. Nuff said.
Kick the tires and light the fires. Owe!

Building flight simulators, I now know that current pilots run on the reputation of the previous generation of pilots who actually had to fly airplanes. Now, it' s all automated and the planes are run by autopilots practically all the way. Pilots are now more managers than actual pilots.

Not for me I'm a helicopter pilot....No autopilot

The FAA's been through us already.

i'm not a pilot but a friend of me let me fly in his piper for a while and did some G evoking tricks , I've allways loved planes & helicopters , but damn it's pretty fun

Except ofcourse for the dude in the backseat, was his first time flying and practicing stalls really freaked him out lol

As a controller, I couldn't agree more.
