Obama tells blacks to 'stop complainin' and fight

That is not true! A license in aviation does not mean you are "ready". It means you satisfied the minimum requirements to start accumulating flight hours with that license!!!!!!! Oy vey.

It makes ready enough to fly a 737 into a building in only 7 months

But aviation is so much more complex than nursing, remember?

It is. And that is why "getting a license" doesn't mean shit. And I'm not comparing aviation to nursing. I'm not 12 years old and I don't have "my job is better then your job" arguments on a message board with total strangers. I'm telling you that you know little to nothing of the aviation industry or what getting a license means in that industry.

I'm not defending Lucrum here. I'm defending aviation!

Yes, in fact my sister-in-law makes $106 per hour. More than I do.

RCG works in a hospital inserting catheters, performing enemas and dispensing aspirin. All the while claiming it's a more challenging, technical and difficult job than flying jets.
So far you seem to be the only one dumb enough to fall for it.

You do not know where I work or what I do, nor what I have done. Yes, being an RN is far far more complex than flying an airborne taxi.

Yes and I could steal Mario Andretti's car and drive it in into a brick wall. What's your point kid?

What is hilarious about the Google passing as knowledge statement is that you can Google RN and the MINIMUM they will tell you is 18 months!!!

Just sayin Mav, just sayin.

Compared to a decade or more to become an airline captain.

And you think this makes nursing a job for exceptional people?

Like I said you're comparing apples to oranges when talking about getting a PPL or any other basic ratings to actually climbing into the seat of a jet.

If it were that complex, a child could not fly a Cessna Cub, and it would not take 13 weeks for commercial licensure. It takes longer to be a GM certified mechanic than it does to fly a jet. Come on Mav, you should just let this go, you have no case.

Ron, again, you keep harping on this license issue. Let me ask you a question. Would you fly a commercial airliner where all the pilots "just got a license"? Just answer me that one question. It's a new airline called Fast Jet and they are offering really low airfares. The only catch is all the pilots where hired as soon as they got their license irregardless of any other qualifications. Would you fly that airline?

Quote from RCG Trader:

More importantly is that you assert some gap in getting a commercial license for a pilot and actually being one. In allied health, if you can actually get the license, then you are the real deal.

I think this is the crux of the argument.

So a doctor fresh out of med school is ready to perform brain surgery?

You're in essence saying that's the same as a nurse graduating and sticking a thermometer up someones butt unsupervised the next day

It shows how easy it is to learn how to fly .Just because you have to fly thousands of hours to get a good job doesn't mean you need to be a genius to learn/know how to do it

What IQ is required to perform an enema on an elderly patient?
