Bummer…I thought I got all 5 of them in there.No need for you to take the test. You're high on the Macho scale.
Because no one has ever lied about anything on a web forum....There's so much confusion here. One guy thinks I'm young another thinks I'm retired? I plainly stated my age

So you were five when you started posting on the internet?
Then what are you doing here?Btw I quit. But they want me back. I refused. I want to be out of aviation.

Hmmm, they want you back? Could it be that all your rantings and mind readings were wrong?????? No, they must be trying to trick you.
They said I did everything right but I shouldn't let the pressure get to me. I think it's bs.i must have done it all wrong, even though on the Eval score I only got 1 item wrong out of 7. I'm not fit for aviation.

2000-zero-zero posting’s over its out of time…Also, are you 29 or have you been posting on the internet since 1999?
ROFLLLLLL!!!!
…..I’m DED. LOL!!!!2000-zero-zero posting’s over its out of time…
So tonight I’m gonna post like it’s 1999.
With how you described the eval ride, if you only got dinged on 1 area out of 7, that instructor who hated your guts was a lot nicer to you than my instructor ever was to me. Even though my instructor would rank very high on a "nice and supporting instructors" list.
Also, are you 29 or have you been posting on the internet since 1999?
Those were the days

Absolutely. Those were the days when parents stopped parenting and let the internet do it for them...
I basically was independent from age 7. Used to walk to school a mile then take a bus. Sometimes id have to use public transport like subways and busses to get to school, then walked to after school program, came home, did my homework, went outside to play real football (soccer in America) with teens and adults 2-5 times my age. I was extremely independent. This was in Europe though. Austria. Whatever let's close this thread

Like I said.
2nd the proposal. First f’ng thing you’ve posted I can agree with.
Been saying this since page 3 or 4
Nailed it.Except it’s probably not a millennial; more like some retired guy with nothing better to do than to stir the $***pot while pretending to be the millennial they so loathe.
Stinky bait was very stinky, but sure hooked a lot of fish.

So being independent at a young age and healthy and exercising daily and being social and having a life, is bad? But kids today growing up with mommy and daddy dropping them off to school from age 4-5 to like 18 sometimes even up to end of college, who get picked up, come home, and are online all day and don't go out, is bad?
Quite frankly, @ImAParrot, I'm surprised that you've stuck around this long. Between the negative interaction with the evaluator, and the largely negative feedback here, I'd probably have bailed a while ago. Let me set aside your disparaging comments toward members of this community, and give you a brief synopsis of the major things observed through the last 5 pages:
1. Conditions of flight and conditions of evaluation are seldom ideal and will frequently change. You are at a stage in your aviation journey (pre-solo) where you haven't spent much time in ANY kind of conditions, favorable or unfavorable. Your total time means that there is a lot you haven't seen. Your instructor, evaluator, and the majority of this community has seen a great deal more than you, so what to them/us may seem innocuous, you may find challenging (ie. 8-12kt winds). That in and of itself is not bad. It is just indicative of your experience level. If you were saying that at 200 hours, that would be more concerning.
2. The attitude you displayed in your initial post could easily have been written off as elevated emotions due to a stressful encounter. However, the way you have continued to interact with this community does raise concerns. As a CFI, if I observed these attitudes, I would address them as hazardous. If they persisted, I would probably would (as some here have) encourage you to find a different hobby/profession. The way you handle stress is incredibly important. As you progress through your training, the stress level doesn't go down. It may change forms (weather, depth of knowledge, etc.) but it is still there, so as those who might be sharing airspace with you, it is a red flag.
3. Based on some of your posts, it's hard to discern whether you quit or went back. If indeed you went back, I would encourage you to debrief every flight. Make yourself a check sheet of skills and stressors.
- How did I do on my landings?
- How did I do on maintaining runway centerline on takeoff?
- How did I do at maintaining altitude and airspeed?
- What stressors did I encounter during my flight?
- How did I deal with each of those stressors?
- What can I do to deal with each of those stressors better the next time?
- What specific aspects do I want to improve on during my next flight?
- What can I do between now and then to prepare mentally for improvement?
- What measurable objectives will I used to evaluate whether I improved or not?
In any case, what the aviation community wants is safe pilots. If you are not currently a safe pilot, whether due to skills that still need developed, attitude concerns, or health matters, we want one of two things: we want you to improve, or we don't want you flying. If you are willing to improve your skills, attitudes, and in some cases, your health, then we're all for it, and you will find a wonderful group of people who are willing to help you accomplish that goal. If you are unwilling to, or unable to improve in those areas, then we wish you the best of luck in your other endeavors.
Aviation is in many ways what you make of it. Right now, it seems that you are making aviation a negative in your life. Don't let aviation do that. Either work hard to make it a positive, or make the decision to choose something else before this drags you down even more.
In any case, blue skies!
Absolutely. Those were the days when parents stopped parenting and let the internet do it for them...
Wanna bet?
Fixed it.
Why do religious people always fking think everyone else must be religious as well. Have you ever considered that someone may be atheist? This is something that baffles the mind of most if not all of the religious. Always asking me are you x religion and if I say no, they go through a fking list of religions. I'm sorry but in this case I do get upset. Tired of hearing others tell me to delude my self in a massive group delusion for the bs placebo effect of "omg everything's better now"...
No offense to the faithful by the way but it gets tiring and irritating when I always have people run throigh a list of religions asking if I am one of those when I say no to the first option
I'll be honest, I am probably one of the lower time pilots on the forum who responds regularly. Many of these guys have SOOO much more experience and aviation knowledge/skill than I do, and maybe ever will! Even if their tone comes off as abrasive, they are worth listening too. And in my experience, the times when it SEEMS most abrasive is when they are responding to something that they see as dangerous (in this case your attitude, but in other cases when somebody does something foolish or at best questionable).I wish you answered first..the only friends I make.nowadays long term, are people like you. Thanks I'll keep it all in mind
