At 16 I worked full time for ~$100/week, then spend $60/hr on my precious

PPL.
Sounds like quite a bit of sacrifice.

Well, you'd have to give up your peanut butter and jelly sandwiches..

And his canned ravioli.

Is that how you justify your lack of education?

I've never indicated what level of education I have.

It is probably also possible to make lots of money teaching English if
one is competent.

With very rare exceptions, there aren't any teaching jobs that pay well.

Do you consider 100K not well? That's the pay for Long Island NY teachers

You indicate it with every post you make.

Not for you, that's for sure.

That claim is incorrect - where did you get it?

Dividing 240,000 (the number of pilots I could recall) by 300 million.

The current number of
active pilots is ~0.2% of the entire U.S. population and if one
includes the number of people who learned to fly but are no longer
active, the number is probably even larger. About 30 years ago the
number of active pilots was ~0.4% of the entire U.S. population.

Wow.



Nope, wrong again.

Paris is a long way from being the world's most expensive place to live.

Do you also share your car?

Incidentally, we charge ourselves
GBP 45 per hour for our 160hp O-320 powered Auster.

How much does your car cost per hour?


You don't fly, you don't drive.

You are an idiot.

I have no idea, it's not useful to calculate the cost of a car per hour.
What's your point?

In Long Island, no, I don't consider it well paid. It might be quite
comfortable in Grand Junction, Colorado.

For someone who earns less than the guy who sweeps up the floor in Walmarts
in Kandahar that's mighty big talk
