In a way, the ad served as a barometer of sorts as to what type of experience is required to fly in that capacity. Since I do not have a commercial certificate (yet), mountain flying experience, nor 3,000 hours, I learned that I don't have shot at applying. ![]() -- Peter |

I owe an apology to the group for posting a response like that. It
should have been more constructive and professional, but I think it might have been inappropriate to assume it would not be of interest to everyone. Any two newsgroups may have different views on this topic, and I think I mistakenly assumed this group would view stuff like this as inappropriate. Matt, it was nice to read your job posting because it was personable, and I think that's what matters. If it were just a one liner, then I would probably view it differently. I should have suggested, rather than importuned, that your posting may benefit by presenting it to a larger audience where someone may be looking for a job just like this. Sorry. -- Mike |

I just sent an apology to the group. -- Mike |

I was also really interested in his ad from a pure pilot's perspective. It
also allows a little look into the actual flying that Matt does (did/will do) on a daily basis. I'm sure most people in this group have daydreamed about flying as part of their job.

I should have suggested, rather than importuned, that your posting may benefit by presenting it to a larger audience where someone may be looking for a job just like this. Sorry. Accepted. And it appears that those who post here are only a rather small majority...many of whom are pros and I'd be more than happy to land one of them rather than someone "annoymous". As I said, I intended to send it only to RAM, but now it seems it was a good thing I didn't. -- Matt --------------------- Matthew W. Barrow Site-Fill Homes, LLC. Montrose, CO |

If you really look back a many of the topics and threads in this group,
many are off topic. At least this one was about an airplane. I didn't catch the one about the drain pipe, but there is a usenet for home repairs that I look at from time to time. Strange, they do not talk about airplanes, though. Ross Peter R. wrote: Mike wrote: I have no patience for people that don't follow directions *OR* the best interest of the majority of the audience.
