Thumbs down The new "Bachelor" is an airline pilot

Jake Pavelka, is running around on a TV show attempting to show off the glamurous life of an airline pilot... This guy flies for one of the worst paying regional's. Instead of trying to live a false life of a tv show, he should have "A day in the life" of a regional pilot. Government issued cheese, endless supply of Top Ramen, and once in a while being able to supersize that value meal! Just my .02

They should make all of the contestants be flight attendants.

Feel better?

1. This story broke... um... ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO! Duh!
2. He works for ASA. ASA is actually one of the best paid regionals... way to show your ignorance.
3. Way to bash regional pilots. Thanks for the flamebait. Now go back to Flightinfo.

Mod Note:

For the love of all things good and pure, why does every regional thread have to turn into flamebait, senseless bashing and "my geoduck is bigger than your geoduck?"

However, I'm in an expansive and lenient mood this morning so I'll keep this thread open for a bit. The next poster who can't follow simple Terms of Service rules will be iced and this thread closed.

Kinda sad that a pilot had to go on a reality tv show to pick up chicks....

He obviously wasn't one of my students!!!

Wink the new "bachelor" is an airline pilot

Luv 2 Rotate, Don't be such a hater! Jake is HOT! When you are as good looking as Jake, money is not an issue. Besides, by the time the show is over he will triple his pilot salary. Considering that most pilots are unattractive, overweight, cheap dorks, you should thank Jake for bringing some positive attention to the profession.

Hey! I am in great shape...but I suppose that isnt enough for to compensate for the fact that my hair is thinning, I am cheap, very egotistical, and married.


Ok, never mind. Except for the fat part I suppose you were right.
