Dont take flying seriously enough? O...K... and you know this how, by talking to me a couple of times? On the internet nevertheless...I understand that you are an extreme enthusiast about our profession, which is great, but I do not think that it gives you the right to judge me. Especially when you do not know who I am or my life situation at the moment. In one week I may be without a home if I stay here, that is the real issue...but again you would NOT understand. So anyway; good luck with your career and happy flying!
I wasn't attacking you, see my other thread in this forum. I don't care about your personal life. Other people read this forum, and think, hey this guy isn't doing jack for a month before class, I guess that's normal.
Keep current, keep flying, don't quit your day job. Low timers aren't pre-madonnas that these companies just can't afford to live without.
You said you were gonna have THREE weeks to relax before a class, THAT ISN'T happening. Where were you going to relax, all homeless .....anyways? You're making this too personal, and are being too defensive, and I haven't said anything about Riddle.
Any idea how many pilots are on the street right now? You are not a valuable commodity, and many guys will need a decent company like Comair, or PSA, to get that good flying, and upgrade while they look for something else.
+1 that trackpilot is my hero.

I have hard time believe that PSA would just up and go down the toilet because PSA is wholly owned. Wouldnt carriers like MESA and Republic for example get cut from US Air before PSA or Air Whiskey went out?

Me personally.... I would kill to be flying right now.... my last company went out of business landing my butt on the street... I was banking on my class date but had it pushed back.... and no one out there wants to hire a guy that will be leaving in August (hopefully at least) for another company.... now I am not about to lie to someone about my plans/intentions with their company because that just isn't who I am or what I am about and I would love to be racking up more hours and have a job to hold onto if they push ground school back even further. I cannot tell you how to live your life but if you can/could work before going into ground school why wouldn't you.....

Back on subject... I am currently waiting for my training class to start and haven't quit my current 121 job. I will continue to instruct on the side and fly my airplane for currency. Btw, I have offered my aircraft to the poolies in my class to maintain their currency for the cost of gas because I know some of them haven't flown in a while,,,, not by their own choice.
