I can't believe they say some of the things they do...

From the homepage, click "Video" on the right and select your respective media player and connection...watch and prepare to be disgusted.

I_WANNA_BE_ATP · March 30th, 2005, 14:53

Reminds me of the song, "things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........."

but heres a link to something very intersting jobs available

Mariano · March 30th, 2005, 16:50

Yeah the video is pretty disgusting. One of the worst moments is when they say that pilots going the CFI way "burdens the airlines, resulting in higher training costs (oh yeah they're doing a big favor to the airlines

) lower productivity, lower standards, and reduced safety levels

. And what about the sinister background music while the say that. Pathetic.
And what about the stupid, lousy "proud to be Florida's own" and the painted aircraft tails. I mean is so obvious that is a scam that I can't believe people are so desperate to throw their money like that. " Aircraft charter on demand"

crashmbern · March 30th, 2005, 17:14

of course they show a riddle plane making a bad landing

Screaming_Emu · March 30th, 2005, 17:40

wow...biggest load of s**t I've heard in a long time.

Well, let's just get rid off all CFIs. That should REALLY lower airline training costs.....

Seggy · March 30th, 2005, 19:18

Disgusting

GaTechKid · March 30th, 2005, 19:50

What misinformation...

Dazzler · March 30th, 2005, 21:08

That video is terrible!
But did anyone find the "Easter Egg" ?

Dazzler · March 30th, 2005, 21:10

By the way, is there really such an airline as "TAB Express" ? I've never heard of it.

Brazilian_Pilot · March 30th, 2005, 21:28

I love how they show off their airline certificate.
That video made me kind of pissed off. I couldnt believe what they said about CFIs.

Brazilian_Pilot · March 30th, 2005, 21:31

EVERYONE SAVE THE WHALEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Doug Taylor · March 30th, 2005, 22:16

Geez. I guess I ought to apologize to Skyway and Delta for imposing my former CFI-idiosyncracies on their respective training departments...

IT_Pilot · March 30th, 2005, 22:23

A short unsupervised one act play:

"Hey Bob! Guess what! I just bought a chocolate factory with no money down!"

"And I just became a F/O with TAB Express!"

"You got ripped off, man!"

joel_MQY · March 30th, 2005, 22:27

You know, I really hated the TAB Express Program. However, I have decided to enroll after hearing that catchy music in the background.

C150J · March 30th, 2005, 22:30

I wonder if they received premission from the Rolling Stones to use that song...Microsoft had to pay MILLIONS for rights to it...

J.

Grabo172 · March 30th, 2005, 22:34

We should send the link to the Rolling Stones and See...

Ice_Hawk · March 30th, 2005, 22:37

TAB Express sucks, and this stupid ad campaign just makes it worse.

BTW, why are all the major flight schools (and PFT/PFJ crap) in friggin' Florida? Don't they have ANY good flight schools up north? I hate the heat and I hate flying in the heat.

IT_Pilot · March 30th, 2005, 22:37

Send the link to the Rolling Stones label's legal dept!

HorizonCRJ · March 30th, 2005, 22:48

What am I thinking wanting to be a CFI, have I lost my mind?

Windchill · March 30th, 2005, 23:02

From their "Costs" section

Zero-Time Pilot to a Job-
Express 1-9, 10*-13: $69,990
Express 14 (Beech 1900 Type Rating): $12,495
Express 15 (250 hour B1900 F.O. Intern): $12,500

I did an internship, and I got paid for it ... I didn't nor should anyone have to pay for an internship.

Frigg'n ridiculous!

montanapilot · March 30th, 2005, 23:34

what a load of bu!![censored]. that pisses me off how they play the sinister music and take cheap shots at the CFI profession.

bike21 · March 31st, 2005, 00:03

hahahahaha! now that i have stopped laughing, i can pick up my internal organs and continue on. what a sad marketing scam. all CFIs should burn in hell!

mrivc211 · March 31st, 2005, 03:41

I guess I should quit now before I cost my company more money because I had insufficient knowledge when I was a CFI.

I guess when they say God Bless America, you gotta also take the bad with the good huh?

av8trxx · March 31st, 2005, 04:08

They train in "Actual Airline Conditions"... as if it's like IMC or something.
