Today I went into ground school carrying my two bags of books that I needed thus far only to be told that another set are required! Pictured to the left are the next set I require for the next 4 weeks. Then I was informed that these are the small sets of books and that for the next stage of the course (which breaks into 14 modules) there is roughly 14 times as many books all twice as thick! This got me thinking, you hear green activists complaining about how air transport is destroying the environment, its not the travel its the sheer amount of books and paperwork.
You hear that 240.65 square miles of rain forest will be destroyed per day, that's just to cover the production of my books and paperwork! Times that by all the people involved in aviation and it proves its not the airplanes damaging the environment its the paperwork.
Also no wonder most pilots complain of back problems; by the time they have finished all their training they have enough books to fill a large shipping container which they some how manage to cram into their bags and sling on their backs. Its a surprise most pilots can walk let alone get away without being semi-crippled with back injuries!
Look what happened when this pilot tried to carry all his books on the same plane, the moment he stepped into the flight deck the front wheel gave out!
OK enough ranting, I think you have the idea.
