Re: ATPL Application process tips

Re: R.I.P - Paul Laserich

The news definitely came as a shock. Paul's generosity through scholarships many years in a row is in part what got to me where I am today. You could stop him any time of day in his hanger and he was always more than glad to share stories about all the pictures up on the walls. He turned his hangar,...

Re: Online VNCs for flight planning

A digital format of any of their publications would be an asset to everyone. it would help me out tremendously in the flight planning process being able to quickly reference the CFS, CAP's, and LO charts right from my computer without having to dig out paper copies. I would pay for software/site acc...

Re: Captain Requirement Question

Is the Metro 3 (SW3) technically a high performance aircraft, allowing the holder of a CPL and an appropriate rating to sit in the left seat? Not saying it's necessarily a good idea...but it could happen.
