We got new company shirts

I'm assuming that your girlfriend wasn't in the car! I'm glad you're both alright. Hope everything else is going alright.

I can't tell you what's best for you, since I don't know all of the details from your end that would go into making such a decision. I can tell you what I did and why. I came out of high school wanting to fly, but not having the money to do it on my own. I also knew that I'd need a post secondary ed...

Where is this???

If I'm not mistaken, copilot time is logged as Second-in-Command time and it's a 2:1 ratio where 2 hrs of copilot time counts as 1 hr towards the ATPL.

As far as the night requirement, I'm not sure if it's under the same rule or not as an F/O.

I was in the circuit with a student. A company 172 took off behind us for the circuit. When it came time for us to turn downwind, I looked both ways, and there's our "friend" about 50' low and 50' to our left, turning downwind...I think I did poop my pants.

"Look before you leap" people!

This one's lame, but "make like a cheap pair of pants, and split"

When . Norris jumps in the pool, he doesn't get wet. The water gets . Norris-ed.

The only ones that I find useful to record are the night T/O and Landings to determine if I'm current for passengers. (5 T/O and Landings in the last 6 months).

Here's a question then... What about flight instructors. Say they are at work all day, they do a flight in the morning, do a night flight, drive home...I'm sure that's more than 14hrs of duty time. However, duty times don't apply because they don't fall under the 700 series. Until....they do a sight...

Just to add to the confusion, you can also try using a piece of paper to represent the relative airflow. Place it (relatively) horizontal, slightly angled up to represent the airflow coming from below. Take a model airplane and place it in a bank with the nose down. Now, this is the part where you n...

Hey Clodhopper,
wasn't it the navion or something...anyway, the world is full of "special" people...

Now if only we could convince people to use their brains to help society progress...

Better yet...

"Race for the C-KEEP"

and....I'm done...

hahaha,

"Because C-KEEP is complicated enough..."

Okay, so that didn't work...

Here is the other part to the partial panel on the Flight Test Flight Test Exercises - Ex. 24 - Instrument Flying and Use of Radio Navigation Aids B. Limited Panel Aim To determine that the candidate is able to control and manoeuvre the aeroplane by reference to flight instruments, but without refer...

Are you talking about the ones that are approved by Transport, but run by flight schools? If so, I believe they are entitled to charge whatever they like. I know that OFF Training in Kingston is just getting their exam centre up and running, but they aren't going to be charging anywhere near $300! I...

I learned in a Baron too. It was a great twin. Just enough to keep you busy, but not to wear you out. The single engine characteristics force you to do something to get the aircraft configured properly. There's no doubt when the engine fails. Once it's under control, it's fine to fly. The warning ge...

A lot of times, the flight school where you do your rating will hire you after. That's something that you should consider when you look for a place to do your rating...that's assuming you haven't done it yet. For example, the place I'm doing my rating will upgrade you to a Class 3, and then it's you...

I'm with you Canuck!!! That's retarded...with 500hrs, why don't you fly an airplane???

Things changed recently at Seneca. The program became a degree program and that's why the cost has gone up. I'm not sure exactly the tuition, but the flying is still subsidized. Also, they started changing the flight syllabus to the Integrated Commerical license. I think the final flight time is aro...

I'm not too familiar with the degree side, but they training is pretty good. Decent planes, decent sims. Even $35,000 is pretty decent for a Commercial and a Multi-IFR. Last time I checked, the commercial alone was $30.000, without the "degree" or extensive ground school. But, your path is yours to ...

Does Morgan Air usually hire the instructors they teach? and how long do you have to be there to start flying their charter side of things? I'm moving out to Calgary and I'm looking for a place to do my instructor rating. Any suggestions? I thought Morgan would be good since they've got the charter ...
