Since you're too much of a butt-munch to post a picture when you make reference to a very arcane aircraft, here's a picture of my last flight -

I think we often forget flying is a privilege. If I have to pee in a cup, then so be it. So is driving. Would you support random drug testing on the highway? They already do it for alcohol and they're working to get a reliable, portable test for pot as we speak. https://www.danmanning.ca/wp-content...

Your being modest. I thought it was going to be a thread about “hand jobs”.

Shame really...

With the very low percentage of females in aviation, maybe rethink things.

Don’t kid yourself a lot of 703 operations would rather close up shop than give you what your worth. From a business point of view that does not make any sense. Maybe they just can not afford to pay more? C'mon now .. Everyone knows (or at least many pilots seem to think) that small aviation operat...

Sketchy information to say the least. Actually, it would be better described as factual information. Are we to assume that this was fuel starvation or fuel contamination? Why not wait till the investigators do their work instead of assuming on insufficient facts to make a determination? From Merria...

Isn't that how it works at the airlines?

linerew - I have no anger in me. I do have some sadness related to the state of aviation these days. As I said I am indebted to you for showing me the error of my ways. I certainly did say program your radios and such before taxiing, but anyone with more than a grade 3 education would realize in gen...

Thanks "linecrew", you've made me realize the error of my ways - and I feel shame. I will no longer expect pilots to look out the windows while taxiing and make sure they aren't going to hit anything with their aircraft. If you happened to be the guy marshalling him I hope you gave him a big hug and...

Got 'er all figured out already? Yeah, pretty much. Let me know when you find out I'm wrong. Sounds like you have the inside scoop...care to share with the rest of us? Let's see.......clear day, middle of afternoon, taxis directly into (no wingtip brush here) a parked aircraft. How much "inside sco...

So pdw - it certainly was a tragedy and that begs the question - what changes have been made?

Seriously. Harrison Ford lands on a Taxi way and this forum blows up how he should loose his Licence and how private pilots have no right to fly. These guys don't even land on a runway our taxi way and we say no harm no fowl. I don't think one guy's comment can be taken as "we say". And anyway, it ...

“It’s nothing that’s not fixable.” Pretty cavalier attitude to have, no? What's cavalier about a company saying that TC's findings are being addressed, the operation improved and going back on line soon? That's the approach every aviation takes when there are findings by TC either through an audit ...

Wow, this has to be the weirdest thread on this forum - and there have been some dillies. Disregarding all the wonderful information photofly has provided as well as the absurd intransigence of learning2fly - how can someone continue to argue a point of view when AIs actually work exactly as they sh...

You said it complex. Every lounge is now full of pilots in uniform. It should have been obvious to all what was going to happen. But how can that be? I thought the ongoing argument was that pilots were all professionals and should be treated that way? Would professionals stoop so low as to try and ...

Go to the airport and look at the parking lots. First where the ATC folks park and then where the pilots park - a big part of your question will be answered.

If an instructor is only getting 800 to 1000 hrs per yr perhaps they should look at working at a busier school. Or a school that doesn't overhire number of instructors.

Of course there is no guaranteed hours due weather and whatnot, but that's fairly low yearly numbers.

This is why you reject above 80 knots: Above 80 knots and prior to V1, the takeoff should be rejected for any of the following: • fire or fire warning • engine failure • if the airplane is unsafe or unable to fly. C'mon people - where is the reading comprehension here? The third bullet point means ...

Not surprised, really. But it does answer my question.
