any new instructors need a bit of extra $?

Just wondering if there are any instructors out there that might want to put on a private pilot ground school for 6-8 new aspiring pilots at a small flying club in Southern Ontario? PM me.

They assess your amount of weeks by the first address you put down and they don't care how often you ch...

I agree with trey kule completely. time in a log book is just that. numbers. there is no substitute for experience. hedely is right, that time should be logged as dual, definately not pic or even FO without a ppc or whatever.

While you're at it, why not log jet time when you're in the back of WJ??? You've missed the point. Do you have control of the aircraft, no, are you gaining any experience from the Captain sitting beside you, no. Don't log it. If you are then log it. Who really gives a S#@% if TC says otherwise. let ...

log it anyways. IS anyone really going to care about the 100 or so odd hours of twin time you have? Are you getting experience? Are you flying on empty legs? If yes, then log it as FO time. After the first few jobs, people could care less about if your company had blah blah blah set up with TC. NEVE...

so I guess every pilot doesn't get notified if Halifax tower's fax number changes or if one of Transport's overworked and underpaid employees changes one of their three email addresses.... how are we going to be able to function without all this vital information sent to us along with 80 other pages...

"As I've said before, the first thing they'll teach you at a float op is how to overload a(your) floatplane"
actually the first thing they teach you (or the few remaining "old boys" should teach you) is how to operate safely and professionally.

nope, not unemployed, not yet anyways. My attitude is fine. I will compare careers with you anytime, if that's what floats your boat... Here is a good analysis... Aussie = American... Kiwi = Canadian. End of story. That is from a Kiwi friend by the way, i can't take the credit for stating the obvious.
