Re: Logging Instrument time

As mentioned above you can log it. It's instrument time, not IFR time. My Canadian logbook has "actual, hood, sim" columns under instrument time. My previous UK logbook just had instrument time. Just to clarify; the sim is not simulated, it's simulator ground time. As I stated previously, UK and ma...

Re: Logging Instrument time

https://youtu.be/uEgw2p8J0ZA Joke aside, I think I have pretty much the same interpretation regarding instruments flying as thepoors. One example that might trigger a few here is logging 0.3 as instruments any complete IFR approaches flown in VFR conditions. Another example (Unless total Cavok from...

Re: Logging Instrument time

Well I guess we/I should have looked into the AIM a bit sooner: page 360 (c) Instrument flight time is any flight time in an aircraft while piloting the aircraft by sole reference to the flight instruments. This flight time can be accumulated while operating under instrument flight rules (IFR) in i...

Re: Logging Instrument time

The only thing I wanted to bring up (which was missing from the previous two pages) is that if someone planning to fly or apply for jobs outside of North America, then the full IFR times what matters. Especially if someone is not only flying the airliners. What makes you say that? I've got a logboo...

Re: Logging Instrument time

Yes, I agree with you, that's how it should be, but that's not how it is here in Canada. Flying IFR in VMC up at FL370 is not instrument time by TC. It is Instrument time by many other countries...

Re: Logging Instrument time

This is a great topic, this question comes up many times in the "flight lounge" so I thought I would leave my two cents here just in case. As long as you are working in Canada, yes you can only log Actual IMC or Hood time as Instrument time. If you ask me, it doesn't make sense, but it is what it is...

Re: Sunwest Aviation

Hi, did you end up working for them? I'm doing the same right now, trying to research the company, but not much info is out there.

Is there anyone here working for them or did in the recent years?

Any feedback is appreciated.

Re: Kenn Borek Air Info

Hey everyone,

Is there anyone here who knows or works for this company? I found some articles, but as some stated, this company's social media presence is not very big, it's hard to find anything about them except some of the crash reports.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: Saving Money on Flight Training

I agree 100% with many of you guys. In the military we had chair-flying usually as a debrief suggestion especially at the beginning of the training. It costs nothing and can get the procedures in your brain really well. What I've experienced in the civilian instructing though (not as an instructor, ...

Re: Good IFR study materials

All those are great books but I didn't see the "Instrument Procedures Manual" mentioned. It's from the publishers of "From the Ground up" and it has everything you have to know for the INRAT. I also think it's a "must have" for every instrument pilots. The Sharper Edge books are great for summarisin...

Re: Can you fly IFR at night without a night rating?

In any ICAO countries, you have to have the ICAO language proficiency test. It's a comprehensive aviation radiotelephony exam. Mine was about 20-25 minute long, general knowledge, flying scenarios and at the end one or two emergencies. If you pass this exam, it proves your English and also your radi...

Re: Can you fly IFR at night without a night rating?

I was as confused back then as I seemed to be now lol. Thanks for clearing up the confusion photofly. The instructor who told me I needed that Industry Canada (now I remember it's not TC sorry) radio licence is the chief instructor and also a TC examiner. I looked into some regs and stuff before the...

Re: Can you fly IFR at night without a night rating?

+1 I'm one of those pilots too who has PPL+IFR rating. Going for my commercial now but decided to get my instrument rating first (I had 100+ instrumental hours from military on turboprops and jets). I'm originally from Hungary and has ICAO-6 language certificate. I photocopied/shrunk it so it fits m...
