I've been playing around with Flight Star for a bit now. A thing that's always a discussion point is what data did you use to get those numbers. Most pilots who don't know how it works don't trust it and therefore dismiss it. So, does anyone have a good model for the Twin Otter, DHC-6 300? Stock Fli...

Anyone know how available fuel (Jet A, over wing nozzle) is in Laayoune (Western Sahara).

I would like to make a tech stop there.

What would be great would be a phone number of the fuel ppl there.

Thanks

first off, my thoughts go out to the crew and passengers of that airplane. I've just come back from a over the jungle flight and it would be not fun being a survivor. The Canopy would be very think and would make seeing the aircraft very hard depending on the size of crater the 738 left. Then it's t...

VSF, Having done a bit of flying in Africa, I've found that weather is somtimes hard to get and even if find it, it might not be very reliable. That's if you can wake the weather guy up for a morning flight. These are some of the sites I use: Aviation underground is fairly good. Type the ICAO ident....

I hope this never happens. But I think that's what the milkman said the first time someone told him about a crazy new milk distribution system. Some survey companies already have UAVs. And I don’t care what anyone says, a R/C plane hitting a wire to “land” has NO style. I don't think it's going to b...

Safety recommendation from the FAA on the Caravan -Require all operators of Cessna 208 series airplanes to maintain a minimum operating airspeed of 120 knots during flight in icing conditions, even if a descent is required to do so. (A-06-01) Urgent -Prohibit all operators of Cessna 208 series airpl...

I just don't like finger prints on the GPS and fuel gauges

I have a 05’ black and white ipod 20 gig and love it. I use it all the time in the plane. I have about 14 gigs of music on it (I think I only really listen to about 8 or 9 of it). The play list I use the most is 4.6 gigs big and has 520 songs on it. It's about 10 hours long. I have a splitter for wh...

I was more wondering are they going to pick ppl with the min or are they going to look at ppl with more time.

I meet those mins. I don't know if I have a chance.

Looks like Cathay is hiring again. I'm thinking of the SO position. I would not mind the change in scenery. Does anyone know the SO pay? What everyone's thought on this? What kind of time are they going to hire with? Are they going to take guys with the mins they put in the ads? Or are they going to...

most places that you can get on from dispatch to the flight line don't require the dispatch exam. You need the dispatch exam for Bigger operators. AC, west jet... and some 704 with big pax airplanes (dhc-8) At most smaller places you are a flight follower in a pilot self disptach operation. Go talk ...
