Please, please, go on an Obama-hating Sequestration rant in your public address about delays. Please.
I'll enjoy reading about it in the aviation news. And you will be doing a big-time carpet dance.
I get angry every time I read about this new rule. The public seems to think it's a great idea, though.
I hope the people that wrote this rule have to sit in the jumpseat on a transcon or longer just staring straight ahead as punishment.
The rule can kiss my butt and so can the department...
A forward slip is totally unnecessary in a turboprop airplane. So much drag can be generated by the propellers that I suspect in a Dash 8 you would be descending at 2000+ FPM at flight idle, landing flaps, and Vref speed. Dash pilots, chime in.
If these pilots were truly doing a forward slip...
Stay. The lateral move will cost you more than the time it takes for you to upgrade again.
This career is a long haul and if you reallly want the job(s) you are trying to get your turbine PIC for, you should hold on where you are.
To be really competitive you don't want to have any lateral...
if it's true they can extract the CVR recording from over-written tape, then I predict that in about three weeks, the feds will approach the pilots with proof and they will confess.
If the feds can't extract, then the pilots will confess after they can't get their licenses or jobs back. 10...
yeah, I don't think AP covered this story. It sounds like it was written by someone at Colgan.
I appreciate what soldiers do for us, but they don't deserve special treatment on airplanes just because they are in the military.
Booking must-ride is crew-scheduling's problem and the CA...
sorry, how does that keep the inspector involved from knowing which uppity pilot has complained about them?
If the inspector involved is indeed abusing his authority, what makes you think he won't abuse it again down the road and find something to write the complainer up about?
JAFI, you...
That sounds nice, but I would feel like that would paint a large red target on my back.
No, the culture amongst the inspectors must change, or they'll keep on doing it. How would a line pilot prove that the inspector wasn't "going to work" anyway?
On topic, if the FAMs get to ride in the...
consult an aviation lawyer - if you're an AOPA member you get some low-cost counsel, for a limited duration.
I think Skywest is wrong to attempt to punish you for something you in fact did not do or know about, that occured post-employment.
I bet a lawyer-crafted letter to the HR at St...
yeah -
if TSA starts confiscating or otherwise viewing your laptop info, we are in for it.
I hope this laptop bull will stay in the Customs arena where as a previous poster put it, you give up pretty much all right to privacy by attempting to cross an international border, especially this...
You have several two minute turns there and one one-minute turn...
nice try, unless the passengers hurled themselves out of the door as you rolled by the ramp.
