And Mesaba too. Heck, I'm feeling compassionate today, so I'll even throw the Mesa pilots in there, too. While Mesa and Mesaba have or are in the process of furloughing, it sounds like Furloughs are coming for CMR too. It's a tough job market out there right now, especially if you're a pilot...

In this article, the author attempts to address the issue of ALPA staff compensation during these tough times for ALPA pilots. In short, the pilots want to know what kind of bang they're getting for their...
Anyone care to chime in with what they've seen in the logbooks? I've seen DC-10s for sale with +113,000hours. I imagine that some of the early 747s or DC-8s can beat that.
The last operational C-133 is being ferried from Alaska down to Travis Air Force Base to be put on permanent display.

It started when I asked a fellow pilot what he made his first year as a pilot. His response? $5,880/yr back in 1967 flying a Twin Turbo-prop for a REGIONAL. I asked him how he managed to live on that kind of a wage...to which he showed me this website...
Does this plane have a pretty fast rate of climb? Anytime I see one taking off out of O'Hare, it looks like it's standing on its proverbial tail. Is it a pretty high deck angle, or just an optical illusion?

Is the inboard portion of the flap connected to a fence of some sort? What is the purpose of that?
I'm looking to do my ATP ride in as cheaply as possible. All ATPS at ARR only offers the 4 day program at ARR, which is $1,000 more expensive than the 2 day program they don't offer.
So, that being said, I am willing to take a small road trip and spend a night or two in a hotel if it saves me...
