If you take into account the higher cost of fuel, are these spreadsheets accurate for determining fixed and DOC?
1) What is the minimum altitude in which fuel will evaporate when dumped?
2) At what rate can most heavies jettison fuel?
3) Even when fuel evaporates before it hits the surface isn't it still a problem if other aircraft are flying below since the exhaust could spark the flammable vapors?
How long at SWA does it typically take (at the most junior domicile) to be able to hold lines with weekends off. How about all major holidays?
Approx what seniority number will a FO hold when he/she reaches this point?
Can a VFR only private pilot flying solo log actual IFR time if he was, for instance, flying over water at night with 6 miles visibility in haze with absolutly no visual references??
Just stumbled across this site. Although it is geared towards non-aviation careers, I'm sure many of you would find this material useful. A lot of what he talks about has been hashed over on flightinfo as well. I am in no way affiliated with Jack Chapman but I think it will help out a lot...
I remember reading this thread last year and a lot of you rightfully pointed out that O'reilly would never support any union. While I can't really disagree with that for the most part I do think his take on it would be that management has done a lot more wrong which would achieve our goal of...
Has anyone ever flown up here? I am hoping to take a trip off the beaten path this summer or fall, and flying up there from New England in a GA aircraft seems like it would be a blast. What can I expect up there besides mosquitos and the obvious remoteness. Found this website that offers...
Has anyone ever done this in a light single? It looks like landing on a beach is the only option since there are no airports there. I'm thinking about trying this next summer if it is indeed feasible in a 172. It is easily within range being only 160 nm from Halifax. It sounds like with...
Can anyone post a link to a thread a few months ago about a rap song about pilots losing everything when his airline went TU. I remember something about "lyposuction" and "two hundred thou" as a few words. A search turned up no hits either.
Thanks
Any of you care to post the funniest and dorkiest moments that you've witnessed first hand of pilots (especially low timers) trying to impress women by telling them they are a pilot or that they fly a jet. I'd love to hear them so if you care to post them here please do!!!!
OK of course we've all heard it a million times but this tape of a pilot who "inadvertantly" flew into IMC is one of the scariest I've heard. This will make any non-insturment or non-current pilot think twice!!

I have listed my 10 favorite threads of 2005! I absolutly love all the suckers who fall for the endless gravy train of flamebait!
1) SWA flight continues for 75 minutes after rapid depresurization!!
2) Holy line of Thunderstorms batman
3) WHY WHY WHY..why R we hiring 210 hr pilots?
4)...
Heard those 2 words 9, yes 9 times in an hour while listening to NY app
this afternoon online. This REALLY gets annoying and does nothing but clog up the freq during the busiest time of day in some of the busiest airspace in the US!! Come ON!! Everyone, knock it off PLEASE!! Of course ATC...
Does anyone know how long his revocation was. Did I hear correctly that he coped a deal with the FAA to lower it?
BTW I searched the archives and couldn't find anything specifically about his final punishment.
I wouldn't trust him to mow my lawn, much less pilot a plane!!!!
All right, the last month of 2005 is almost upon us. I'd like to nominate the following users as our flightinfo favorites of the year!! DRUM ROLL.............................

2) SPELLLINGGG AND GRAMMER POLICE: TONY C
3) MOST LIKELY...
What cognative skills tend go hand in hand with quickly learning to fly. Visual-spatial skills come to mind as well as short term memory. Can anyone think of others?
