Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone had any idea of how much/what kind of time one would need to be insurable under Part 91 (just plain old 91, not subpart K) as single pilot PIC on a PC-12. Just curious because of this little entreprenuerial pipe dream I'm having. Any responses would be...
Ok, since these SKW union threads are all the rage right now, I have a question that came up through my own research that's been bugging me. Maybe some of you guys that know more about this than I do can help me out.
So suppose the vote passes and ALPA comes on the property, and negotiations...
ExpressJet... FYI
Ok, so here's the scoop..
I have had applications in at six different airlines, five of which called for an interview. I interviewed or will interview at the of three these places, and two so far have offered jobs. I have also applied at ExpressJet and have not heard a...
Ok folks, this time it's for real, well at least for me. Here's my situation:
Applied, interviewed, and offered a job at Eagle. Should have a class date pending CA's review tomorrow. (Congrats to all those in my interview group--we all seemed pretty strong, and I was actually pretty...
I just finished the online application, and met all the requirements. I was just wondering does an invitation to a group interview come next? I didn't see a place on the online app where you selected one. If that goes well, then you have another interview, I assume? Anyway, the website...
Just been reading the gouges lately. It seems like some people have a really good experience, while other people get hammered and are shown the bus stop--people that have plenty of time, know their stuff, etc. What's the story here? One of the gouges said that the guy had like 300 multi...
That can't be right. Not with a referral and incentive program. I don't understand that at all. Someone help me out.
Edit: Anyway, looks like I could make someone a cool $1200. Any takers? ;)

I guess it's my turn to post one of these goofy threads... I did a search here on flightinfo and it didn't really give me the info that I wanted. I've been able to get a lot of info about the company through my own research, but there are a few things that I haven't been able to figure out, so...
Hey all,
Today I had a little time and I thought I'd sit down and figure out just how much crosswind I had landed in a few weeks ago. To my nearest estimation, it was a crosswind component of 22 knots (good story). The maximum demonstrated value for the Cessna 172R is 15 knots, and so here's...
Hey all,
Here it is: I was looking at the payscales on airlinepilotcentral.com, and I was wondering if generally when you upgrade to CA, do you start over at Year 1 pay for CA, or do you start earning the pay for the number of years of service with the company? Just wondering.

Hey All,
I need some advice. I have an interview with an outfit that flies PC-12s.
I'm actually thrilled about the opportunity--flying all around the east coast, good pay, good equipment, stable company, etc. And a chance to do something other than instruct. (After around 500 hours of dual...
Hey all,
If looking for a headset to use in both airplanes and helicopters, would you:
A. Buy a normal straight corded airplane headset with dual plugs and buy the adapter for helicopters?
B. Buy a coiled corded airplane headset with dual airplane plugs and buy the adapter for...
All,
This is something that's been on my mind as we have been moving into the ice-free IMC season here in New England. I have noticed that some of my fellow instructors have had no qualms with charging off into actual IMC and flying approaches down to minimums in C-172s. However, after having...
Hey folks,
There comes a time in every flight instructor's life where they need to start looking into getting the ATP written done. There is a 135 and 121 version of the test. Does it make any difference as to what version I do? An ATP is just an ATP, right?
Thanks,

According to my understanding, if you are flying a turbine powered airplane (such as the PC-12) under part 91, you may not fly that airplane with inoperative equipment unless the aircraft has an approved MEL and the inoperative item is not on that list. Otherwise (and this is the part that I'm...
Hey folks,
Just a quick question for you all. FAR 61.189 states that a flight instructor must maintain a record that contains the following:
"The name of each person whose logbook or student pilot certificate that instructor has endorsed for solo flight privileges..."
Does this include...
Hey all,
I have it on dubious authority (hence this post) that helicopter jobs are easy to obtain at the moment, as the Vietnam era guys are reaching retirement age (my father included--served but never flew.) I heard this on a recent visit to a local part 61 heli school (just while shootin'...
Hey folks,
Looking for some advice from the sages of the corporate forum. I'm thinking that the corporate gig might be for me, but to get hired I'll need to get some good PIC time somewhere, and I may have to go to a regional to get it (I'd probably only consider the regionals with a quicker...
