    Take a vote go or stay!

    Stay, stay stay, stay..... I think you are pushing your luck here. You're flying King Air right seat with 400 hrs. You have any idea how long it would take you to find something similar? Try a couple more years and another 1000hrs+. Even if you can't log it you're flying a 350. DUH... Change the...

    Switching tanks on the ground

    I switch before the run-up so I know both tanks are feeding without a problem. A student questioned me one time so we timed it; Piper Arrow 40 sec before engine died at idle, might be an idea for every plane you fly, next time before shut down turn selector off and time how long it takes at...

    Little Hairy on Touchdown

    The original full version is a HEINEKEN beer commercial. It shows a spotter listening to his handheld, you see the plane bounce sveral times, then you hear a PA announcement like; "like you for flying blah blah..blah.."

    Anyone going to Sebring?

    They usually have a temporary TWR for any races. All the teams fly in with their jets, can get fairly busy for what's normally an abandoned place.

    Anyone hear the funny App/Dep controller in Charolette?

    My votes got to: 1.The Tampa guy, one of the best controllers I've heard in my career. 2. Lady on RSW app/dep, nicest peson to work with if you get all your ducks in a row, will rip even airlines guys a new one if they mess up, she cracks a mean whip sometimes but a very nice voice.

    CFI's: Don't think of the job as just a timebuilder

    I can't really argue with a whole lot of things in that article. A "Kathy" came to see us (me) for a job about 4 months ago. Clueless but 120 hrs CRJ sim in her logbook. In all fairness, she did say she was only looking for temporary employment since she was a graduate from "Blah Blah" and she...

    Advice Needed, How to start a Charter?

    The boss-man and me are playing with the idea of 135 with a (brand new) C182. Read through the previous posts and the links and the "Director of operations" seems to be the big hurdle. One plane, max 4 pilots, single pilot VFR/IFR operations, do we really need a Director of Ops.? We intend to...

    first flight/ride in icing!!

    Icing in a single engine piston was probably the scariest experience in my life. Over the mountains at night in and out of IMC with a airmet for icing issued after we took off. Should have turned back but we didn't. We went through one (yes, only one) cloud in a Piper Warrior, we picked up...

    Total time/instrument ratio

    Actual and simulated 170 hrs. On an IFR Flightplan 400hrs, depending how you look 14.25% or 4.25%. I log all my IFR flightplan time to have some sort of record of recent instrument experience. Put it in a separate column marked IFR so their's no confusion about actual/simulated/IFR FLIGHTPLAN...

    Commercial Long Cross Country

    Doesn't say VFR or IFR, so file it fly it.... At least it's a whole lot more "Commercial" than a VFR 2000' 300NM XC in a 152 .

    Single Engine Speed Increase Tecniques

    Using pure oxygen will seriously lean out the mixture and melt your pistons.:eek: Guys that run nitrous in their cars have two solenoids; one that regulates the flow of nitrous, the other regulates the flow of extra fuel. More oxygen needs more fuel otherwise meltdown..... The guy that does...
