    Outsize Cargo

    I just saw a show on TV (Discovery Sleep, I mean Wings) about a Brittish company that charters Antononov cargo planes for outsize and heavy cargo. What do you think the demand for outsize/heavy cargo is? Is there room for competition? Do you think that someone could take some market share...

    How can you beat corporate flying?

    I was watching the Discovery Sleep (Wings) channel last night and Celebrity Wings came on. The episode was on Hugh Heffner, and the "Big Bunny". That would be the coolest thing in the world to fly Heff and the Bunnies around! Corporate aviation is where it's at, cooler airplanes and cooler...

    Reserve questions

    As a reservist, can you change airframes? After filling your initial requirements with a unit that hired you, could you go to a different airframe? For example, if you were selected to fly KC-135's, could you move over to C-17's after a few years? No reason really behind the question, I was...

    Stupid question....

    ...Do you use two hands to fly heavy airplanes (that are equiped with a yoke)? I've never even thought about it, and was curious.

    SWA Joke...

    No flames please... Baby Planes A mother and her son were flying Southwest Airlines from Kansas City to Chicago. The son (who had been looking out the window) turned to his mother and asked, "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?" The...

    Packet update

    I have an interview soon, and my packet has changed since I sent it. My employer has changed, but my job hasn't. Should I bother with updating my resume and bringing in fresh information before I interview? My flight time hasn't changed since I sent my packet because I absolutely and and...

    Serious Question

    OK, I have an interview with a certain unit, and I have never visited. I had origionally planned to visit, but the interview was scheduled 3 days after I was going to visit (that was the weekend I was told would be the best). Should I go ahead and visit and return 3 days later, or should I...

    C-5 TDY

    Does anyone have any information on what to expect as far as length of time to be on a typical TDY with a Reserve C-5 unit? Wow, that seems like a run-on sentence.

    Do it matter?

    As part of the flying public, I make it a point to say thanks to the cockpit crew everytime I get off the plane (as long as the door is open). I was just curious if it matters to any of you pilot types whether a passenger says "thanks"?

    Officer Training School

    I've been reading some journals of dudes' experiences at OTS. I'm basically getting that it is very much like fraternity pledgeship. While I thought pledgeship sucked when I was in it, I look back now and think "Wow. What a great time." I took a look at that Charlie Pride journal and it...

    Scores and stats...

    Are UPT Selectees' AFOQT/PCSM scores generally lower for those chosen by heavy units as opposed to fighter units? How about flight experience? I was just curious.
