    Any Alaska LAX out there?

    My wife and I are debating where we should settle down and want to solicit some input from both LAX and SEATAC based Alaska folks. We are intimately familiar with the LA area and hardly at all with Seattle. All questions are based on LAX vs. SEA 1) What are the trips like (ie. routes, layovers...

    "Q: What do you mean by military jet "tactical?" A: Some examples of military jets in the tactical category are F-18, F-15, F-16, S-3. Other single pilot jets including training aircraft."

    I wouldn't call the HR people, but try faxing them your resume with a cover letter and rec. letter(s) from your Alaska buds. Their fax number is (206)574-1950; it will go directly to their HR folks and this is the number off of the Alaska website. Yes, it is truly a great company with "happy to...

    NDB/ADF holding question???

    I'm not clear still..... If the clearance is "hold 335 bearing FROM the station", is this still the inbound course? I'm confused about the "FROM" portion.

    NDB/ADF holding question???

    Question for you NDB know hows, what does this mean when given this holding instruction: hold on the 335 bearing from the station? Is this the same as holding on the 335 radial? OR is it the 155 radial. I know there is no such thing as a radial off of a NDB, I think. What if it's the 335...

    Airline Pilots vs Active Duty Pilots

    I met a reservist who actually quit SWA to be an AGR. His complaint was that the commute between his reserve job and the airline job kept him away from his family. This is the first for me. Like Albie said, if everyone wanted the same things in life, life would be boring. The way I see it, we...

    What's UPS looking for?

    What is the secret to getting an interview with UPS, if/when they start interviewing again? Is it the recc. letters and do I have to know someone in the company? How much more weight do recc. letters from UPS pilots carry, versus recc. letters written by "non" UPS pilots I've flown with? I know...

    Going to UPT. Need instrument training..

    My 2 cents from a tweet IP...........I had 400 hours of civilian (light aircraft) time before I went through UPT (when we had to walk 3 miles to the flight line, bare footed in the snow....) and I had an instrument ticket. Some say that having an instrument rating develops bad habits, but I'd...

    Hey av8instyle, From an Alaska pilot's point of view, can you shed some light on the pros and cons for working at Alaska? I don't know any Alaska pilots, but I hear it's a great place to work (good quality of life, etc) and I'm just curious. Thanks!
