    Fighters and deicing

    The question is posed for the branching out of a business end. Before money and time are invested I find that it is prudent to become more familiar with aspects of operations with which I am unfamiliar. The only military stuff I fly is old and has round motors. And frost contamination is...

    Fighters and deicing

    Okay, that's what I figured. How about frost contamination. Is that treated just like snow and ice as in the civ. world, too?

    Fighters and deicing

    Do fighters need deicing if contaminated by, say, frost? Also, how does the military handle snow and ice on fighter airframes?

    Parked CRJ location?

    I figured most, if not all, would be out west. I used to fly cargo in to Roswell. Lots of airplanes parked out there. Thanks, guys!

    Parked CRJ location?

    Yep, those are gone. I was able to get to them while they were there, but they got sold to an overseas operator I think, and now I need another day or two with one. Thanks, though.

    Warbird-friendly Financing

    I'm out of town right now so I can't lay hands on magazines. Try EAA Warbirds. They would be my first stop for info on the matter.

    Warbird-friendly Financing

    We carry hull coverage on our stuff, but it is and has been much smaller than that. PT-19, L-19, T-6, T-28. That part has never been a problem for us. I can see how a bank may hesitate to finance a warbird because of the huge range of values on a given type and strange issues with type...

    Warbird-friendly Financing

    I'll look for some adverts. in the magazines, but I can't think of any off the top of my head. If you're interested in T-6 and other warbirds I would suggest joining NATA (North American Trainers Assn) and EAA Warbirds of America. The latter may have some links to financing help.

    Parked CRJ location?

    Anyone know of any parked CRJs anywhere? Southeast prefferably. I need to get some rather specific exterior measurments for a development project. thanks!

    Whale Wars?

    I saw one episode where Greenpeace was in the same area. They, as it was indicated, don't really advocate the use of the same tactics as the fat slob on the Steve Irwin. Ask them what there ideas are. By the way, it bothers me endlessly that "captain" Watson (is that right?) won't ever...

    Whale Wars?

    There is no justification for that captain to put a naive and completely inexperienced "crew" so close to peril. I honestly think that if most of those people knew how irresponsibly that guy operated that ship they would go home early. It is flagrant irresponsibility disguised and excused by...

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    I have done no such thing! I've been pointing out that with no written, regulatory requirement for the FO there can be no SIC time logged. I don't care how many checkrides you administer or how much training you sell. This company is selling bridges in New York City for all practical purposes.
  13. svcta

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    Yes, but there may not be a need for the SIC in which case training and a checkride are totally extraneous and only exist to generate justification to charge for the seat. The the OP: Is an SIC required by or mentioned at all in your ops specs for cargo?

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    I'm all for them being in the airplane. But there's no reason that the company should charge someone for it. Especially since there is a real possibility that the "SIC" in this case can't technically log the time. The "safety pilot" as we'll call him would be very useful. I used to take...

    Whale Wars?

    I love watching that show because of the sheer incompetence displayed by that crew. THe fact that they haven't killed themselves yet is just amazing luck. That man will get someone killed before he's done.

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    Well, now you're assuming, aren't you. I still contend that if they need the SIC then making someone pay for the job is nothing more than slimy. if they don't then it's just plain shady. There. Got my bases covered.

    Loss of License insurance

    Thanks, guys!

    Loss of License insurance

    Hey, gang, Is there any type of Loss of License or Medical insurance out there for corporate guys? I know that years ago someone sold such policies independent of ALPA that a lot of airline guys had and I seem to recall looking in to this a little before only to find out that nothing of the...

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    Yes, I did give two part 91 examples. But we have assumed until now that the company in question doesn't have specs requiring an FO. Are we wrong? If so, it's even more slimy.
  20. svcta

    Part 135 First Officer Intern Wanted

    Yes,but your argument is moot because the time in the BE99 in this case isn't legit because a SIC is not required. That's a big risk to take hoping that no one chooses to call you out for it in the future. I had two friends that did this. one logged SIC jet time in a citation under part...
