    Arik Airlines?

    Maybe you didnt read my previous posts on this subject? Considering the fact base pay at Arik for FO's was $72000/yr plus perdium and cash thrown at them under the table at times. Total pay was around $90,000/yr for some. So accepting $54,000 to fly in Nigeria makes you and anybody else a whore!

    Runway Incursion...

    Maybe Myth Busters can do a show on the outcome of a CRJ hitting a 172. Im sure they can find a nice sacraficial CRJ to throw Buster in soon enough!

    Piedmont towed from 36L in CLT

    I know absolutely nothing about a Dash 8, but why take the risk? I'll gladly close a runway and be towed rather than risk running off into the grass or terminal.

    TSA-Felons or Molesters

    Back in college I worked at an outstation for a regional. At a small airport, you cant help but not know everybodys business. Against my will, I have heard my fair share of retarded stories from these people which are worthy of being told on Jerry Springer. The way you describe the TSA agents...

    Great lakes, very funny right up.

    They fell out of his pocket during the process. I failed to clafiy that point.

    Great lakes, very funny right up.

    This past winter my best friend was working part time for a construction company flying a Piper Lance. One night on final approach into a middle of nowhere airport, he to had the "meat sweats"... It was so bad, that when he landed, he had to shut down on the runway, run to to the back, grab...

    full unrestricted ATPL??

    Yes a circling approach is a visual maneuver. However, If you are doing a circling approach at circling minimums, you are not in VMC conditons...

    Markets hot for 50 seaters.

    What Ive been told from guys who have flown these 850s is that its a computer mod. Basically they bump up the N1 a few percent for takeoff and climb. The justification is that these things wont be flying 10 legs a day like a typical CRJ. So they will be able to handle the abuse over a long...

    Arik Airlines?

    You do have a valid point. But then again, there has never been that much work for FO's as opposed to CA's.

    Arik Airlines?

    First off, please forgive me for trying to protect my get rich quick/see the world scheme ;-) Good for you for seeing 60,000 USD/yr in your future. Is that figure including perdiem? Guess what? FO’s were making base pay 72,000 USD/yr not to long ago. Not that they were paying enough then...

    Arik Airlines?

    Oceandude 100% correct! Im going to go on the record of saying screw you a$$holes who are willing to come work in such $hit conditions in the one part of aviation that actually has paid quite well (contract flying)! $4500/month for FO's WTF??? I dont even want to know what they are paying CA's...

    Markets hot for 50 seaters.

    These new 850's seem to be taking off throughout the world. Especially in the Middle East and Russia. Not all of them are old airframes. A few of them are fresh off the assembly line. However there have been problems getting some of these aircraft out of the conversion shop. Reason being a 4th...

    Looking for foreign job, but unsure of qualifications

    Please just stay away from the foriegn job market and not ruin it for us who actually are "expensive" labor! Thanks!

    full unrestricted ATPL??

    ANY restriction will hold you back 99.9% of the time overseas. SIC and Circling restrictions dont exist in JAR land or in the land of wanting to be JAR (everybody but the US) . Such garbage only exists within the FAA. The problem lies within the authorty who will issue you a validation based on...

    FAA to JAA converstion question

    Okay people. Im tired of the pms... I got my Frech validation because the airline I am contracting with needed pilots to fly 2 aircraft with F registrations. My validation expires at the end of this month. Apparently the French will validate me and the others until the end of September...
