    Those Crazy Sweedish Dash Drivers! (gear collapse)

    This thread is ri-god-dam-diculous. And I only got to page 3.

    Pinnacle flight diverted after "suspicious" item found onboard

    Geez. We live in a society of ridiculous fear. And they even diverted flights away from Rochester?

    A fun game to play in the cockpit...

    Pick a city, any city, and try to guess your FMS distance on the fix page. Altitude golf is fun too. Place coins in strategic spots on the panel and see how many stay put on landing. That one may not be a good game on a short runway though. And be sure to find all the coins when you're done.

    Have you forgotten?

    I was in the Hampton Inn in BUF. Scheduling had tried to reschedule me and my crew to fly early that morning, but they were unsuccessful in reaching all of us, so we got to sleep in. I woke and turned on the TV shortly after the towers fell. My company overnighted 20-25 crewmembers in BUF at...

    More Awesome Captain-John Wayne or Chuck Norris?

    I used to fly the Dash with a guy who fancied himself as John Wayne. Looked a little like him, talked just like him, even walked like him. He was a good guy to work with. With Chuck Norris, I'd be scared he'd hit me whenever I miss a radio call.

    Weather radar usage and what not

    Find true "zero tilt" first. I think this was discussed above, but in any case remember that what the display says is zero tilt may be off a little bit. From there, the best tip I can offer is this. For every 10 miles of range, every degree of radar beam is about 1000 feet of vertical...

    I don't want to read, I want to listen to my music

    Since I've started commuting, I've noticed quite a few FA's don't even notice when people still have their little ear buds on.

    Republic VS. Skywest

    I'm sure this doesn't even need to be said, but a 2 year upgrade now doesn't mean you'll upgrade two years from now if you're hired today, it simply means people hired two years ago are upgrading now. With all the debate about the long term future of the CRJ at Chautauqua and what may or may...

    Maintenance Test Flights

    I did a few ferry flights to return an aircraft from a heavy check. We were required to do a "test flight" which was only a quick lap in the traffic pattern, not enough time to reveal many problems. The return flight was usually 2 hours or so, and we usually found a few little issues (like the...

    Eagle gear up go around in SYR today

    This whole thing is weird. If they did have three green and no warnings, I must compliment the crew for saving the day. I don't think everybody out there would have been able to do the same.

    DME arcs and 3:1

    groundspeed x descent angle x 1.77 will give you the exact descent rate in fpm. Just remember your GS will change in a long descent as your TAS and winds change in the descent.

    what is your favorite job quitting story.

    Wasn't me, but I flew at a charter company with a buddy who got a real short notice call for class at some regional. This was 8 or 9 years ago. He was on a trip at the time, and called the boss up and said "this is my last trip, when we get home, I'm done...". Boss said, "well, you're not...

    Republic training

    I've been sitting on my rear since the 1st week of February. So long as the direct deposit shows up on the 15th and 30th I can wait a long long time.
