    Cape Air in Montana

    Just got an "Apply Now!" postcard from Cape Air, looks like they'll take over the EAS Montana Highline routes from Silver. http://billingsgazette.com/news/state-and-regional/montana/cape-air-to-service-eastern-montana-towns/article_cfd48f83-a444-5753-b87d-7ea2ca40079f.html Not sure I'd be...

    definition of crew rest

    91.1057 is only applicable for Subpart K fractional operators. 135 and 121 also have "applicable" definition sections for duty and rest, but that does not appear in 125. One would think that a reasonable interpretation of "rest" would be the same as 121 and 135, i.e. "free from all duty," but...

    Climb Gradient

    KJAC, KMSO, KBTM, KAFO, 36U, KSMN, KRIL, KCDC, KBIH, KRNO, KMEV.....just to name a few. A simple flip thru western US Jepps, and pick the charts with a lot of brown should do it.

    Honestly, no flame bait...

    Why does anyone go to university and end up with a major in art history/russian literature/underwater basket weaving? Why does anyone start a program of pre-med or pre-law, knowing that only some small percentage of undergrad students will ever get accepted to med school or a law program...

    Teaching my kids to fly

    Owning a plane as a primary trainer can certainly be cheaper than renting, especially with 2 students using it. As to whether "Dad" should instruct, a couple of things come to mind. One, as an expired CFI and airline pilot, you may or may not be the best choice as instructor vs. say, someone...

    Cape Air bird strike!

    Complex Math (NAV) Problem

    Maybe use the 1-in-60 rule? 1 degree of deviation at 60nm is 1 nm "off course". If your example was the 180 radial at 60 dme, then the acute angle of the triangle would be simply 20 deg., making the heading 200. Multiples of 60 for the long leg are easy, but, with the 70dme fix, then it will...

    Campervans in airport parking lots

    Very airport-dependent as to whether or not it's feasible, in my limited experience. Last thing you'd want in the middle of the night would be to get rousted out by airport security. "........and now I'm living in a van, down by the river!"

    C-130 down in SD

    http://rapidcityjournal.com/news/plane-goes-down-fighting-white-draw-fire/article_9b8b5de1-862c-570d-add9-9231cb3fe5e5.html Haven't heard any updates on the crew status, hoping for the best.

    Autopilot SOP?

    Part 135.93 always seemd like a reasonable starting point.

    Hayden CO Crash?

    Article says a 414. RIP to those lost. http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_20002674 (Caught my attention, I've got a trip scheduled down that way this week.)

    BE1900's

    Here's one: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N305PC Peabody Coal corporate shuttle. The six 20 minute legs per day would send me over the edge, but might be somebody else's cup of tea. (Other than their existence, I have no other info on this operation whatsoever.)

    How are the jobs where it's warm?

    Can't imagine Saudi et. al. being much fun for wife and daughter. Watching climbto350 and other pilot job sites, in general, there seem to be a few more corporate postings from Texas, Dallas, Houston, etc., than other areas. (But, I suppose that could imply high turnover, too!)

    Pilot Pay Rates

    Not trying to be a smart a$$, but, in general, "being home more" and G5 don't usually go together.

    Chart Note: Reduced Vis. ILS 19L at KIAD

    Yeah, weird. Jepps do not show that note for CAT I, but it is on the plate for CAT II. Probably a misprint.
