    Vfr 135

    Your response pretty much sums up everything I was thinking during this conversation. I wasn't about to go blasting off IFR just because our POI said it even though it would be so much easier than worrying about going into places like the D.C. ADIZ VFR. When people more experienced than you...

    No STMP for Talladega??

    http://www.faa.gov/NTAP/NTAP06APR13/sp06007.htm From the FAA's published NOTAMs. (Available on the FAA's website). No slots, just expect an EDCT.

    Vfr 135

    Our POI has asserted that a pilot who does not meet the requirements to fly IFR 135 but who is qualified as a VFR pilot may file and fly on an IFR flight plan just so long as he never enters IMC. He maintains that the spirit of the reg is to keep lower time pilots from operating in low weather...

    Odd 135 Duty Question

    Single pilot airplane, no SIC. Pilot is limited to 8 hours of flying. Customer needs something delivered 9 hours away. Is it legal to stick a second PIC in the airplane, fly him to the fuel stop halfway, and then switch seats for the second leg? Just to clarify, the PIC for the second leg is...

    Any New York area leads?

    I'm looking for work in the NYC area. Preferably corporate or 135 work but I'd move for a good CFI job. Times are about 800TT and 100multi. I have turbine experience (About 50 hours). Thanks.

    Is there a real epidemic of people forgetting to turn the master off?

    Who Are the Quality Headhunters?

    Is it worth it for a low time guy to get involved with a headhunter? What do they typically charge? I'm looking to get involved with corporate flying somewhere down the line and while I understand my times won't get me in the door at most places, I'd like to do whatever possible to improve my...

    Glass or traditional gauges?

    Just pure speculation on my part, but wouldn't the majority of those 727 pilots you speak of be older guys? People who didn't necesarilly grow up with computers? I know there's not a direct comparison between using my PC and programming and FMS or even a basic GPS, but if you've grown up using...

    Flying coast to coast

    Great information, thanks everyone. Sleddriver- Yeah, i guess I chose my words poorly about FLG. It's certainly not low country. Other than the large peak north of the airport though, the route is relatively flat compared to some of the surrounding areas though. User- I've got another...

    Flying coast to coast

    The Curacao trip fell through and the airplane is going to the Seattle area now. I'm trying to plan the trip westbound right now and am looking for some input. The boss wants the trip to go IFR as much as possible so he can keep tabs on my location but I can go VFR where it's more practical...

    Netherlands Antilles in a Piston Single

    I just looked at a map, it doesn't look like you can bypass Colombia completely without going out to sea, which is exactly what I'd be trying to avoid if I went this route. I'm more concerned with flying a slow moving airplane at relatively low altitudes (<10,000) over the jungles of Colombia...

    Netherlands Antilles in a Piston Single

    I'm in the early stages of planning a possible flight there and am looking for some input as to routings. Just looking at Google earth it looks like there are 3 choices 1. Go down through Mexico and accross Colombia Pros: Overland the entire time Cons: Can one safely overlfy Colombia...

    Confusing NTSB Report

    You can do the same thing in a single. Great lesson for any pilot, CFI or not.

    Great B-2 Photos

    I had a controller point one out to me as traffic at night a couple months ago. I asked her how i was supposed to see it.

    Cirrus vs. Columbia

    I think the insurance minimums you were given seem a little high even for the cirrus. We have a customer at our FBO with a cirrus and the open pilot minimums for his plane are 500TT and 10 in type.

    DP question

    Yeast1 departure out of RIC. Can someone explain to me why DME is required? It seems to me that every fix can be identified by cross radial and you shouldn't need DME. Graphic http://www.airnav.com/depart?http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0603/00347YEAST.PDF Text...

    DP question

    Thanks for the responses. ASquared-- I was wondering if it was a TERPS thing, but your explanation makes sense. Midlife-- Mostly flat. You don't start to cross the Blue Ridge Mountains until you get west of those transitions. Sleddriver-- When my boss pays for Jepps I'll start using them...
