    Asiana 777 crashed on landing at SFO

    I would love to see a archaeological forum thread topic study done that would measure at least two things. 1. How many entries before the thread goes off topic. 2. What that topic is, ie.......crash to music lyrics.

    So, what new procedures from the FAA?

    But you will not get that (speed speed speed) in the Approach Phase, you will hear it in the T/O phase though.

    NetJets China Set To Start Ops in Early 2014

    I have lived and worked here for the airline side of things for three years and like to keep up on the different aviation developments here in China. I don't know much about Netjets aside from what I read on forums and the basic business model as a whole, so I am an outsider on this...

    Dominican Republic?

    Plus communications are all VHF with MIA or Santo Domingo. Just remember to give them both warning calls that your 10 min from crossing the FIR. Study the route chart and use your hilite pen especially since you will be single pilot.

    Rant: Asia F/A's vs US F/A's

    ...the real power positions are owned by men. This is an interesting topic but in short I think it boils down to several issues for China at least. *Perspective, China is only 64 years old in modern terms(1949). It's taken over 100 years for American women to achieve their equality through laws...

    Hawker 800 balanced field question

    Ok guys, need some advice to pass along to a non pilot since I don't think this soon to be jet owner is getting any good advice or he isn't listening which could be the case. A fellow I know who is now rich enough to purchase a used plane, the said Hawker told me recently he wants to operate it...

    Foreign Carriers and PRIA

    But of course this is China. So true. Everyday it's an adventure.

    Foreign Carriers and PRIA

    My Chinese carrier just took my logbooks to scan through and made a copy of my tickets. The rest you prove in the simulator. They never asked for any other records of training. That would be a new wrinkle and pita. What are you going to do about a defunct airline you used to work for and...

    Expat Jobs

    You may have some luck with a different outfit located in a different CAAC medical district. They don't share information yet as crazy as it sounds,but hey this is China. If you can come interview with an airline that uses a different medical district you will be starting from ground zero so...

    Key Airlines and Mitt Romney

    I work with an ex-Key guy. He recently told me and I am summarizing here, that the Romney bunch bought the place turned it around made it profitable and sold it. Can't remember who it was sold to but it went down hill again after the sale.

    30 year Career: US Legacies vs Emirates/Qatar/Ethiad

    Agreed, the medical here has got way out of hand. The Chinese are well known for knee-jerk reaction to events here and some recent medical issues with a very few pilots is driving this lunacy. If you are even close to being outside their size, weight, and bmi indexes you are already at a...

    30 year Career: US Legacies vs Emirates/Qatar/Ethiad

    I am back in China after getting recalled to my old bankrupt major airline. Being on reserve at the bottom of the list with a two leg commute just wasn't going to cut it. At my age there was no way I was going to upgrade either so I cut my losses. If you have an agreeable family situation to...

    The Brass Ring

    If you have any PIC time in an A320/737/190-170/EMB, come Asia. Laugh all the way to the bank and receive some respect.
