Very bottom right of any page is hyperlink to "forms". All PDF forms are "fillable" that I can see.
This fantasy world has lots of jobs and pilots are scarce as hen's teeth?
In the real world, you may not have a job tomorrow if you bite the hand that feeds you.
I've found that out the hard way - and duty time was the least of my worries. Yet I finally found that trip that was so darn...
Just a bystander.
But, go back to the NY Times article. The author obviously wrote it minutes after reaching the ground and giving his newspaper a scoop on something that "just happened".
Now I personally dislike the NY Times and their biased reporting and proclivity to releasing...
And I will follow my own post with another.
Yes, we pilots are to blame as well. I want to hang out a sign saying "Senior, experienced, reputable pilot available who holds high ethical standards, follows regulations and provides top quality service to company and passengers".
I'm looking...
It's a noble cause....
...but I'm not naming names in this small world we call aviation as much as I would like to warn folks of certain companies.
I will say this. FSDO or the FAA is worthless as to "real" supervision. As long as their forms and paperwork say the right thing, the...
Hopefully everyone bought Stock in revlon, Colgate and Procter-Gamble this morning. Think how many people have to replace all those goodies that are being dumped at the airport!
Then, good old capitalist like we are need to package toothpaste, deodorant, hair gel, etc, etc for 3-day, 4-day...
Thanks all for replies.
To those who are asking questions - after 2 years with this group there is a whole lot more history. Also, for 2 years, there have been no logbooks in sight for this airplane. (Not just at 9:00pm the night before.) For two years (and I'm only counting my history) the...
OK,
Here we go in the latest version of the game called refused, fired, quit.
You know the drill. I don't like the circumstances and refuse the trip. Of course, I'm the only CA available so the trip doesn't go without me. You'll take the trip or your fired. I'm not fired, I quit.
So...
1.) Med-Star Helicopter crashed just north of Washington Hospital Center on a golf course. Pilot called emergency. Unknown problem. Snagged a tree on the emergency landing. All survived but with various injuries.
2.) Leesburg, Va - unknown aircraft had either landing or takeoff problem...
je....
I know you want happy and upbeat but sadly as a now bystander of the airline world, I must report that you are just about at the top of the first hill on the roller coaster.
You're thinking you've died and gone to pilot heaven.
In about six months you will look back and just shake...
As to the original theme of the thread......
Your Business/First class customer who used to go to the airlines is long gone.
They didn't want to wait in TSA lines.
They didn't want to wait for the 120 people sitting behind them in steerage.
They didn't want to wait for surly airline...
Your question can have a thousand answers.
Let me try to read your mind and give this answer:
AC power by it's nature can send vast amounts of voltage (power) at very long distances.
DC power conversely is very difficult (and heavy) to send high power long distances.
Batteries by their...
I stopped paying dues to NAFI.
As someone else stated they are a joke of an organization. They do nothing anymore except run the MCFI program.
They are elitists in attitude and application.
Too bad - I thought they would turn into something better. Their need to take funds from the EAA...

Transit officials said yesterday they would not guarantee raises for bus and subway workers - prompting the union boss to say that management appears "to be trying to provoke a strike."

NEW YORK (AP) -- New York City transit workers voted Saturday to...
Two articles posted below. In a nutshell, NYC Bus and Subway drivers threatening to strike (at Christmas) over the paucity of their wage increase.
You might want to note what the wages are for A NYC subway driver....you know a job that requires no college degree or any specialized knowledge...
Mike1:
Thanks for the memories. I am now furloughed from the plane you aspire to fly.
So although I want to be as sarcastic as possible all I can do is tell you the truth and here it is:
For the next few months you will try to do the best g'da$n job you can including your preflights...
Deregulation.
Now there's a laugh. Exactly how long have the two legacy airlines been in bankruptcy proceedings. Exactly how many extensions are you going to grant for a "reorganization" plan to be developed?
If the government had simply kept its fingers out of the pot, then we would have...
