    ATC Job Posting-Not to exceed 13 months??

    I was very excited today when I saw the posting on the FAA website for Air Traffic Controller Trainee. Upon reading more details however, it says that the position is "Full Time Temporary NTE - 13 Months"?? Am I correct in assuming that this means that the training period is only 13 months...

    Right Turn off Newark 4R

    (I used the search thing to see if a thread had already discussed this but did not find one) I read in a magazine (can't remember which one, sorry) that the FAA is being really dumb about a rule they have at Newark. Apparently, if I understand correctly, it was standard up until a little while...

    737-300, -400, -500 Question

    From what i see on jetphotos and airliners.net, only Delta and United have replaced the HSI and attitude indicators with glass, moving map instruments on their 733, 734, and 735. What about Southwest, Continental, USAir, and others?

    R-2933

    The sectional for Jacksonville seems to be saying that R-2933 is restricted only from 5000 to unlimited. Is this correct? Since that 2933 is protected from the north and west side by 2934 (which IS restricted surface to unlimited), and protected on the south side by CCAFS Class D, could you...

    Eyes Condition

    So what exactly is the basis for the bias against pilots who have had corrective LASIK and other types of eye surgery? Isn't 20/20 vision corrected with surgery identical to 20/20 vision natural? What are they afraid of, that the surgery will undo itself in the middle of a flight?

    LASIK Eye Surgery

    I would like to fly for the military, be it Air Force, Navy, or Air National Guard. But my vision sucks. With contacts/glasses I'm correctable to 20/15, but without correction....sucks! And from what I hear, even getting LASIK won't get me a pilot slot, that they don't like to see that in your...

    Big People in Small Planes

    Hahaha, already got that covered. If it weren't for scheduling issues, 120 lbs would be going up first :pimp:

    Big People in Small Planes

    I weigh around 165 lbs. The plane would want to tip over to the right side during takeoff and landing, right? Also, 300 lbs is just an estimate on my part.

    Big People in Small Planes

    Ok so I have a very delicate situatioun here. One of my superiors at work, a very sweet lady, wants me to take her up flying. I took up a couple of co-workers the other day and she got wind of it and thought it would be fun to go too. I would love to take her up. I like her a lot and would...

    VFR at KMCO

    I'm going up tommorow in the weeny 152, and I want to do a landing at MCO. I haven't been in that Class B in a couple years, but last time I did all I had to do was call up approach and let them know I was VFR and would like to do one landing followed by taxiback and takeoff and they would...

    Heavy

    Dumb question. When does an Aircraft get "Heavy" attached to its callsign? When it's Gross Weight is such and such, or Empty Weight, or what?

    Question for Southwest Guys

    That's funny about "engaging the grey matter." It's gotta be such a let down feeling, eh? That seems unusual about the 756 guys. From what I understand, Delta's 764 drivers fly only the 764 and don't jump between the 75 and 762/763. Is this still true, has it changed, or did I get bad info...

    Question for Southwest Guys

    Interesting, thanks! I guess that keeps you guys on your toes eh? Especially with the -300 and -500, since not all of them yet have the glass moving map modification, right? Or do they all have that now?

    Question for Southwest Guys

    Are Southwest drivers assigned to a particular version of the 73? Or do you guys fly the -300, -500, and -700 all the time, so as to make it possible for a crew to fly the -300 on one leg, the -500 on the next, and the -700 on the next? Just curious, thanks.
