I'm considering the flight program at K-State Salina.........I would appreciate any input. I already have a Bachelors degree, so I would only be doing flight training. However, I still think that I have to follow the two year time line. Thanks for the help!
I'm looking for anyone who knows how to contact Pro Pilot Training Flight School in Ft. Lauderdale Florida. I spoke with them about 1 month ago, and now is seems that all of their phone numbers have been temporarily disconnected. Also, I can't seem to fax them or reach them by e-mail. Can...
I recently flew on United and I was very impressed that I could listen to the pilots communicate with ATC throughout the duration of the flight. Just plug in the headsets, tune in channel 9, and you are in the cockpit......well, kinda!! It made the flight go by sooooo fast and it was...
I just wanted to thanks all the guys and gals who took the time to throw in their .02 worth. I'm just going to go out there and have fun........besides, I'm young, smart, and goodlooking:D I wish everyone the best of luck with all your future endeavors.......and all you lady pilots drop me a...
I here a lot of negative things about pilots and bad relationships. Is it possible to have a healthy relationship and be a pilot. I'm getting into aviation and I worry about this. I'm not married yet, but intend to be one day. I very much want a family and a stable marriage. Anyone have any...
I will begin my flight training at the end of August. I have decided on a school, which I will leave anonymous, to protect me from bashing:D Anyway, when I finish I will have a rough total of about $57,000 in loans.....about half of this is from obtaining my bachelors degree, which I have...
I just wanted to thank all who responded to my question regarding the RJDC. Apparently, this is a very sensative subject matter......based on some of the responses. I think I will simply concentrate on my training, as someone suggested. However, this gave me a little insight into my question...
I'm just a guy who is about to begin my flight training now that I have completed college, and I'm just curious as to how this might affect my goal of flying for the majors. I'm not affiliated with anyone or anything, it's just me.
I'm am somewhat ignorant when it comes to this whole RJDC thing. What exactly does it mean. Does it mean, that it will be next to impossible for a regional pilot to make it to the majors? This has always been somewhat of a stepping stone.....now, will there be no way to make it to the majors...
If you are considering the MAPD program, don't you worry that MESA just might not be hiring when you complete the program. Then, you will be a low time pilot with no CFI ticket. I'm considering this program but this is a huge downfall to this program, I think. Any opinions, good or bad, would...
My short story: 26 years old and just graduated college with a Bachelors degree in Finance. I am planning on starting my flight training the first of Sept. I have narrowed my choices of training to two routes. 1. Go through the MAPDS program. 2. Go through another program and at the end of...
So, if I'm seeing this right, there is not so much mental math in the cockpit.......I get the point, especially from the last few replies!! Thanks for all the great replies, and if anyone has any real world examples, I would like to see them......besides splitting the bar tap:)
Yeah, I actually have that book, but most people I talk to say that most of what is in that book is rarely used. Obviously the enroute descents and a few others are used but how often do you actually use fuel dump......and a few other like that.
I was just curious as to what kind of mental math calculations are performed in the cockpits of the airlines.....regional and major. Just how difficult are they, and do you have to be a math wizard to perform them. Also, does the FMS system take a lot of the math work out of it. What is the...
Cletis,
I'm also considering this school very seriously. I am going to try and visit FIT sometime this summer. I have heard nothing negative about the program, which as you know, is a rarity!!!! Somebody always has something negative to say about every school. Anyway, drop me a line...
