Are there any additional fuel reserve requirements beyond 91.167 for a Part 91 flight over the Pacific? Reference?
I know all the part 121 rules regarding oceanic, and the Canadian requirements of 10% contingency when originating an oceanic flight from Canada, but have not found any other regs...
Just curious if anyone had any good or bad experiences with the iPad internal GPS or external GPSs on oceanic crossings.
I've heard of problems with heated windscreens. Any merit?
I've used my iPad on some ferry flights originating from the UK and always had an issue with it picking up a GPS...
Question for any performance engineers out there:
Knowing the following, how does one ensure they can meet climb requirements of ODPs or SIDs all engines operating?
Runway analysis is for OEI, and generally differs from the departure procedure to obtain the required 121/135 requirements.

I was wondering what you guys used for expense tracking.
Anyone use software for the Blackberry or iPhone?
Also I've seen some programs for the iPhone a couple of which let you take pictures of any receipts. Anyone have experience with these, and if so, how well does it work with the expense...
With all the bad news that's going on I thought I would do what I could to help out those I could.
If you flew at Mesaba, have experience in the Avro, and you're about to lose your job (or have), EMAILme and I can see what I can do to help you out.
Cityjet is always looking for Captains and...

Hey Guys and Gals!
Just wondering if there are any annual cost-of-living increases to the pay scales listed on airlinepilotcentral.com.
I know there are the longevity increases, but is there an annual bump in the whole scale through the duration of the contract or are these figures set in...
I've read much about the health and dental coverage, and how great it is.
Just wondering if there's orthodontic coverage. I have a 9-year-old that has braces and need to plan for future expenses, if I get lucky next month.
Thanks!
I have a electronic logbook that I printed out for the interview in a professional binder, which looks very good and the numbers add up exactly to the tenth.
However, when I put my flight time into airlineapps.com it rounds the numbers to the nearest whole, and my flight time summary in...
I know that 1 minute Lat is equal to 1 NM, but I was never taught how to compute the distance between two set of lat/long coordinates.
Is there an easy (mental math) formula that gives you a rough figure?

Has anyone heard about the 5-Mar-08 deadline for English Proficiency? ICAO is mandating that your pilot certificate state that you are proficient at English, if you fly internationally.
This concerns me because I'm flying EI registered aircraft in Europe, with a validation from the IAA.
I know...
Just wondering if anyone knows who's in charge of pilot recruitment on the NJI side of things. I'm sending in my resume shortly and would prefer a personal address in my cover letter, rather than 'To Whom it May Concern.'
Also, I know guys on the NJA side, would a recommendation from them help...
I left Mesaba in February, and have been deemed eligible for my portion of the claim.
Was wondering if anyone knew what was going on with it. I can't get on the ALPA or MSA MEC site anymore because I'm no longer an ALPA member.
Anyone have any info? Pay-out date, distribution for someone in my...
In order to keep everyone in touch with each other, I've started a forum for Mesaba employees.
There has been much attrition over the past couple of years and many people have found it hard to stay in contact with Mesaba brethren since they're locked out of the Mesaba ALPA MEC website and...
"Mesaba Airlines announced today that it has started the Federal Aviation Administration process to begin operating 36 Bombardier Canadair Regional Jet(CRJ) 900s for Northwest Airlines. In a letter to the FAA, Northwest said as part of its planned purchase of Mesaba it intends to have Mesaba...
I've been an ALPA member in good standing for 8 years.
I think it's a slap in the face for every pilot that operates to the highest standard possible, when ALPA defends complete unadulterated negligence.
Not once does ALPA National or the 9E MEC mention the probable cause of this...

Question for Southwest Guys/Gals...
Would you joke during your interview? Not telling a joke, but maybe use playfull, properly timed sarcasm.
Example:
Interviewer - What do you know about the Wright Ammendment?
Applicant - You mean the Wrong Ammendment?
The reason I ask is given my...
I don't know if this is just an Af thing, but I'm wondering what the 3 steps are that you learn in UPT. All I know is that it has to deal with problem solving or emergencies. :confused:
This is probably a stupid question, but just wondering if this is something I could incorporate in my...
