    Spirit to Furlough 260 Pilot and defer aircraft

    I wonder if the carriers that stopped "hiring" have stopped interviewing too. I suppose that they could still interview, give out CJOs and put them in a pool to await for the dust to settle.

    Spirit to Furlough 260 Pilot and defer aircraft

    If other airlines keep hiring at current rates, it may be that attrition from Spirit will take care of that 260 pilots. Many Spirit pilots are actively seeking employment elsewhere so I wouldn't be surprised to see attrition save the furloughs..or greatly reduce them.

    Charter Pilot Shortage ?

    That job ad has been pulled. Not sure why it didn't last longer than that or what that means for their job hunting effort.

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    Judging from the number of questions on av forums about logging flight time, I suspect lots of people aren't clear about what's legal. At some point, I might have to count myself among them. I suspect many people sitting on interview boards are also included. That might be flybige's point...

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    I got the impression flybige was referring more to the issue of whether an interviewer was familiar enough with the legal fine points of logging instrument time rather than disagreeing with the regs themselves. I agree with him that I wouldn't want to bet my shot at a career slot on whether...

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    Well, it must be something like that. I spent 35 years in Part 121 ops and never gave so much as a thought to instrument currency. Nor could I have told you how many approaches I shot in IMC...ever.

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    mlf, In looking a the Carpenter letter, I assume it refers to Part 121 ops. Where it mentions maintaining instrument currency, I don't recall ever keeping track of/documenting that the way we had to for landings, for example. I'm sure the company would've had us submitting some kind of form...

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    I'd be interested to see that letter. I've tried to locate issues in that venue but failed. Do you have a link to it ? the135pilot didn't offer enough detail to indicate whether his operation "requires" a F/O. I'm not much of a lawyer. :unsure:

    Can a Pilot Monitoring Log Instrument Time

    FAR 61.51(g) would seem to say that you have to be the one flying the airplane in IMC: "...when the person operates the aircraft..." https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/61.51

    Dispatchers

    I don't see much recent attention paid here to aircraft dispatchers, their professional track or career prospects. It's a viable route for those who want to be part of the airline world but not as a pilot or mechanic. I've seen considerable attention paid to this on another website. It might...
