    rough engine

    I fly a 1980ish turbo arrow. The engine is a continental 200HP with an STC for an inter-cooler that boosts power to 220HP. The engine runs great up to about 9,000ft. As altitude increases above 9K there is a sporadic roughness similar to how the engine feels with fouled plugs. This bump...

    Future of the Regionals - I am Calling It Here

    I agree completely that there is a looming shortage of pilots. What you guys fail to comprehend (and I don't understand why) is that there is not necessarily a realtionship between wages and demand. In the future there will be a demand for pilots willing to work long hours for low pay and no...

    The Hiring Boom?

    And one more time... Focus.... The supply of pilots does not necessarily impact wages. There will be a strong demand for pilots and low wages.

    I.t. Field for regionals?

    I had an offer with COEX and an offer as a programmer with a major University about 7 years ago. I took the programmer job as it was going to take by my math THIRTEEN years to get to the starting pay as a programmer. Not so experienced java programmers should start around 55K a year. Maybe...

    Part Time Pilots, Yay or Nay?

    Why the heck would anyone work part time. Cut a barely livable wage in half and still be gone enough that you can't work a second job -- unless by second job you mean make millions by working at home using my awesome methodology for finding things and then selling them using my patented...

    Future of the Regionals - I am Calling It Here

    You guys are nimrods. The future is easy to predict. Major airlines will continue to fly the most economical airplanes at the lowest salary the market will bear. As compensation at the major airlines continues to fall it will eventually be as low as it is at regional airlines. In other...

    Master's Degree

    Yeah... we are just building complex models to accurately forecast long term weather, building 3-d images of protein structures using cryo electron microscopes that will be used to build better heart medications and of course as a total waste of time, we allow physicists to use our facilities to...

    earhart... you know I always said you can't say non-consensual without sensual so stop complaining.

    Master's Degree

    Not to sound like a giant condescending jerk off (which I am actually) but perhaps change your attitude. You do not in fact have academic credentials. You have certificates which do represent experience and skills but they are not academic credentials. You'll probably enjoy a Masters program...

    Regional airlines are doomed!

    What you guys don't understand is that this is neither good nor bad. Regional airlines were used so mainline carriers could pay crap wages to pilots. It was just a workaround for a union problem. Thanks to bankruptcy and years of anti-union legislation and appointments (thank you both...

    Prior Service

    I give everyone here two guarantees. 1 - Obama will be re-elected. 2 - Obama and the tea party tards have one big budget cutting item they can agree on. The military will be cut drastically over the next few years.

    So much for looking out for the troops

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/08/19/are-military-pensions-too-generous/ It doesn't matter. Obama will be re-elected. I am 99% sure of that. I actually don't like him at all and I'd take Ron Paul but he will never get the nomination. There is one thing that Democrats and tea party...

    So much for looking out for the troops

    What???? A bullcrap story on the internets? Our soldiers are overpaid and get generous pensions not available to the private sector. As a result they lack any real incentive to fight and that explains why we have lost wars in Vietnam, Iraq and now Afghanistan. What these guys need is a...

    Congress to standardize air fares.

    This is where you are wrong! They do regulate on behalf of their corporate overlords.

    Congress to standardize air fares.

    Jeez.... condescending and stupid! "You just prioritize your decision making process with emotions." See that implies that my opinions or positions are based on emotions and not fact and as a result are invalid. That is condescending and dickish. I'm ok with that. I'm a jerk too!

    Congress to standardize air fares.

    Ha! Exploding oil rigs are disturbing. I'm not sure what malnourished children have to do with my post. You are a condescending jerk. I am too.
