I'm looking at a cornea transplant in Jan. Anyone have any experience or know anyone that had this done? I have KC and can no longer get adequate vision in my right eye
i currently have KC, but am not flying at this time. I'm facing a cornea transplant next month and am anxious about how my vision will improve. How far along are you (hard contacts, intacts, etc)?
woutlaw, thanks for all the GREAT info. This will be a part time deal, I got a full time job to support me. The major problem is that I will have to do all the instructing in other people's aircraft or work it out with the area FBO's. I do not own an aircraft. The idea of instructing is not...
I have reciently moved to Wyoming and want to freelance as a CFI. Although there is not an aircraft to use at the FBO, I thought that I could to reviews, BFR's, etc in aircraft that the owners own.
What do you think about setting up a small business for this? I know that it would be a...
I was told that the prop came off the same bird, but not when the film was made. Anyone know how to post pics here?
Avbug, do you know that they are cutting up alot of the old birds in Greybull? That is how my father came about the prop. What one could do with all those old A/C
I'll have to post a pic later on, have to get to work this morn.
Avbug, I'm back in Wyoming now, Back in Worland. Not that I'm flying, though. It's good to be back near the mountains, though. I'm keeping my eyes open for flying jobs. They are really scarace.
I have aquired a prop blade from an aircraft, about 7foot tall and 14" wide. Anyone have any ideas on what to do with it? It came out of Greybull, Wy (H&P's yard), I was told that it came off of the aircraft that was in "The Flight of the Phoenix"
I knew Bob (aka Answerguy) when he flew for Great Lakes here in Wyoming. We got to do an antelope hunt together many years ago.
I heard that they found a bleed in his brain with no brain activity. http://www2.caringbridge.org/fl/bob/
Godspeed Bob.
I don't think that it's overkill to put primary students in glass, the point is that they need to learn the stick and rudder stuff before everything else. If that is the only trainer, so be it. If a choice is to be made between two aircraft, one should probably start them out in the...
Do most charter type operations require fingerprinting? I know that UPS and DHL frieght contractor type ops just started this procedure, but I was wondering about flying Pax. Thanks.
I like to shut off the map sometimes. It makes the student think instead of just looking at the screen and pointing. Also, I make the X-countries consist of different forms of navigation. One leg with a VOR, one pilotage, one GPS. That way, they get all the neccessary forms of navigation, and...
Unfortunately, the CAP requires pilots to wear a uniform. Dorky, I know. But required.
Can't be any worse than the POS flight academies that require CFI's to wear the "pilot shirt" complete with shoulder bars.:rolleyes:
Besides, I believe that you are looking for the guy with the helmet and...
I hear what you are saying. But, the student (assuming pvt or inst) should be able to fly traditional type first, then enhance their learning by utilizing the glass. Unless the student has flown in traditional type aircraft, they will be lost when working on instrument work. For the private...
