GV to a TBM 850... Advice anyone?
I have to admit, I can see it both ways. I busted my butt as a midlife career changer for a chance to fly Barons and King Airs around the GSO/BUY area. As some here who know me will attest that I always went above and beyond: always starched and pressed, constantly running, cleaning, fetching... -
Regional Airline Autobiography
What's odd is that if he'd have just come onto the boards and told the truth about his career, how he started, how it ended, and offered the book as advice to youngsters starting out, he'd have probably been well-received. But he creates all these fake user names, claims to work for Jet Blue...- Snakum

Regional Airline Autobiography
JetBlueDog/BizPilot (Buffington) still up to his tricks, I see. They suddenly read (Diddly)Squat 7700 and want to tell everyone about this wonderful book? Here's a thread from five years ago when we went thru this for what was, I believe, the third or fourth time ...- Snakum

2000 hour wonders hired at Delta
As a frequent Delta passenger, I'd rather be flown by a couple of guys that spent 1500 hrs flying old Barons at Ram Air then another 1000 in an old Falcon 20 out of YIP or Addison. :p Of course ... I'd also prefer all your FAs were young, female, attractive, and pleasant and I don't think I'll... -
Flight Instructors forced to wear epaulates
Riding a motorcycle in uniform is unprofessional? Seriously, some of you have totally lost the plot. When you eventually have sex with a live woman you'll understand just how unimportant little stuff like where a working guy eats and what he wears when he rides truly is. (I would... -

The Liberal Media
Yes, all registered Democrats get their actual news from comedy shows. And all Republicans get their's from chain mails and Rush. It's true. Really. Jesus ... just when you think this thread can't get any dumber. :rolleyes:- Snakum

The Liberal Media
+1 The only difference between far right nutjobs spewing erroneous, made-up crap they got in a chain email at the top of their lungs and the far left nutjobs spewing the liberally skewed alarmist crap they got from CNN is the color of their politics. Both believe if they jump up and down and...- Snakum

Article on GeorgiaSkies ATL-Macon route
G, this is your opportunity to add another firing to your resume. What would that be ... seven that I'm aware of. Maybe eight? -

Lights at the end of seemingly LONG DARK TUNNELS!
You might find quite a few recent law grads in line at the Free Cheeze window with the pilots and mid-level management from the corporate world. Have you guys considered IT? If you can program an FMS .NET should be no sweat. :D -
Colemill Enterprises @ M88,Nashville
G-Force reminds me of my older brother. My brother has literally been fired from every job he has ever had, and blames them all for it. John has been fired from that charter op out in the midwest, the single-engine job in the Carolinas, the charter job in GA, from Colemill in TN, and these are...- Snakum

Please Pay Attention
The line guys are generally idiots. I know ... I used to be one. :( -
Ram Air Freight - Selling Aircraft
Ignore G-Force guys. He has been fired from four separate 135 operations in the Midwest and in NC and his rep is such that no one at RDU, ILM, GSO, et al will touch him. One quick perusal of his posts will tell you everything you need to know. Couldn't hack it and always blamed everyone but...- Snakum

Passenger Lands King Air after Pilot Dies
I was a low-time SE pilot (400hrs) who'd never flown anything bigger than a Skyhawk when I got my first TO and landing in a King Air. Not a big deal, really. Kudos to the guy who did it under those circumstances, anyway. -

ROFLMAO! Now THAT, ladies and germs, is speculation! :D -
17 Dead in Montanta
IIRC, the stall speed on a PC12 in landing config is very low. But considering he was most likely overweight and in a turn ... it could be something like this indeed happened. One of the first things my mentor drilled into me was that saying "No" to taking off with too little fuel, too many... -
17 Dead in Montanta
Here we go again .... We're not speculating, so much as sharing info. Many of us here fly these same kinds of missions or even the same aircraft. And I for one want to know everything I can about what MIGHT have happened from those more experienced than I. If you don't want to read it ... -
Fedex incident in NRT right now.. anyone heard anything?
There's one of these in every crash thread ... someone who thinks they have the right to tell everyone else what they should be doing on the internet. Jeez. Thankfully, they are ignored as possible causes are discussed and INFORMATION IS SHARED in a respectful manner. If you want a Condolences... -
Typical cost of a 135 certificate???
That sounds lie a bargain to me. I'll run by the bank at lunchtime today and get a certified check. I've always been a sucker for a 75/76 ETOPS cert. :D But seriously ... why would anyone want to start a 135 op nowadays, Dillfer? Got too much money and need to unload some of it? You could give...- Snakum
