    Light Freezing Rain limitations

    to produce the effect of flight within the METAR surface coverage area... i.e. takeoff or land. 'Flight into such conditions are prohibited'. Without doubt, I will not depart, if it indeed is freezing rain. However many times the ATIS and some times ASOS reports freezing rain, while there is...

    Light Freezing Rain limitations

    Hi, got a question I'd like some input on regarding the prohibition of takeoff and landing in freezing rain with the C208. When the METAR, ATIS or phone call to ASOS says 'light freezing rain' but you don't actually observe any rain (it stopped), or, you observe light rain but it doesn't...

    In many countries the legal age is as low as 12-14 years old, sometimes lower for boys and higher for girls. 16 years is most common though. As long as it is voluntary, nobody cares. What they call sexual predators in the US, they call young and in love across the borders. Isn't most bodies...

    Never failed a checkride?

    Wasn't really the learning aspect of it I was interested in, more the 'headline' aspect of how many flight crews put up consistent good performance in the most stressful of situations, FAA check rides that is. I'm sure that in order to make no mistake during a check ride, many mistakes -...

    Never failed a checkride?

    I can see the headline in the newspapers: "96% of pilots failed their check rides!"

    Very interested in learning to fly...

    Take whatever price quote anyone gives you, and add 50%. That will still only be ballpark.

    Never failed a checkride?

    Hi, just curious. Is there any statistic anywhere, or any way to find out, what percentage of commercial/atp pilots who have never ever failed a check ride, since the beginning of private flight training? Is it common to never having failed a ride among people who have obtained "all"...

    two openings, they don't pay relocation, pay is lowest in the market for caravans. CP said they had furloughs on possible recall. why are you even interested? I was interested until a few emails back and forth with the CP.

    Whats the scoop @ Airnet?

    The building is in an up-and-coming area, and is perhaps why the investors will do this - to run away with the profit. Buying the company and selling off its assets is like the legal, fair and justified way of stealing what someone else worked for. Nobody can say they are doing something wrong...

    293/297/299 when changing company?

    So, when a job ad says they want an 8410, what does it refer to? The 8410 form looks exactly like the company issued form I got after check rides with my old company, listing 293,297,299 competencies. Is it possible to get an 8410 with an FAA inspector, that is valid across all companies?

    Whats the scoop @ Airnet?

    What's the qoute from the airline board room in the movie WallStreet? "He'll make 60-70 millions on this deal. Not bad for a few months work". The Gecko promised the management the world, but milked the company and bankrupted it. Kinda see some similarities? Edit>> Btw, I'm not feeling...

    Whats the scoop @ Airnet?

    UPS is already talking about getting rid of several small package runs, by downgrading the service level for early small package deliveries (cutting early morning delivery, which is the only reason to use an aircraft for small package delivery). The margins UPS are looking to save are in the...

    293/297/299 when changing company?

    Hi, Leaving one part 135 employer to go fly the same type aircraft for another part 135 employer: Just kinda want to confirm what I figure >> .... When I did in-house training, and passed Part 135 Initial Checkride, with company check airmen, do the 293/297/299 letters I hold from this...

    Whats the scoop @ Airnet?

    Did not see this coming. WTF do you do, presented a choice to relocate to a base most likely not to your liking, on 1 < week notice, everything out of your own pocket. To fly something your logbook already have plenty of. About one month ago, I remember reading a report from a meeting where...

    Do LOI's ever end "nicely"?

    Thanks for that post, Avbug. I'll sleep better at night knowing a little bit about how to behave if asked questions from the FAA inspector who is lurking around the airport.
