    Anyone from Chicago?

    Looks like I'm going to be based out of ORD in the near future, and was hoping for some insight on housing from anyone in the "know". It'll just be myself, and I would like to find a studio for $700 or less ($700 being my absolute max). Can one expect to find a studio/1-bedroom in that price...

    Question for past and present CFI's

    I just started instructing a couple of months ago, and had a question for some of you seasoned CFI's. Although the school that I instruct at offers 141 training, all of my students have chosen part 61 (for one reason or another). Having done the majority of my training part 141, I'm accustomed...

    am I a pilot whore?

    I'm beginning to question my sanity on a new role that has been offered to me, and was curious what everyone's thoughts were on the subject. After deciding to abandon my corporate job of nine years in hopes of making a career-change into aviation, I decided to work the line at a charter...

    question for CFI's (past and present)

    I just recently finished up my commercial rating, and am now investigating options for CFI training. I really can't wait to start instructing...as I've heard, teaching others to fly really fine-tunes one's ability as a pilot. I realize that I've got an enormous amount of academic work ahead in...

    the path to CFI

    I'm (hopefully) a few weeks away from my Commercial checkride, and have been pondering what to do/where to go with regards to my CFI training. The advice I've always heard is to try and do your CFI training at a school which you would like to instruct at. In the "good ol days", there was a...

    Okay, this is it...

    ...my last question about logging time (I promise!). As I had mentioned in an earlier post, I'm working towards building the 250TT required for the Commercial rating. I'm also working part-time (office work...not as a pilot) for a 135 charter outfit and have been able to fly along with some...

    To log, or not to log...

    My apologies for yet another question on logging time, yet I was hoping for clarification with regards to complex and HP entries in my book. I work for a charter company (not as a pilot...I'm still training for my Commercial) and occasionally get to ride along, and get stick time, on Bonanza...

    Comm. ride from the right seat?

    As I'll be jumping into my CFI training right after the Commercial, I had an idea which I was curious if anyone had ever done, or heard of. Since I'll obviously have to take my CFI ride from the right seat, and teach from the right seat, I was thinking maybe I could do all of my commercial...

    ME rating during commercial?

    I'm currently working on building hours towards the 250TT required fom the commercial. Since I had around 120 hours after my PPL and IR, I've been flying LOTS of XC's to fulfill the XC requirement, and am planning on knocking out the solo XC, and the night stuff, soon. Since I still only...

    question on the Commercial

    Greetings fellow aviators! Although I've done my PPL and IR Part 141, I've decided to switch to Part 61 for the Commercial to allow for some flexibility in scheduling airplanes at different FBO's. Coming from Part 141, where everything is so structured in the syllabus, I was curious if what...

    The word on Mazzei?

    Yes, it's me again...asking yet another question on a prospective route for my flight training. Trust me, one of these days I'll actually settle on a school, and just get things going (I think I've done just about every Instrument approach in California on my sim!). Until then, I'm still...

    any advice on Arizona?

    I was just curious if there was anyone here on the board that did their training in Arizona? I would assume there would be considering it's a hot-bed for aviation ("hot" being the key word :eek: ) Due to the high-cost of living, and training, out here in the Sacramento, CA area, I'm looking...

    Clarification on furloughs

    I apologize for being so ignorant in regards to the concept of furloughs, but I had a question. I've gathered that a furlough isn't like being permanently let go from your job...more of a temporary thing (or, at least, I think it's supposed to be temporary?). Also, I know that, upon getting...

    What would YOU do?

    I was hoping to get your advice and collective wisdom on my situation. I'm currently working in the advertising agency biz (gosh, I hate admitting that!) and am routinely pulling unpredictable, late hours, and oftentimes weekends. I'm certainly not complaining...that's just the way this...

    the pilot "swagger"

    While I was training for my PPL, and going through the typical frustrations of training, a friend of mine (who flies for American) told me "hey, we all went through what you're going through, and all had those times when we didn't think it would EVER "come together", but ONE DAY it WILL come...

    a does of reality

    What a great site! I feel like I'm sitting in a HUGE pilot lounge, and can ask questions I've always wanted to ask, and in general just absorb all the expertise and experiences from everyone on this board. As a newcomer to this forum, I apologize if I'm beating a "dead horse" with my post...
