    Cfi Question - Takeoffs

    I'm working towards a CFI certificate and it's causing my brain to think about all kinds of strange questions. So here goes…… Why don't we use short field takeoff procedures for every departure? On the surface it would seem like a safer way to operate. I've been told to incorporate some...

    Still gona change careers?

    For those of you trying to switch careers (form the desk to the airplane, not the other way around :))……. How have things / plans changed for you while the industry is in a slump? What are you doing to keep a positive attitude? Do you have any kind of mentor that provides encouragement and...

    Air Fares - Going Up Or Down?

    We're in the process of booking a flight for Thanksgiving. Looking for round trip SEA to the New York area - family of 4. In your opinion, are fares going to go up or down from here on out? And why? Just curious. Seattle

    Class G Vert Limits

    What FAR tells me that class G is terminated at either 14500' MSL (class E) or 1500' AGL which ever is higher - unless otherwise specifically noted. Ref the Jeppesen cross-sectional view of the airspace system to see what I'm talking about. Thanks. Seattle

    Aero-camping Nw

    Does anybody know of a good place to go aero-camping near the SEA area? I was hoping to stay within the 200 mile range from SEA. I think the local grass strips (i.e. Bandara) are still a bit soggy. I'd be interested in any taxi up, pitch a tent, light a fire, and start BSing, family friendly...

    Com Ride In A 35

    Anybody know if there are DE's that will do the commercial ride in a BE-35? - any in the SEA area? I've got the through-over yoke and no intercom. Ok Ok I know it's a real bucket of bolts, but it's paid for. Also, anybody interested in splitting time in the same 35. We can take turns putting...

    IMC Time Keeping

    What's the best way for us time builders to keep tack of actual IMC time? I usually remember to note the time on my way into the clouds but forget to note the time coming out the other end. What about all the little patches of VMC in between? Thanks. Seattle PS: Did you know it rains alot...

    Landing Gear

    Stupid question time for those in the know. Do modern commercial airliners have some type of load sensing capability in the landing gear to help with weight and balance calculations - not just the squat switch? What about older commercial airliners? Who does the weight and balance...

    Corporate vs Fractional Ownership

    Forgive me if these are stupid questions. Will the fractional ownership programs drive away corporate flying? Is cost really justified for companies that operate their own aircraft? A corporate flight department just seems like too much money. Is it an ego thing or is there a good case for...
