    Lektro tug info

    Looking at different tug options, looks like the small Lektro (8600 series) would work for us. I've seen plenty at FBO's, but never used one. Specifically, I'm wondering about battery life and cost of replacements. Usage would be low, 2 or 3 times a week max. Any real-world info would be...

    Mandatory CRM training for 135

    Somebody posted this article link on another board: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704881304576094100945177590.html?mod=djemITP_h Not to be snotty about enhanced safety, but, why does this seem like a solution searching for a problem? I guess I thought (perhaps erroneously)...

    Canada - Kenn Borek?

    Anybody know if Kenn Borek hires U.S. pilots for their Canada/Arctic ops, and, if so, what are the realistic chances of a Yank getting hired? I understand one must go through the conversion process/tests to get a Canadian license. On the KBA website, they mention foreign pilots for the...

    Mode S waiver 135.143

    Anybody recently bumped into 135.143 and the Mode S requirements? Specifically, getting another older aircraft on your 135 certificate, but that aircraft has had an avionics upgrade recently with new transponder installed. Have you been forced to replace transponders with Mode S? Are there...

    Flight Time limits? (pt.91)

    Just looking for an average, what self-imposed flight time limits (if any) do most corporate Part 91-only flight departments adhere to, say, for 2-pilot crews, domestic ops? Similar to 135/121 rules, or way off the chart, or, none at all? Thanks.

    Check Airmen/Basic operator?

    OK here's the scenario: 135 Basic Operator, limited to 5 pilots by ops specs. Approved company check airman is a D.E., used on a contract basis, not a full time company employee (and not an FAA guy either), stays qualified per 135.295, 135.297, 135.299, but does not fly any charter trips. Does...

    Charter job in Wyoming

    Just got this, this company needs somebody right away, I don't know what they're after for minimums, obviously 135 mins. I think they also have a 210 in the fleet.

    SIC type w/ Examiner

    61.55(d)(4)....."present application to an FAA FSDO or Examiner..." Anybody obtained their SIC type rating with an Examiner instead of the FSDO? Can any old DE do this, or does the Examiner need to be qual'ed in type? (I wouldn't think so, there's really no test administered.) Thanks.
