    FAA CPL Glider, Fly in Europe

    I am looking for a definitive document outlining countries that accept the FAA ICAO glider license. I have been told that both Germany and France accepts the FAA license, and allows visiting glider pilots to fly. But is this a license transfer (conversion), or is this simply a letter of...

    New FAR

    Your proposed rule is interesting but you must consider the likelihood of it being implemented….which is zero. The current FAA administer and “new” Sec. of Transportation for Bush’s second term would never endorse such a proposition. Why? The proposal regarding the ATP...

    Decline of pensions and the "Wal-Martization" of America

    But what company would bother with collective barganing when it can just send the job overseas? Honestly, these highly paid CEO's arn't responsible to the employees...they are responsible to the company share holders (who pay their huge salaries (and bonuses)....AND who conincidently don't...

    You know the worst part is that everyone assumes that these guys (terrorists) are going to be dumb enough to do all thing things mentioned in the article. (use of CASH/different state Licenses/ bags of cutlery/middle eastern features). It’s not the dumb ass wanna-be terrorists we have to worry...

    Frax Pilots glow in the dark?

    Quote: "he does not think they should be classified as such because they do not face the risk of a large, unexpected dose of radiation. "On an airplane, the radiation field is pretty well known. You have a pretty good understanding of what that radiation is," Buhl said Ah, so it is the...

    SIC Blues

    I’ve been doing some 135/Corporate SIC stuff for a while now and I’m liking it (Thanks for your forum discussion earlier in the year.…) but sometimes I get paired with this one PIC, and I can never seem to please this guy. Everything I do seems to be incorrect or he’ll do it prior to me doing it...

    Absinthe

    do you mean you can get the de-wormwoodized Absinthe in a liquor store in one of those countries you listed? Or do you mean in the US? I can't say that I've seen it in any liquor store in the US, ………………..THAT would get my attention. All the texts/history about the stuff says that it can...

    News Anchor does story on regional pay

    At the very least it will (albeit modestly) help to destroy the myth that all pilots are paid gobbs of cash. It could result in fewer people going into the industry. Would this be all bad? Who cares what "joe public" thinks....tell it the way it is!

    Building PIC Time

    CFI= People Skills If you are looking to go into charter, I think instructing is the way to go. People skills are both important and highly underrated. As far as weather issues, once my students have progressed to a certain level, we will fly in some challenging weather and that goes for Pvt...

    I just got my first 135 gig with 1500TT & ATP, and I consider myself lucky! I know some instructors who have a bad run of luck finding work. I've met other guys out there SIC'ing on King Airs with as low as 300hrs. Or SIC'ing in a Jet with only 700hrs. It make's me feel ill. If only I had...
