    MSP Crew Rate?

    I've got to commute to MSP for a while and need to find a hotel with a good crew rate. Right now I'm staying at the Holiday Inn for $46 on Hotwire, does anyone know of a better rate?

    Air Canada

    What does it take to get hired at Air Canada? They want a Canadian ATP and "landed immigrant statues" or Canadian citizenship. What does it take to convert an FAA ATP to a Canadian ATP? What is "landed immigrant status" and how long can one expect to gain such status? How long can one expect...

    Comair CRJ-900 Model?

    Has anyone seen a model of Comair's CRJ-900? I'm trying to get a model for every airplane I've flown. How about a Compass EMB 175 model?

    Jumpseating with a beard?

    I need to travel this weekend and since there is always a possibility I may have to ride in the jumpseat I need to know if you guys would kick me off for having a beard. I've been off for a few weeks and since it's winter and I live in Michigan decided I should take the opportunity to grow a...

    Airline Pilot Central Forums?

    Does anyone know how to register for APC forums? It says they are not registering new members right now, will they ever register new users?

    Eagle Load Help

    Could some good Eagle Samaritan look up the load information for Eagle 4440 ORD-TOL tomorrow (August 11, 2007)? I'm trying to get to TOL from CVG but the first CHQ flight doesn't leave until 12:45, the Eagle flight will get me there at 12:20. Every little bit helps when you only have one day...

    Delta Relaxed it's Non-Rev Dress Code

    Effective Sunday, April 15 Delta has relaxed it's non-revenue dress code policy to the same standard as revenue passengers. This applies to all Delta and Delta Connection Flights. Jumpseaters still have to dress "business casual". This means you will see (and be able to wear) shorts, jeans...

    CF-34 Powered B747

    Came across this RJ engine powered 747, thought I'd share it. "It's so small!" If I had a dime for every time I heard that... Or the other extreme, a 777 powered 747 (same aircraft). Link

    UAL or NW Bankruptcy Claim?

    Will someone explain the process that the UAL and NW MEC used for distributing their bankruptcy claim? Comair is currently voting on a TA that includes a bankruptcy claim, and I'm trying to figure out if we can expect anything from the claim. I'm guessing that NW pilots have yet to see...

    What would you do?

    I'm going to Las Vegas for a few days next week and since I want my shaving kit I have to decide whether to dress up in my pilot costume or check my bag. I'm not crazy about walking into the lobby of MGM Grand in uniform (plus I'll feel kind of funny getting all boozed up on the flight there in...

    Electronic Logbooks: How do you bind them?

    I've filled up my original "big boy" logbook and have decided that it's time to go all electronic. I have been backing up my logbook electronically for a long time, so the only issue is how to print and bind it. My electronic logbook is an Excel spreadsheet that is easy to format. I have been...

    What is the Service Ceiling of a Bird?

    What's the highest you have seen a bird? Altitude affects birds the same way it affects airplanes, less air means less performance. I suppose some of the larger birds with high aspect ratio wings could glide very high, as they would not have to expend a lot of energy. On another note, flys...

    Regional to Fractional Advice?

    I'm currently a First Officer at a bankrupt regional airline and am considering a position at a small fractional company (see my thread on Northern Jet Management). I'm at my second regional, with one bankruptcy, one furlough, and one threatened furlough (long story) under my belt. Since my...

    Northern Jet Management?

    Does anyone have any useful information on Northern Jet Management. I understand the schedule is six days on three off and the pay starts in the low thirtys. How many hours can one expect to fly in a year? Do they promote from within? What's training like? (Flight Safety?, Type Rating?)...

    "The Muse" owners, Help!

    I just received a PS Engineering Muse that I bought used on eBay. I tried it out at home and it works for a few seconds then cuts out after I plug the battery in. Is this normal? Do I need to plug it into an airplane to work? Is it busted? Did I get ripped off? HELP! Nevermind, figured it...

    QX sim ride - What would you have done

    Here's the situation. I recently interviewed with QX but didn't get the job. The oral part went okay (could have gone better, but I got to the sim). The sim went horribly, I had a hard time holding a precise heading and altitude, missed a few radio calls, and was generally uncomfortable with...

    Horizon Training Pay?

    What does Horizon pay during training? Do they put you in a hotel if you are not based in PDX? Do you receive per diem during training? I already searched but couldn't find any information. Thanks in advance.

    RC guys! I need help with Monokote

    I'm building a .40 Cub by Great Planes. It's the first RC that I have built and have been able to get to the point were I need to cover it. The only problem is that I can't figure out how to put the Monokote covering on without wrinkles. I have put a lot of time and effort into this project...
