9e flashlight

[fowingman]

How strict is the company with the whole 2d or equivalent flashlight? The FOM says 3 volts. What do most people use? Anyone ever hear or the company making a stink about what the pilot brings in terms of the type of flashlight?

I hope CS understands this is the exact reason why we need a private message board. Simple questions like this can't get answered without having to go to a public forum and air laundry.

Get a 2 cell AA Maglite. I used a 2 cell C Maglite for years, and then realized I was just lugging extra weight.

Let me guess....the company is to cheap to keep properly working headsets for the crew members?

That's what I have heard.

Trust me on the headsets. You want your own.

Skywest requires you carry your own. I'm not sure why the mounted flashlights aren't sufficient but I would want to rely on one if I REALLY needed it. Either way, the personal flashlights are required by the FOM - which means they are required by the feds.

I got a Surefire as a gift several years ago. It's awesome and no one has ever questioned it. A red LED light hanging from my ID lanyard, although it doesn't meet the requirement, works awesome for general cockpit lighting (speed cards on approach, etc.).

Seven,

LMAO! You're quickly going to learn that at Pinnacle, not having a flashlight equipped in an aircraft is one of the least "lame" things you will come across.
