CFI Military Competency

[nosehair]

those little pedals make excellent foot rests while flying....

...depends on the size of the foot.

take a look down on the floor board and you'll see what looks like brake pedals.

Seriously?? Aw, you're pulling my leg...
I think I'll drive out to the FBO today and see if those things are really there.
EDIT: Drove out and looked: I see what you meant. I thought those were only for taxiing...

Had to down grade my student today... He failed to wear velcro check list on his knee.. I went inverted to prove my point... This CFI thing is easy...

 

[T-1GUY]

Spent the day on ground instruction. Explained the importance of saluting your CFI. Also, explained importance of crew food and prompt payment for services provided. Asked student to listen to the song "Danger Zone" and write an essay on the importance of proper call signs amongst crew members (He can call me Maverick, I will refer to him as Goose)...

Billable hours 2.5 X $50 = $125 earned in just 1 hour...

Next session will cover back history of Military Pilot VS Civilian Pilot arguement...

So, what's the gouge on the 61.185(a) comp test? I'm one of those military IPs that thinks learnin is stupid. Give me the gouge so I can pass the test and head down to the FBO and start making some $$$.

My first lesson to all of my new students is that the first word out of their mouth every time they key the mike is, "Aaaannnd".

Aaaand what's all this 'visual' and 'negative contact' crap. Someone needs to straighten them out with a 'Tally ho' or 'no joy' or two.

Maybe it's attitude. Night flights should start at 0300 with a 0100 stand up. That'll help. (Works for Mother Rucker.)

Time to give a few bucks to Shepherd and fix all that is wrong with civil aviation, one extravagantly high-paying student at a time. What could possibly go wrong?






P.S. Anybody know what P-factor is?

Who's got two thumbs and a new addition to his CFI?!

THIS GUY!!!

I used 61.73(g) to added Rotorcraft-Helicopter privileges to my CFI.

Pretty straight forward, just read and understand N8900.97 and fill out the the 8710 per the appendix. The ASI was not familiar with it but read up and had us on our way in less than an hour for both.

So, has the 'flight instructing industry' imploded yet?

Has JAFI answered any of my questions yet?

Nope x 2.....

 

[AC560]

In all seriousness how does this apply to 61.31 requirements? It would appear you need to get signed off for those still once the FAA hands you a certificate. Anyone know?

 

[Be 23]

The answer to your 61.31 question is in 61.51 where it says it must be logged in "a manner acceptable to the administrator." Military flight and training records have long been considered as an acceptable manner, but I don't know where that has been written. For instance, my pile of USAF computer printouts constitutes a "logbook" as far as the FAA is concerned. A USAF form 8 (separate paper checkride form) constituted an endorsement in my 'logbook' for BFR.

Anybody know where it's been written by the administrator or administrative law judge?

How can ya have 0300 flights and not know what Pee-Factor is??
