Netjets FFDO?

[j41driver]

Guess I have to resign my FFDO status?

So you're an FFDO and you have to ask this question on flightinfo??? WTF.....

You could try to apply for and receive as many Concealed Carry Licenses from States around the country... some states don't require you to be a resident of that state; you could get that license and use it in states that have reciprocity with others. I think FL and UT are two of the biggies to get, because most states tend to honor them, IIRC. Forget about Khalifornistan though, lol. Anyway, that's just an idea. If you go this route, as mentioned above, make sure you know the laws in those states you'll travel to.

gutshotdraw, what HK ya got? I've got a USPc 9; my daily carry.

ETA: That's only going to help you outside the plane, obviously. Guess you'd still need prior approval from the company to carry on board. At least that's how it is at my 135.

HK USP .45 Tactical. Planning on shooting some IPSC in the Production class. Would like to get a Wilson .38 Super for competition but way too much $$$. Working on the concealed carry next year. Between my home state and Utah, I'll have 38 states covered.

Going to start adding to the gun safe in case "she-devil" happens next November.

Hahaha, I hear ya on that one...the women just don't understand, do they? (See my sig line?)

That Tactical must be pretty nice. I shot my first IDPA match a while back and want to do it regularly, but I don't reload my ammo and with the price of ammo... :erm: Anyway, I just built my first AR and am devoting my attention to it for the time being.

Thread hijack, OFF. Sorry fellas.

You remember the two Airtran pilots pulled off the airplane for being under the influence ? One only got fired but the FFDO got fired AND went to Leavenworth for being a Fed drinking on duty.

And rightfully so.....Guns and Alcohol don't mix and are almost as dangerous as Posting on a BBS and Drinking.

So what you're saying is you carry a BB gun. No other caliber exists except .45 automatic colt pistol my friend. Everything else is rubbish. Worst move the US military move made is go to the garbage 9 mm. Everytime I put that pea shooter Baretta in my survival vest during an exercise I just shake my head.

And BTW... the .40 is just above the 9 mm . The 10 mm was (and still is) a very potent, destructive round. Every 3 letter government agency was adopting it in the mid-90's. That is, until a few females complained about the recoil on the Border Patrol. Hence the adoption of the .40. PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! uke:

It is more effective as a commodity than a weapon.... trade it for something to eat or a ride

LOL, well, I can understand your dislike over a 9mm FMJ when compared to a .45 FMJ. However, with the advancement in today's ammunition, my 9mm JHP +P is perfectly fine, and being able to carry twice what your trusty 1911 holds is nice, too!! If I were in the military, I'd definitely want a 1911, but it's just too darn expensive to shoot being a civie. Besides, it doesn't really matter what you shoot, as long as you're shooting accurately.

Reload your own amigo. Dillon Precision. It's less expensive than you think.

The owner is a former TWA pilot and owns several airplanes and helicopters. He's a complete jerk, but they build the best re-loading equipment in the world.

Oh yeah, I know! I really want to get into reloading, but figured I'd buy the AR first before the Libs ban the piss outta them again. Once I get into reloading I'm definitely getting another 1911...had to sell mine when we bought the house for some unexpected fees.

 

[TheRaven]

I don't think they take the gun away, seeing that the pilot must buy his own pistol.
What do you think, this is New Orleans!?!

What are you talking about? The weapons carried are issued by the federal government at 0 cost to the pilot. Pilots can get their own personal one for cheap from HK, but the issue one is the one they must carry on duty and is govt property....they'll most certainly take it back.

Roger that! My AK-47 is on the way and I might throw in a Mosin or a Draganov for Prarie Dog killin. On the other subject I thought the switch from .45 to 9mm was because the 9mm held more rounds and if you are down to using a handgun you are at close range anyway so more ammo over more stopping power.

Can you be an FFDO at NetJets? Dont really think there is a reason for it but just curious:cartman:

you'll shoot your eye out!

Ffdo

Federal authority supersedes state. Individual states have no authority over federal officers.

The real value of FFDO in GA doesn’t concern passengers, but the theft deterrent. This is especially crucial in airports close to high risk areas, like TEB. Steel my plane and I shoot you. I vote yes for FFDO in Fracs.

.45 is the best pistol round, but the large frame is too big to carry. The H+K .40 is pretty respectable IMHO.

Thought you had to buy your own piece. Sorry. The Fed should take it back if the tax payer bought it.
