due to the fact that i haven't broken into the industry yet with an actual job getting paid to fly i have started and run several of my own businesses.

i created my own Fly Tying company "Bass-bugger Flies" when i was young *14 years old* which started me in the fishing industry. this business is much smaller now but i still supply several shops and also sale across the country.

two years ago i started my current business as a kayak fishing guide "Paddle & Pole Kayak Fishing". this job doesn't get much better. take a person out fishing, enjoying the sun and water, and then get paid for it. hopefully it'll expand into something more soon.
 
Moonshine boyz - get up in them hills - good thing Allegheny still has these outstation bases. Apparently you can easily sell it to the Philly rampers.
 
Cardinal,

Too late, you probably already have. In a turbine powered aircraft Vne is established at the speed that would be considered Vno, top of the green, in a piston aircraft. When they hang an Allison on the front of a Bonanza top of the green on the ASI becomes the new redline.

That's not the case. It may have been a decision on the STC for the Bonanza, but it doesn't apply to turbine airplanes in general. Vne really is Vne.

As for this idea that near Vne an airplane breaks up and *then* experiences a 20 G load...poppycock.
 
>>>>>>When they hang an Allison on the front of a Bonanza top of the green on the ASI becomes the new redline.

Hmmm, I had a friend who had gven some instruction in an allison bonanza and he had told me the opposite, that the barber pole was placed at the previous Vne, and that the airplane cruised in the airspeed range which had previously been the yellow arc. Couldn't say for sure which story is correct.

regards

what exact point in the sequence of failure are you calling breakup? for the sake of my point, let's say when the elevator/h stab departs the plane. Loose the tail feathers (initial breakup) and the plane will either go negative and or spin violently. Wing(s) can fail easily if it goes negative (secondary breakup). in the process of this rapid negative pitching action or spin, hi g's are experienced. At least that's the way it looked when I saw one come apart.
 
Wow! This thread has changed form since it began.
What does this VNE discussion have to do with side business's?
Lrjtcaptain's quote is kinda funny yet its true. If the air is calm, why not get as close to or if not VNE. I know my pax like it when I get them to the airport early or on time.

Hey Bluffs4u-Whats your beef with Lrjtcaptain? You old buddies or something?

Hey Lrjtcaptain-I have a friend that does a little of the unsolicited email and makes good money. Some of it is a bit unethical but sometimes you gotta make money to live right? He doesn't do that porn crap but it doesn't sound like you do either. Oh well. I don't know anything about any of that stuff. Maybe you should do something better with some of your computer abilities.
