Re: Class 1 Medical & Mental Health

I'm very sorry to hear that. I think you should consider hiring a good lawyer and filing an appeal.

Re: Why this job pay like sh*t?

I cannot help it but to vent out my frustrations regarding this industry and the AME profession. Why do all jobs in the aviation industry seem to pay so low and why does the AME profession pay so f*cking low and top out so f*cking low after all their demands?

Re: Encore Pilots Lose Reserved Seniority

the comments here are very confusing and seem to contradict each other with every post... can someone confirm what this merger award did to the encore pilots? ie those hired before Dec 5, 2022 and those hired after?

Re: How many hours should I fly?

I recently got PFO’d from a 705, the interview went really well, then they asked for my documents and logbook. I didn’t hear from them for 2 weeks then they told me it was a no. I’m just trying to examine why this happened and I’m looking at all the possible options. I bid for reserve at my current...

Re: True Story

When you're in a thrust-limited climb, managing your vertical speed is a smart way to control your speed, especially as you approach or exceed Mach. For jets, just set your climb thrust, maintain your speed or Mach (whether it's managed or selected), and let the rate of climb do its thing. If you ne...

Re: Headset recommendations?

Most airline and jet pilots lean towards it because it’s lighter and designed for those long duty cycles in quieter cockpits. The A30 is a solid choice too, but it’s more suited for general av...
