That's not entirely true...

But why let facts get in the way of anger?

In China and North Korea they use metres for altitudes, Russia used to as well but recently switched over to flight levels in feet. Winds in Russian metars/ATIS are given in metres per second. Visibilities everywhere (except for North America it seems) are given in metres as well. Interestingly, Rus...

Annual salary plus hourly pay. There are no quiet months.

Helijet offers scenic flights from downtown as well. Starting at $99 I believe.

The 777 has direct, conventional control links available to the hydraulic actuators for two spoilers and the stabilizer. The manual makes it very clear that you have no chance whatsoever of actually flying the airplane with those but that they permit "level flight to be maintained until electrical ...

Peter was a fantastic guy and totally deserves this honour. I have him to thank for my INRAT score and for helping me to the job I have now.

This is exactly what I did. I literally handed in my old passport and picked up the new one today.

I just got a new passport (today actually) from an overseas consulate. I applied for it about a month ago and was able to keep my old passport in the meantime by showing my airline ID because I also had a trip to the US to do. It was just another one page form to fill in; no extra fee or anything ap...

It's amazing how whiny people are these days.

Jack taught my first ever ground school class. That guy had some good stories... RIP.

I prefer it to ice pilots as well, little less drama although it is windy there some, of the reporting and actual winds are over done a bit. You don't land a light Cessna in a direct 40 knot cross wind. From eye balling it the stronger winds shown seem to be in the 20-25 knot range which is still p...

Initial medical was in BC in 2006 and mine starts with 501

Potential Solution: The relativistic motion of clocks on board GPS satellites exactly accounts for the superluminal effect, says physicist. It's now been three weeks since the extraordinary news that neutrinos travelling between France and Italy had been clocked moving faster than light. The experim...

Yes and any mass will make the formula go up exponentially as you approach the speed of light. No mass, no momentum, no energy required to accelerate it to the speed of light (Well, not quite. The problem of energy and light (photons) is why we came up with quantum mechanics in the first place). I ...

Well, here's how physics works according to current theory: Neutrinos have mass therefore they cannot travel faster than the speed of light because they would have to have infinite momentum and so it would take an infinite amount of energy to accelerate them to that speed. Momentum formula that you ...

How did you manage to have a faster up speed than down?

Good luck with your training!

Bogus, totally hillarious.

Hahahaha

152 vs 172? Not going to be much difference if you ask me. Have you considered other FTU's on the field? IPFA has Katanas (or at least had them last time I was there).

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/48293 When I first started reading this thread I was dismayed about what a bunch of idiots we (pilots) are. My vote was for 288 and my TI-83 calculator backed me up. Math is non negotiable right? Wrong! Apparently the math community lacks the common sense to clearly de...

Just copy and paste it to google search. Gives you the answer. Nope, Google adds parentheses and operators to clarify the problem. There is no debate that (48/2)*(9+3) = 288, that is what Google solves for you. Throw the equation into a pocket calculator. All of mine make the same assumption that I...

Hey "BigglesNBella" sounds like someone is bitter about not getting a flying scholarship. Another former member here, 6 years with 744 squadron. There's a lot of us that got our start in this industry from the Cadet program. Its not for everyone but It changed my life in a positive way. But I chose...
