Re: Northern Thunderbird Air

Agreed, everyone's opinion will be different. Once again I strongly disagree. To answer your question, yes I used to work there. The pilot group are great folk, save one or two who have hopefully moved on to something else. Mostly, and I know I'm not alone here, it's a person behind one desk in Vanc...

Re: BN2 Islander

The POH is an awkward read. Good luck. As for tricks, when you're really heavy...operating in the upgross mod range or beyond (6300lbs-6600lbs+ MTOW range) you can get an extra 5 knots if you lower the flaps in flight and pull the CB around 3-5 degrees flaps. This will freeze the flaps at that setti...

Porter Interview.

Maybe this is a no-brainer, but should I be wearing a suit to the interview or would business casual be ok? I've got plenty of ties however the cash to buy a suit is not there.

Suggestions?

Re: Set Cruise Power?

Another issue would be when you're pushing gross at high alts while picking up bags of ice. It can be difficult to maintain the min icing speed. I usually wait a good minute or two to get well above this speed. If cruise is set too early the aircraft might not accelerate in cruise. Then your stuck h...

Re: Islander Question

Another good tip to keep the noise down for Pax comfort is using a reduced prop setting during TO and climb out while still at max MP. It's listed in the confusing Brit. AFM though I cannot remember which section as it's been a couple years since I've flown a BN2. Oh, and if you use the pilot door f...

Re: ROMANTIC PARTNERS/ FLIGHT CREWS

Good point Sasquash! Working with someone you are dating is rarely a good idea. Often there are work related duties that are missed due to distraction, be it simply conversation, arguing or even physical contact. If the relationship fails, then you have an awkward situation for many people, includin...

Re: Logbook Question

flying4dollars has the right idea. I've been doing it that way for a couple years. Separate entires are far too time consuming esp for short hops and they burn-through the pages way too fast.

As long as you're not switching tails or crew, one entry per day works great.

After that, they asked what I knew about GGN, which was basically whatever was listed on the website. It was fairly straight forwar...
