Pssssst chhhk.....glug glug glug.. “But you said I was off duty...”

Apply for both, and take whichever one calls first? You might not have the choices that you think you do...one 'wrong' answer in the interview process..

Having a discussion at work: are you allowed, legally, to fly an ILS down to circling minimums, using an autopilot? That is, can you engage the A/P in approach mode, have it fly a coupled approach, and then hit altitude hold or disconnect at the MDA, and (assuming that you have the ceiling/vis) brea...

Just let them do their jobs.

They don't do their jobs.

I'm curious, what do you think their job is?

Harassing pilots for toothpaste and 'Leatherman' violations while disregarding crash axes and steel cutlery in Business?

Yup. That would actually solve the problem. If people move, eventually wages would have to go up or housing prices would need to come down. Ain't gonna happen in Vancouver. It's seen as being a nice place to live, internationally; air and water are clean, politics are stable, crime is negligible, e...

^ Newton's 4th (and lesser known) Law: For every opinion, there's an equal and opposite opinion

My opinion, FWIW, would be to do one at a time. Looking back, my 1st IFR was a bit of a struggle - lots of new stuff to learn and think of, and all the while still using a fair amount of CPU time just to keep 'er straight and level. After a year and a half instructing, and then 6 months on a 185, my...

Thus sayeth 'The Meat'!

I always wanted to fly a Norseman, despite my peers asking why the heck I wanted to do that. I figured that once I'd learned my craft well enough on 180/185/-2/-3/-3T, then someone would see fit to let me touch a Noorduyn. Sadly, my career has moved past that point now, but I'd like to think that th...

Perhaps use the search function, or look at the stickies at the top of the page?

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush...or, the perfect is the enemy of the good...take the first job that meets your needs, and then reassess if the circumstances change..

Maybe they both thought that it was the f/o’s job to check the fuel?

The whole process seems to be a little bit of a joke, IMHO. I recently went down to the US for sim, and had to get clearance from the TSA for the alien flight student program - a process that I’ve never undergone before. The final (and, one would think, most critical) part of the application was my ...

^ Let me guess: millennial on your second job in aviation? Thus has it ever been: pilots would screw over their mothers for career/seat/monetary advantage. Why do you think that starting salaries at major airlines are so poor? Because pilots in a position to to something about it have consistently v...

I wonder if there’s any connection?

Three major possibilities for a dual failure...
1.)mechanical issues with both engines at the same time (Highly unlikely)
2.) Fuel contamination
3.)Too much Air in the tanks.

To be fair to my fellow aviators, I’d be betting on #2.

Correct that it doesn’t look good for a RFP bid..

a new model was put in place where all crew (including doc if they keep them) was at hangar on standby. Which Drs are you going to keep on unproductive standby at the airport? Pediatric specialists? Heart specialists? Trauma? etc... Much more efficient from a total system point-of-view to keep the ...

Knowing some guys in the program, I’d think that they’d need to keep it pretty secret until they’ve decided exactly what is going to happen. My understanding is that Lifeflight is walking a very fine line in terms of personnel; announcing a shutdown for, say, a month down the road might end up with ...

Far more odious, from my point of view, is the pay-for-training that *all* the major carriers expose their new hires to. I can kinda get my head around the starting salaries at the regionals, because it seems, of late, that the experience level required to get in the front door isn't really commensu...

You could be right, but that would be in contravention of the CBA (draft): 3-1. PILOT SENIORITY LIST 3-1.01. The Company shall maintain an updated Pilot Seniority List (PSL). The PSL shall be published quarterly (Jan 1, Apr 1, Jul 1, Oct 1) with a copy to the Association. The PSL shall be posted el...

Can someone please outline the Jazz hiring process, please? Application is first, obviously. How do they get back to you after that? phone? Email? In person interview?
