Re: Aviation Jobs in High Demand?

Given the current state of affairs in the industry, are there jobs/trades in aviation (other than pilot) that are always in demand? I'm thinking of something you could start out as and transition into becoming a pilot easily. What kind of other skill would get you hired easily? Thx! Dispatch Are th...

Re: Sky Regional: The slowest path to Mainline?

Definitely. The only thing that's sure is that you're put on hold for 2 years at Sky before your application is put into AC. Recent numbers seem to be 2/month Sky to AC.

Re: Electronic Pilot Logbook!!! Any Suggestions?

Yeah, I saw the list but I was wondering if anyone had first-hand advice from migrating from LT Pro specifically. I do use one of the LT Pro Jeppesen templates (modified with my signature so I don't have to sign hundreds of pages) to print out the whole logbook from time to time. I'm hoping not to ...

Re: king air 100 gear retract speed??

Not sure how much help this is going to be but for the 200 the retraction speed was slower for the nitrogen blowdown alternate gear extension. It was 130kts retraction vs the regular 163kts.
