Re: Resume via email worth it?

My last two jobs my resume was sent via email as well. For my current job I was contacted by the CP via text message. Use the medium that the person you are applying to prefers.

Re: Over-confident or Conceited Student

(b) OVER-CONFIDENT OR CONCEITED. You must first ensure that this type of student has the ability to match the confidence and, if so, set more difficult tasks that require greater accuracy.

Not always true. The worst instructor that worked for me was an older, retired person.

Re: Career advise!!

Believe it or not, people are less likely to hire a job jumper with more hours and experience than a stable pilot with less experience who put a few years in with previous companies.

My take would be to stay where things are good. If you already have 500 multi-pic the single time isn't going to hurt you.

Note: The Authorized Person must verify that the flight training requirements have been met by checking for a logbook, certified by the applicant's C.F.I. or Instructor. If you've got your ATPL, fill your boots however you want. Now the question is which logbook. Is a signed PTR is good enough? It'...

The nice thing about a paper logbook is that you can staple pictures of airplanes that you have flown and your friends into it. There's probably a regulation against it, but I have done this for decades. Many years from now, you will treasure those logbook entries of memorable flights, and photos o...
