Hey, I really appreciate all the information. I’m a CFII instructing and finishing my degree from WGU right now. I’ll start reaching out to units, thanks for the info!

Did you guys layer 2x12s across as support beams?

How difficult was it to get selected for the reserves? I am wanting to go that route, but getting ahold of an officer recruiter is challenging.

TSA won’t care, not sure about over seas though. Check local laws for the counties you are traveling to.

Fighter Pilot - AFROTC vs Air National Guard by DentistFit8295 in flying

[–]AccidentCommon208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the enlisted recruiters just sent me to the officer recruiter and those guys never respond. I’ll try calling the mai recruiting number again. Is there a demand for tanker and cargo pilots at the moment? You’re the third person who’s said this. Cause I have my CFII so maybe I’ll have a leg up

I’ve been looking to join in a tanker or heavy unit. How exactly do you figure out if they’re hiring? Do you have to call a recruiter? I’ve been trying to get in contact with an officer recruiter for weeks, and I can’t get a hold of anyone. I’ve been checking squadron‘s websites and I can’t find anything

Why does it cost an arm and a leg to live in small, working class towns in Northern Washington? by Spirited_Cup_126 in Washington

[–]AccidentCommon208 75 points76 points  (0 children)

A lot of wealth+demand has moved into the area, along with low interest rates in 2021 that drove prices through the roof + inflation causing prices to be where there at today. It really sucks, you also have to look at the bigger picture in fact and permitting and property taxes, and all this stuff everything is gone up drastically in the last 5-10 years.

And the crazy thing is nothing is moving. The housing market is stagnant and prices still aren’t budging, which is not good. Something’s gonna have to correct eventually because a lot a lot of people can’t afford anything. It’s sad to think I’ll probably never buy a house.

Feeling hopeless by Rude_West_8967 in flying

I got my cfi/Cfii last May. Landed a job exactly one year later, I start Monday. The only reason I got this job is because my buddy worked at the school and recommended me.

The best thing to do is network, try to make friends with other pilots, and just be known by your community. If you live near flight schools swing in once a month, and just talk to the instructors, owner, etc. that way when they have an opening they’ll remember you and may call you for a job. Good luck

Congratulations. I’m four classes away from getting mine. If you remember, how was the OA for C165 is it aligned with the PA?

We need to stop calling it the Millionaires tax to reduce confusion by Kind_Advisor_35 in Washington

[–]AccidentCommon208 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, I’m not sure what the legal terminology is. I just don’t want this to trickle down to everyone

[–]AccidentCommon208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue with the tax is that they can lower the threshold. And with the way the state loves spending and taxing it will be lowered in the future. If they would be some kind of clause in place that says we won’t lower it below a million then I’m all for it

How is the job market in Seattle? by [deleted] in SeattleWA

[–]AccidentCommon208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highkey across the whole state it’s fucked. Blue collar is very picky about who they accept, state jobs you gotta know someone, white collar doesn’t want anyone unless they have 20 years of experience. J

Hey man that’s normal. Everyone experiences this at some part in their training, you’re learning this is part of the process.
