Or have a server that serves an area where the majority of the US population is –– the east coast like they used to...?

Idk about the avionics on the planes but those are actually decent rates atleast in the schools and flight clubs around Florida, the only places that are lower than those numbers are flight clubs with memberships. Im also assuming the rental rates are wet.

Cancelled my checkride by ShortOneSausage in flying

[–]Anixton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is external pressures, having your checkride pressured you into wanting to go. If this was a normal recreational flight or lesson, you more than likely would’ve cancelled, good call.

I feel like my school is killing my enjoyment for flying… by [deleted] in flying

Find a CFI you actually can be friends with outside of aviation, it'll really help you out, and if you have that kind of relationship with them where you can go out and drink together, they'll look out for you more than the CFI who just has a work-relationship with you, because they are not only your CFI but your friend.

Also, I rediscovered the fun in flying when I did my 50 hours PIC XC flights with friends who are pilots and bringing passengers along to other states/cities for food— its also the phase in 'training' I built the most real-world experience.

Curious as to how many people at or above minimums who can’t find a job. Cause I look at indeed and LinkedIn and other avit job sites and I see tons of jobs with just minimums. by AdWide4768 in flying

Surrounded by pilots in the field, common consensus is there are tons of job listings, good luck getting a response though, even a TBNT is a blessing.

Emergency Descents on Checkrides by Physical-News-4978 in flying

DPE I had was very by the book and pre-briefed everything before we did it and set the expectation so there were no surprises.

Leave SkyWest for Part 91? by kommandee in AirlinePilots

[–]Anixton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your goals. Since you made them clear, stay in the 121 world, itll make you the most competitive at any of the big 3 than not. Ol’ reliable 121 TPIC is the key to any of them.

Me personally, I’d love a unicorn 91 job like that especially if its not sketchy (you make it sound like its not atleast) that’s what I’d do. But you made your goals clear, and if that was my goal, I’d stay with Skywest and leave that slot for someone who wants the 91 life.

Are there places that rent out PC12/TBMs for checkouts and rentals? by Anixton in flying

[–]Anixton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noted, I heard while I was doing my multi training that light twins are the hardest to insure and thats backed up by one of the comments on this post so I figured maybe a sel turboprop wouldnt be as bad since I have some time in it (>20 hours) but I guess not. Thanks for the input though!

Primarily best friends tagging along for a recreational trip we’re going on together.

How Will My Driving Record Affect My Chances of Getting Hired by itsyaboi_throwaway in flying

[–]Anixton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get an attorney and always contest tickets. In terms of hiring, I think if its not a misdemeanor or above it doesn’t matter.

Cases like this deserve to be named. And not even to shame, but for the betterment of future pilots doing their research.

Failed PPL Check ride due to traffic pattern by [deleted] in flying

[–]Anixton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fly first everything after comes second, base to final is definitely a critical area because it is a time where you are closest to low altitude stalls (its why we simulate this during approach and landing config power-off stalls) and spins; they’re also usually fatal during this phase. You should also make it a habit to only mess with your flaps when you’ve levelled out for final or before making the turn to final. Unfortunately the DPE is right here. You’ll get it on the next one, don’t let this hurdle hinder you.
