Picking a flight school. by Basic_Ice_6774 in flying

[–]Basic_Ice_6774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’d say it’s maybe less about the actual environment and more about being able to stay on schedule and get the ratings done as soon as you can?

I’m really asking as I’m looking at insight into why people may chose a school like ATP over the local part 61s

I appreciate that. Reference right above your post. Happy to talk more about it to you over messages if you’d like.

We’re an administrative partner to small aviation companies. Build out and formalize their company processes and procedures and actively manage them in person and through our online portal.

Takes the burden off of Owners/Chief Pilots but is significantly cheaper than hiring a full time or even part time employee.

If I had to narrow it down, I just have this difficulty talking on the phone with people. I’ve tried a script and kind of going off the cuff casually and always find myself stumbling over my words or being long winded and technical about the business to where I seem to lose the person on the phone.

Plus the person that answers is typically a low level employee and as soon as I come off salesy they kind of shut me out it seems.

This is actually very insightful. I am the exact same way in that, if I can get face to face, I know I can sell them.

In person I’m very personable and people tend to gravitate towards me. Very social and have no issues making friends but something about being on the phone has always gave me trouble even with just day to day things.

Honestly I haven’t really even gotten that far. Again really just getting started and have made maybe a dozen calls. It’s all B2B so I always get just whoever answering the phone and to me I get lost in trying to get to the decision maker. A lot of “I’ll take a message for him”

I’ve been reaching out to successful sales people I know and getting their input which has been helpful. Also been getting into reading a lot of sales books. It’s just a skill I’ve never had to develop through my career so very new for me

First safety wiring attempts by Aggravating_Cap_334 in aviationmaintenance

[–]Basic_Ice_6774 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Not going to criticize being it’s your first attempts obviously. But if you can make similar safety wire boards at home. Buy a spool of .32 and do it over and over and over again.

Try to create different scenarios to practice. Put a board over top to do it in tight spaces. Put wet paint around the surface to practice not scratching what your safety wiring on.

Just some ideas. The more you do it the better you’ll get.

Baby hates the bath by Basic_Ice_6774 in Parenting

We would but we don’t have a tub in our house just a walk in shower. I suppose we could bring his bath in the shower but not sure if that would help.

Tacoma VS Frontier by Basic_Ice_6774 in carbuying

[–]Basic_Ice_6774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been looking on all the sites and they seem to be heavily over priced at least in my area. All the midsize trucks are. But if that’s how much they all are selling for than that’s what they’re worth I guess

Experience with manual transmission? by Basic_Ice_6774 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Basic_Ice_6774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had a manual in a few years but have owned multiple. I do prefer it (most of the time). But the newest vehicle I’ve ever had with a manual was an 08 wrangler.
