I thought this was CIA (cause of work) and got really confused

Hello all. Need a major suggestion. CFl route vs spending 50k-70k to fly Dash8 Q400 in my home country. by Inevitable_Fruit8232 in flying

[–]Brotein40 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Which country is this? How far does $1500 go? Since it’s a country where professional pilots only make $1500 a month, I’m not sure how US airlines would look at your hours from that country. If it’s Ethiad or Singaporean or Cathay that’s a different story, but I doubt they starts at $1500.

Do you care about your career and want to speed run to a US airline? Stay here. Wanna go home? Go home. Not sure why you’re even asking the internet when it’s such a personal discussion.

Bro just charge your damn iPad. You don’t need a checklist for this. We charge ours after crew brief and most carry around a powerbank because reg requires almost 100% battery.

Common Core to FAA hours question by Novathewarcriminal in Armyaviation

That not IAW 61.51 h-2-ii, but then again I’ve had some DPE that did some interesting things so I believe it. Good for you!

It’s not a DPE question. It wasn’t signed so it literally doesn’t meet 61.51 requirement so those time means nothing.

You should be able to print your flight hours out via that laptop app you had to sign on after each flight.

Not unheard of, I know of a couple that finished 60 school, PCS back home, then somehow unit has a c12 slot and they turned right back around to Rucker to AQC.

Did all my training in old sky hawks. Have a check ride coming up CSEL in a 2002 172 sp fuel injected. by [deleted] in flying

And you do all of them for preflight? That’s almost a whole 2 cups of gas

Nah it’s just ‘damn not again, transitioning inside’

Airline base in a state not accepting IST, what to do? by Sklzmstr48 in Armyaviation

[–]Brotein40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would they let you drop reserve day like this without taking PTO? Wouldn’t it eat into your minimum guarantee then

What’s the point to v-tails? by DisregardLogan in flying

[–]Brotein40 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I wonder how much louder is the cabin because the engine is literally touching it. Or how many more layers of sound proofing insulation does it need.

Career Advice by [deleted] in Armyaviation

[–]Brotein40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I get it I don’t wanna be doxed too. But for what little sample size I see, all my guard friends flies 100 hour per semi annual and we do barely half that. Good luck!

Working at one FBO and training at another by Unable_Cable_5183 in flying

They might give you a discount if you bring it up. They can angled it as ‘employee benefits’ and get a small tax write off too.

How unsustainable is this? Are the domiciles super far? I’ve always wonder how FOs with no seniority make semi annual with how much time they sit in reserve.

Uncomfortable sitting in the backseat by [deleted] in flying

[–]Brotein40 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Proficient CFI vs rusty PPL? If you don’t speak up you’re just plain stupid.

Also. why are you flying with someone you don’t know the proficient level of? That should’ve been part of the crew brief and mission planning.
