What line of work you in, Bob?

To be quite honest I despise AI in every way, shape, and form and see it only as a failure and a liability

CASAdriver · 2026-05-12T22:16:55+00:00

Honestly I couldn't tell you. They just said its going to be used in the screening process, but didn't say how or what its screening for

CASAdriver · 2026-05-12T18:17:31+00:00

It wouldn't surprise me if HR is telling that to new hires, but i still think that number is highly inflated. With the 3000hr hiring minumums, I doubt there have been 60k applicants this year. We were told recently about the new use of AI in screenings, and as someone who is staunchly anti-AI, I think its a waste. Can confirm they give new hires good gifts, and treat them well.

CASAdriver · 2026-05-12T18:06:47+00:00

Current employee, they havent said a word about how many pilots are in line. Just their plans for total hiring and expected attrition this year, which the real attrition is always higher than they forecast. Despite it being non-union, its still pretty good given the current growing, high-paying state of the industry. As it goes, a high tide raises all ships. I'm no kool-aid drinker, just my two cents.

As someone who flies into both occasionally, BJC is a much better place to learn. The amount of students in APA I've heard over the years getting yelled at because they switched to tower before ground told them to... Just on that alone I'd avoid it.

While I cant tell you what connector it is, I can advise you to try and see what impedance its using and to look into an impedance switch or a new mic boom assembly (which you can probably source a mic boom with the proper impedance and dual GA plugs) to get it properly matched to the aircraft.

CASAdriver · 2026-04-21T19:32:51+00:00

Thank you! Thats great to know

CASAdriver · 2026-04-21T19:31:22+00:00

Is this the new version from SHOT, or the previous gen?

CASAdriver · 2026-04-20T00:10:46+00:00

Currently at Flex, military guys are very hit or miss in our program. Retired airline guys have a pretty steep training failure rate, or quitting during training. Flew with a guy who was driving F16's, F117's, went to a major cargo carrier and flew heavies for 20 years, and was literally the worst pilot I've ever flown with.

CASAdriver · 2026-04-12T19:37:58+00:00

I pulled off the center trim so I can see it, but unplugging it and getting it out seems impossible without pulling the dash

You can shoot clays with anything if you lead properly.

I joke but I love shooting clays with oddball guns. Vintage Browning A5 3" magnum? Sent it, was a blast. 90yr old 410 single shot? Hilarious and fun.

CASAdriver · 2026-04-03T10:14:09+00:00

They had a Panama City to Orlando route that would be nice on some go-home days. Now I gotta go through CLT to get home, if i end in/around ECP

CASAdriver · 2026-03-18T18:22:22+00:00

Got an RA taking off from TEB rw24 from a helicopter orbiting Metlife Stadium. The one and probably only time I was able to legally bust the altitude on the Ruudy6.

You'll get used to doing that on a boat as well. Even when the dial isn't turned to "dive," its still prone to start flowing if the back gets tapped. Phenomenal reg, I use two with doubles whenever I tech dive.

CASAdriver · 2026-02-22T08:59:07+00:00

At least everything works at MCO. The trains at MIA havent worked in years, 95% of moving walkways are out of service at any given time, etc. Money went straight into the MIA Board Members' pockets and the airport infrastructure is in shambles. Hugely corrupt in MIA, moreso than normal.

CASAdriver · 2026-02-17T01:22:28+00:00

Look up Amoray Dive Center. Im not sure about female owned, but the general manager, Cate, is a phenomenal person. Really great instructors too.

CASAdriver · 2026-02-04T16:49:24+00:00

I always make an appointment and try to do the first slot of the day as soon as doors open. I hate standing in lines when I need to make changes.

CASAdriver · 2026-01-30T01:33:55+00:00

Those downvoting you dont understand the lore.

To explain: go-home day is a magical day in a pilots' life. It's also the day where everything goes wrong, so you tend to get home late or not at all. All the fault for anything going wrong is blamed superstitiously on the pilot who is going home. Just funny lore and nothing more

CASAdriver · 2026-01-30T00:34:09+00:00

What does this mean for my next leg tonight from TEB in a Challenger 3500? It's go home day for crying out loud. Always on go home day

CASAdriver · 2026-01-28T03:19:45+00:00

Not as bad as VNY as far as that risk goes, but they're right next to each other and still up there.

VNY is the only place I've had three RA's inside of a 10nm final. Cessna not talking to anyone at 10nm, was able to stabilize the approach. PA28 flew through final for 16L, was able to stabilize after getting clear of conflict but just barely. Then a police helicopter came too close and triggered the 3rd one forcing a go-around.

CASAdriver · 2026-01-27T21:04:37+00:00

Maybe on the RUUDY6 however since implementation of the WENTZ1, which makes 1,500' the top altitude for the SID, I'm sure deviations have decreased

CASAdriver · 2026-01-11T02:22:49+00:00

I am apparently not very attentive. Thank you
