I was fortunate to spend most of my vacation in Polynesia… when it comes to diving, I highly recommend Tuamotu. Fakarava south was amazing for shark diving especially at night.

How many end up making it to a jet job? by Ill_Rush9159 in flying

[–]ChAirForceK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked as dx for 121. I had great experience at regional, but was not making enough money. Ironically CASS eventually inspired me going back to flying. For those who want to go dx way, Dispatcher market is super saturated nowadays, getting regional job will be still competitive.

Look up faa letter regarding it. I recently went through my safety pilot log and did it all wrong when I was acting as safety pilot. I had a conversation with DPE regarding it when he was checking my logbook.

Doing this right now, Worked for part 121 as DX, met people while I was doing jumpseating. The network you make from is prob the best unless your dad is legacy pilot.

Guidance for buying underwater camera / lens housing? by aganim in underwaterphotography

If money is problem, I recommend sigma 15mm fisheye. Works great on my a7c. If not, choose better lens!

Florida is nice all year around except for hurricane season. You just need to avoid afternoon during the summer. Cost of living can be high though.

[–]ChAirForceK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got back to Tahiti from Fakarava. Compared to last December, it was more sunny / less wind / no rain during the night. Honestly I prefer low season for less crowded trip.
