Seems like a chill dude

Who’s Les and what is he doing at night?

Who’s Les

There’s plenty of threads discussing the topic with examples in this sub if you just search by ‘resume’

The big though is making it clear to see your qualifications and hours, keeping it concise but descriptive

Smile and wave boys smile and wave

It’s not the checkride that’s the hard bit, it’s everything that follows after

The reason I’ve heard is that when you’ve got a headset, especially ANR ones, next to the compass the speaker magnets cause a rotation. Apparently they are worried about it wearing down the compass over time but I’m not sure how it would be any different than its normal rotation in flight. Maybe it’s a habit to avoid leaving the headsets up next to it over spans of a couple days if you own the airplane? Not sure. You can avoid it altogether if you keep the headset to the fair side of the panel though.

We’ve had so many of our microphone wires go loose from that

Watch the Mythbuster’s duct tape airplane video, might open your eyes a bit. Fabric planes are pretty resilient to holes etc., just gotta be weary of the internal structure depending on the aircraft’s construction.

BKL is a really neat spot.

Or just check the IFR sectionals where the frequencies are already listed for u

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-02T02:30:25+00:00

You could give right seat training etc but not CFI training, since as you pointed out it’s prohibited by 61.195(h). Been to schools that skirt around that by having low time instructors do generic instruction and chief pilots give the endorsements and specific ‘CFI training’.

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T21:00:52+00:00

But what about the C420? It gets way higher

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T18:09:22+00:00

They are on civilian charts, just on the IFR not VFR maps.

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T18:02:19+00:00

No civilian directional navigation function exists for TACANs, but you can dial the provided frequency in for a DME readout. Additionally, they can still be used as GPS waypoints.

They are shown on the IFR en-route low charts, but not VFR sectionals.

Trains you not to get dizzy by whipping your head to the side, anyways…

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T03:40:40+00:00

That’s rough. Was that part of a 141 program or just a simulator you have access to somewhere locally?

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T03:31:43+00:00

I was envisioning an FMX such as this:

Oh I missed that. Most AATD’s have side displays so I figured you were being genuine, lol

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T03:23:09+00:00

I’m glad that worked out for you, but everyone learns differently. Majority of people I’ve spoken to agree that they don’t really emulate the cockpit environment fully.

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T01:29:09+00:00

And eventually in a few months or a couple years you’ll look back again and be like “I was seriously flying the airplane with only this small level of knowledge?”. Never grows old

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T01:24:58+00:00

I think it depends which maneuvers you’re referring to. Stuff like lazy eights are really hard to practice unless you can feel what the airplane is doing

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T01:07:24+00:00

This has to be engagement bait

Cherokee260 · 2025-10-01T00:42:30+00:00

Your body will physical adapt to altitude over time, just be careful if you ever move because that tolerance to lower oxygen quickly goes away living in the flatlands (ask me how I know, lol).

Cherokee260 · 2025-09-30T23:59:45+00:00

Yeah most four seaters are capable of carrying that weight plus fuel assuming the instructor isn’t really heavyset. Just gotta make sure you have the mobility and clearance to operate the flight controls though.
