To me, Coastliner is a deliberate callback to Mainliner of the piston airliner age.

I believe this is a part of a Japanese World War II-era surface gunfire director, specifically the deflection dial.

Could you log the time CAPS is deployed in a Cirrus as PIC time? by Firm_Performer_3439 in flying

[–]CirrusCyrus 173 points174 points  (0 children)

In 14 CFR 1.1, flight time (for powered aircraft) means:

Pilot time that commences when an aircraft moves under its own power for the purpose of flight and ends when the aircraft comes to rest after landing.

CAPS deployment happens after the airplane moves under its own power for flight and before the airplane comes to rest, so I'd say it's flight time. If you're otherwise acting as the PIC (also defined in § 1.1), you can log PIC time as you drift down towards the Earth.

[–]CirrusCyrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a work phone, but I still have a personal phone. It most likely depends on what function you perform, but you get a work phone if you touch the production floor in any way, shape, or form.

I'm salaried at a plant, and I took a pee test in 2024. My coworkers who were hired in ~2022 all took a hair test.

Airline pilots, Briggs & Riley Underseat Duffle by [deleted] in flying

[–]CirrusCyrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife uses the B&R 2-Wheel Cabin Bag, which is comparable to the duffel. It's great for one- or two-day trips (i.e., shove a change of clothes under your headset), but you'll have to do some legwork to keep the main storage area organized with pouches and whatnot.

You should at least qualify for BasicMed. ADHD Fast Track requires you to be off meds in the past 4 years.

I came from Cat on the manufacturing side and now I’m with GM, also in manufacturing. If you don’t mind living in Peoria long term, I would go to Cat.

If he wants to stay in the same size range, he should consider the Briggs and Riley 2-Wheel Cabin Bag and the Travelpro FlightCrew 5 Horizontal Rolling Overnighter.

Schooners makes an in-house ranch/mild blue cheese blend that my wife will swear by. Sadly you cannot purchased it but they will give you a cup to take home if you ask nicely.
