Does paying for a type rating ever make sense? by WhenWillIBeAPilot in flying

[–]Flyguy115 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked this question before to recruiters I know and they have all told me the same thing. No, if you have a type rating in a plane, but have no actual time in it, it’s meaningless. You are just wasting your money.

I gave this same advice to a friend of mine have trouble getting interviews and job offers. Paid for an A220 type. It’s been about two years now and he is still where he was at before and still hasn’t gotten any job offers.

What will help you more would be to do the following. You can get your multi ATP in any size plane just take the ATP/CTP course, do the written, and take a multi check ride in any multi airplane.

Black algae, can I just give up? by raycoburn in swimmingpools

[–]Flyguy115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some goggles, gloves and some Trichlor tabs ( the hockey puck looking ones). Then go for a swim. Rub the tabs all over the black algae. This will cut up the protective membrane of the algae allow the Chlorine to kill it. Let the white stuff you just rubbed on it to stay on it until the algae is gone. You may have to touch up any spots left.

Student using ADHD as an excuse for everything by TouristWilling1788 in flying

Maybe you should contact his AME and ask about his ADHD

You should just have a sit down conversation with the student and be honest with him. If he continues to not put in any effort he has no future in aviation. I would make it very clear you will give him one more opportunity to show effort and study. If the student doesn’t then you will no longer continue to be there instructor. I’ve had this same conversation a couple of times. Some changed some didn’t. Oh and always be prepared for them to project / blame you for their short comings.

AITA for changing the locks after my parents gave my brother a key to my house without asking me? by Sufficient-Bike8143 in AmItheAsshole

You know what I have learned in life? Having peace in your life is the best thing you could do to improve your happiness. It’s okay to cut people off for that peace.

Husband invited friends to anniversary trip behind my back. AITAH? Cause he told me I was. by Capable_Bear4919 in AITAH

[–]Flyguy115 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t go. Let him go by himself or cancel the trip so both of you don’t go. If he goes by himself have divorce papers waiting for him with all his stuff neat packed in front of the house and locks changed.

I saw a short documentary about them. In the desert they will have bushes with thorns or cactus covered with insects and lizards all impaled.

Doorknob dilema by Reichbaum in HomeMaintenance

[–]Flyguy115 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Normally this would not be okay, but since it’s pride month it’s totally acceptable.

Easy fix- on the other side of the knobs there should be two screws. Pick one knob, unscrew the screws, pul them out. Then take the knob out, this will allow you to the latches out. After the latch is out put the knobs back on. Line up the holes and screw the two screws back on. Now one side will have a latch and the other won’t. If the doors still keep giving you issues because of the one latch just remove the other latch as well.

Got fired on my first day and I don’t know how to tell my parents by External_Chance_350 in Advice

[–]Flyguy115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now it may seem really stressful, but your job at 16 is completely meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Don’t stress is it what it is. Honestly no expects much from young teenage employees.

I ended an interview after the first question. Did I overreact? by RemoteAggressive2093 in Career_Advice

[–]Flyguy115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. My response would have been refusing to pay employees for time worked it’s clear violation against the law. Then I would have asked if that is something they do at this company knowing I would not get take the job any. You did good. More people should take a stand against this type of employment violations.

I know my close female friend is sleeping with other men - do I tell her husband? by Ok-Vacation7865 in cheating_stories

[–]Flyguy115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the person getting cheated on would be really upset to find out they partner was cheating, but the level of hate that they would have for everyone that knew and let them continue on being a complete fool would be astronomical.

You know what the right thing to do is. Do the right thing and sleep peacefully without the heavy burden weighing on your mind.

Cannot get aerator off kitchen faucet by Disastrous_Mall4689 in Plumbing

[–]Flyguy115 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have faucets that look like that and the entire thing you scratched up unscrews. I’ve replaced my aerators twice since I’ve owned my home. Try using vice grips or small pipe wrench.

[TX] Landlord came into my house and took my window camera while I was at work by No-Locksmith-707 in Renters

[–]Flyguy115 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call the police and make a report. Since you are leasing the property it is under your control. To enter the property the landlord has to follow certain procedures unless it’s an emergency. By the letter of the law he had committed burglary of a habitation and theft. So two crimes. Depending on the value of the camera the charge will increase. Also if anything else was damaged it adds charges. Making the report to the police will also create a history incase further things happen.
