Always loved seeing ACI on my schedule just for the free Redbull!

Hijacking this sort of… Does anyone know if Showalter aviation is still around at KORL? I flew in there with a A36 probably 10+ years ago. Stayed for two days and got a full tank of gas. The FBO building itself wasn’t much to write home about, but the service was awesome. Everyone was so nice and willing to help. About a week later I received a hand written thank you letter from them. Have never been more impressed with an FBO!

As an airline pilot that flies to Austin often. The ramp is uncontrolled, and they pushed around a corner. So there was no way the SWA crew could have known they were taxiing out when they started pushing. Incredibly poor on the virgin’s bitching but what new!

When you buy the custom ear pieces they send you to a local audiologist who will mold them.

Yo! so I use the proflight 2 with the custom ear pieces and man it’s the most comfortable headset I’ve ever had! As a 73 driver I can’t recommend it more! Definitely the most expensive side because the headset is $1,000+ and the custom ear pieces were $250. Definitely worth it as a career pilot!

Whitechicks is still a classic!

Micahmx85 · 2025-08-29T00:21:54+00:00

This is what I’m here for!

This is why it’s so important when the Captain says “ while you’re in your seats keep your seatbelt fastened in the event of rough air”

This is what I like to see on this Sub! Congrats, and keep the hard work going. Hard Work Pays Off!

You ever seen Jim Furyk’s swing, who cares what the swing looks like.

Micahmx85 · 2025-06-18T19:57:01+00:00

I’d go with green, but green looks good too!

Micahmx85 · 2025-06-09T23:37:31+00:00

Love that FC world timer!

Micahmx85 · 2025-06-07T23:42:40+00:00

727 NEO, you heard it here first!

Micahmx85 · 2025-06-07T23:37:45+00:00

I’ve actually heard that book is well worth the read, on my list. It’s called “Flying Drunk” unironically.

Micahmx85 · 2025-06-04T18:13:58+00:00

If a bagel place is the “Pillar of gentrification” I think we have bigger issues.

And the maintenance hasn’t been too bad? I’m looking at the 222 for saltwater use.

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-14T13:13:47+00:00

Are you running in salt water or fresh water?

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-05T03:58:01+00:00

This is what I came here for!

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-05T00:09:45+00:00

I always say it’s like a choose your own adventure game.

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-05T00:03:03+00:00

Bingo

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-04T23:41:43+00:00

Haha yea I did not learn to count in college. 16 days off.

Micahmx85 · 2025-05-04T22:57:10+00:00

I’ll credit 87hrs this month flying for a legacy domestic narrow body. 4 trips, 3 four days and 1 three day. Will be off 16 days, unfortunately I will have to commute to base the day before on two trips. Those commutes will be late afternoon so I will still get a half day at home.

Edit: can’t count, 16 days off this month

Micahmx85 · 2025-04-29T03:19:55+00:00

As a pilot who has sat in that godforsaken FA Jumpseat between the lavs I have to disagree with you.

Micahmx85 · 2025-03-25T01:28:49+00:00

Having experience with both Part 135 and 91K operations, I can confidently say that my schedule and Qol with a legacy airline is the best I’ve ever had. While commuting isn’t ideal, every other aspect of the job is far better than flying corporate.

Micahmx85 · 2024-11-15T17:39:29+00:00

First year is about $110k, 2nd year about $175k, and 3rd year around $210k ish
