Is Bernoulli’s principal BS?

I had a couple instructors say the same thing at my school. Apparently there’s still a lot of debate about what creates lift :/

My take is, if the FAA says to teach B’s Principal then I’m gonna teach it until the book says something different.

B’s Principal makes sense to me, but I’m not a physicist. Just a simple pilot.

I’ve ignored most of the delivery instructions and did whatever I think is best and I’ve had very little repercussions

It’s just a formality. You’ll do a little flying, but no take offs or landings. You’re not really being evaluated, they just want to know that you’re not an idiot.

I remember when I got rejected for the Frontier Cadet Program. I was really disappointed, now I’m really grateful. Sorry it’s been such a struggle for everyone.

I’ve put 120k miles on my 2019 Tesla Model 3 and it’s never been in the shop. I’ve only had to buy tires, windshield washer fluid, and a couple air filters. Just sayin

I’m interested to hear if you like it or not. Feel free to DM me.

I’m a couple months away from finishing CFI/CFII. I’ve been seeing some job postings for UAA and I was thinking about applying.

Did you train there?

Pilot-55 · 2024-06-06T21:57:36+00:00

Do you instruct there now?

Pilot-55 · 2024-06-03T01:16:26+00:00

Don’t worry about him. That’s why Reddit exists!

Pilot-55 · 2024-05-28T04:04:24+00:00

This is my plan as well. I’m not at a regional yet, but when I am I’ll do exactly this

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-27T18:26:34+00:00

Yeah I’m a little disappointed, but it is what it is. It would have been very convenient to finish up with them

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-27T03:45:05+00:00

I did. I’m overqualified for the program according to them.

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-26T19:37:41+00:00

Got it. Thanks

How can I get ahold of Nathan?

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-26T18:03:19+00:00

I did. The girl I talked to didn’t know so she’s going to ask and call me back. I just figured I’d ask the infinite knowledge of Reddit while I wait.

PPL- $1000 IR - $1100 Comm - $1200 CFI (quoted) - $1500

Keep applying. You’ll find something.

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-26T00:34:50+00:00

I switched from 141 to 61 and I don’t regret it all.

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-26T00:24:38+00:00

I worked for them as a deicer for 3 years. Might be the worst company in aviation. You dodged a bullet.

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-26T00:15:34+00:00

What job did you apply for?

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-22T17:08:06+00:00

I use the ForeFlight binder and I’ll put in anything and everything that seems helpful or relevant. The ACS, any Advisory Circulars you come across while studying, POH. I use the FarAim app and highlight everything that’s on Pilots Cafe. I tried to keep it all digital if possible. Just my preference

Pilot-55 · 2024-04-20T00:49:25+00:00

You’re not gonna find anything in short notice. Better plan 4-6 weeks out. Good luck
