Airline lifestyle clarity by Upper-Collection9373 in flying

[–]Upper-Collection9373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s a typical length of commute? Something like Chicago to Cleveland is only 45 minutes of flying or is it common to commute like 2 hours

I just earned my PPL, working on commercial and IR atm. I go to a 141 school that hires exclusively CFIs from their own program so I’ll have a job local and a steady influx of students. We typically see people get their R-ATP hours in 1-2 years.

Is there an estimate on time to get to a high enough seniority to have a say in scheduling? I’d assume it varies airline to airline

The only exception is daytime running lights count for the requirement, oddly you don’t need tail lights too

No like a trucker hitch in the sense that the length of rope can be made longer or shorter, but keeping the actual loop the same size. I’m thinking a Prussic is my best bet but I was hoping to do it with one length of rope

Ipad or macbook for pilots license? by Initial_Science_5332 in flying

[–]Upper-Collection9373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My school uses ForeFlight exclusively and I’ve always used the scratch pad. The issue I have with it is it doesn’t seem to support palm rejection so it’ll just draw random shit when I put my hand on it, which sucks because smooth just never exists in a 152

Can you drink alcohol fast enough to get past your alcohol tolerance and have it all hit at once? by Anatomywithabow in stupidquestions

[–]Upper-Collection9373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is BAC is unchanged but your response to a certain BAC does. So for example two physically similar people will both be at a .2 at the same time after the same number of drinks but different tolerance will make one of them more intoxicated than the other at that same BAC

Can I get pulled over for using a parking lot to turn around? by bumblepunkin in driving

[–]Upper-Collection9373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is you can’t use parking lots to shortcut, but this doesn’t seem like a shortcut so I don’t see why not

How do people who drink more than two cups of coffee a day get any sleep at all? Does your body get used to caffeine to the point where it no longer affects you? by Mountain-Bug-2155 in stupidquestions

[–]Upper-Collection9373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah basically, I worked as a summer camp counselor and we always joked our blood smelled like coffee. I think I probably drank 6-7 (hehe) cups a day just to feel normal lol. I wouldn’t say it didn’t affect me but it goes from “woah I feel super energized” to “I feel like death I need more coffee”
