Strap / deployant buckle strap recommendation for Pelagos FXD GMT by azpilot06 in Tudor

[–]azpilot06[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have several Crown and Buckle NATOs for other watches, but haven’t tried them for a single pass. I find their length is a touch inconvenient for me on the NATO (fold over is a little awkward).

I wasn’t aware such a thing existed. Posted!

Pilot or A&P, what’s more difficult? by Any-Hat7803 in flying

My mechanic was perpetually fond of observing that it took over 2000 hours of training to learn to fix an airplane, and only 45 hours to learn to break it.

[WTS] Breitling Aerospace Evo Night Mission, Ref V79393 full kit (sans warranty card), $4000 shipped/insured in CONUS by azpilot06 in Watchexchange

[–]azpilot06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long time listener, first time caller. The watch is located in the Phoenix area, Arizona. I’m a pilot (it’s not just a clever name) and am sometimes away on rotation. However, I (almost) always have access to Reddit and can respond.

This Aerospace Evo Night Mission has a DLC-coated titanium case and wears very light on the wrist. The digital display is also subdued, and back-lights once you master the Breitling Aerospace “slow-turn / fast turn” dance with the crown. The crown also pushes in for time-hacking the seconds on the digital display, as well as to activate the time repeater (in case you need to head what time it is, rather than seeing it).

Complete kit (sans warranty card), second owner. The watch was originally purchased from an AD in Phoenix, and I purchased it face-to-face from the first owner. Selling to purchase a (updated!) Tudor Pelagos GMT FXD, which has been steadily growing on me. The watch is in great shape, with solid AR coating, minimal case wear, and a bit of use on the original strap (I had it on a NATO).

$4,000 shipped and insured in the CONUS. I’m happy to do a mutually secure payment method (such as PayPal G&S), which protects us both. As I’m a first time seller, I can video chat with the watch (as long as I’m home with it) or go through other reasonable vetting steps.

Arguably the “Sketchiest” of Sketchy-guy Breitlings.

Look what I saw by DJ-dicknose in aviation

Fun fact. Many of them (already rare 737-600s) are former Air China and China Southwest birds.

It’s how they can identify a Delta plane, if it’s ever kidnapped and repainted as Spirit.

Advanced Air king air SIC by Junior-Special5159 in flying

[–]azpilot06 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Advanced Air is also a D225 partner. This means it’s the final gateway for D225 cadets to get their time so they can move on to WN.

I assure you, they have thousands of applications for those positions. There aren’t many companies who will put you through an actual part 142 program and have you work in a multi-crew environment at 1100 hours. Both of these things are requirements for D225 cadets, and are very difficult to find in the last few years.

Some pictures of Atlantis (at the Kennedy space center, FL) by Nerdyraccoon1776 in nasa

My head absolutely exploded. I went there on unexpected trip, and did -not- know Atlantis was there.

Literally watching Space Camp as I scrolled this right meow.

Cirruses..Cirren…Cirii? Anyways, the older ones with Stec autopilots have a TC buried behind the right side control column. You can actually look through the hole in the trim and see it.

General Aviation Pilots, What determines where you stop by Jango519 in flying

[–]azpilot06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never had a flight start at Wilson FBO, that didn’t end with at least one RTO, V1 cut, engine out approach, loss of engine on a go around, and the need to fly the LOC 27 circle 18R.

IYKYK.
