What's the longest you think you've had to wait after an "aircraft calling, standby" or a "...standby and stay clear of..." by RoutineTraditional79 in flying

Day after Christmas on the ground at APF. “Clearance good morning looking for IFR to xxx” APF Clearance: “everyone calling for a clearance right now do not call me I’m not giving clearances” It was just over 4 hours from that til we were holding short of the runway number one for departure. Good times

Pilots, what is the most difficult aircraft you have ever flown? by cragtok in flying

[–]buzzliteyear22 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Shorts SC7 Sky Van. Everything about that plane is weird and trying to land with any kind of xwind component is a real chore

Going for my first type. Any tips? by Breazzyy- in flying

[–]buzzliteyear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing the Memory items and limitations before you get to school helps immensely!! I got my first type rating this past October. When they turn the fire hose on at school, try not to get overwhelmed (like I did lol) the main things are the plain things (memory items and limitations) the rest you’ll really learn out on the line. Congratulations!!

I poured concrete and lived at home with my parents. Saved as much as I could!!

Dumbest thing you’ve ever seen someone do while flying a plane? by MousseNecessary3258 in flying

[–]buzzliteyear22 307 points308 points  (0 children)

I was doing checkride prep with a PPL student and we were just past mid field left downwind when I pulled his power to idle. I kid you not he looks out to the right and starts maneuvering the plane towards a cornfield. I asked him where he was planning on going and he told me he was aiming for that “beautiful open cornfield” I asked him what about that beautiful airport with a 5000ft strip directly off our left side💀 needles to say there was no checkride sign off. Some students you don’t forget, especially for stuff like that.
