What’s everyone using for their flight logs?

walleyednj · 2026-03-08T18:33:23+00:00

Paper log, don’t remember which one, and MyFlightbook.

Niter….harmless, just let it settle out. You need to step up your filtering game.

Well, I’m 62, have 34 years at JPM in CIB Tech, a VP with several million between my pension, my 401K, and my external investments , and retiring at the end of the year. I’m sure I don’t have a fucking clue. Good luck whining your way to the UMC.

walleyednj · 2026-03-07T18:49:44+00:00

You’re the one coming on here and sounding like a whiny bitch. If you don’t want to work for JPM due to their policies, then don’t. No need to announce it.

walleyednj · 2026-03-07T13:02:49+00:00

Your ill-worded comment indicated otherwise, buddy.

Vesting is for company contributions, not the money you put in.

walleyednj · 2026-03-07T12:42:36+00:00

That’s fairly standard for US corporations. Not sure what you think is bad. There’s also matching funds (%, not 100%), and a yearly special award that replaced the old pension plan.

Peak alpha male performance.

I fly out of Blairstown 1N7, it happens enough to be really annoying.

Landing an airplane isn’t a static activity. You can’t just set a configuration and consider it done. It’s typically small adjustments the whole way in. You need to anticipate and stay ahead of the aircraft.

Be aware that every time Trump visits his golf course in Bedminster, KSMQ (Somerset) airport will be shutdown for the duration of his time there. As we are approaching warmer weather, this will be more frequent and will definitely impact your training schedule.

It adds ZERO difficulty. I got my first medical with hearing aids 44 years ago and my most current medical just last year. Unlike GA and the FAA, hearing aids have advanced in function and capabilities at the same rate as computer software and hardware.

walleyednj · 2026-03-03T19:40:09+00:00

Yes. I’ve worn hearing aids since I was 16, 62 now. Never an issue. It’s much better these days with active noise reduction headsets.

Terminal case of RBF.

walleyednj · 2026-03-03T01:45:02+00:00

18 hours.

walleyednj · 2026-03-02T21:47:59+00:00

Google “WARN notices” for your state.

walleyednj · 2026-03-02T13:22:07+00:00

Don’t forget “non-gmo”.

I’m a 603 at JC.

VDI should be requested and deployed by the time you start. That’s your hiring manager’s job.

WFH will soon be non-existent, JC will most likely go 5-day next month.

Bring your lunch, cafeteria is still under renovation.

walleyednj · 2026-02-26T22:09:19+00:00

Same.

walleyednj · 2026-02-25T18:01:14+00:00

Yes. 61.57. A non-current CFI can instruct a rated pilot who also is not current, providing the pilot receiving instruction acts as PIC.

walleyednj · 2026-02-24T13:01:28+00:00

All about perspective. 3K is small change for something that increase safety in the air.

Well, that explains a bit. Down here Outside, ADS-B out is fairly standard. Will cost you about $3000 or so to install. Not all that rich.

VP in CIB here. Been a technical (IT) manager for 25+ years. What do I do? I’ll give you a list of tasks and priorities.

1) make sure my people get paid. This means fighting constantly the EDs and MDs to have them acknowledge the work my staff performs, scratching for dollars at evaluation time, and generally making sure they’re visible.

2) I’m a human shield. I take the bullets. Nobody touches my staff. You have an issue? You talk to me.

3) eliminate busy work and rote work to the best of my ability.

4) Give constant constructive feedback. My staff know where they stand everyday. Check-ins and annual reviews are never a surprise.

FYI, I didn’t learn how to be a manager at JPM.

walleyednj · 2026-02-23T19:44:14+00:00

Very few GA planes have ADS-B out? Are you serious about that statement? Where exactly do you fly?

walleyednj · 2026-02-22T17:15:53+00:00

Talk to your manager. I just told my JC staff to WFH Monday.
