    Eff you SWA

    Why are you upset about an airline wanting more efficiency that would benefit everyone, including other airlines? Are they wrong?

    Airvan GA10 Certified

    I think the goal is the in between markets of the 208 and 206. I liked the GA8 for the most part. Kind of quirky. Crosswinds were fun.

    FAA Redefines Slow Flight and Stall Procedures

    Exactly - correlation. Training them to be safe pilots. I believe in the Private ACS the discriminator is 5-10 knots before...I can't recall if that is before warning or full stall. There is a thread about it in the CFI sub.

    ACS Slow Flight Instruction??

    Isn't the discriminator that the airspeed should be maintained approximately 5-10 Knots above the 1G stall speed (at which the airplane is capable of maintaining controlled flight without activating a stall warning)?

    Feel the adrenaline

    Last line gig I worked we serviced their operation for a local sort, passports I think. Didn't last long but it was cool to see it even in its dying days. Never got a chance to even apply.

    Flying my first turboprop

    That is some good stuff - thanks. @Mavmb as a basic intro the FAA AFH (8083-3B) Chapter 14 is a general overview for transitioning to turbine operations. The "Everything Explained" book is great in giving a clear perspective on alternates and 135 regulations.

    Anyone know of a good flight school around Philly?

    Well - they have a Cessna 140 and a 170 so why shes flying a Cherokee beats me. :) I just saw it on the wall there while taking the FIA. No affiliation.

    How to Transition Areas with Skydiving Activity

    Generally right over the drop zone, upwind of the 'spot' and maybe offset. I have used linear landmarks - peas to intersection, up the runway, etc. which is local speak at the DZ. The spotter will ask "where is the spot?" and I will respond with the 'lines' we generally use and we are both on...

    RJs not at regionals

    The NASCAR Air Force is cool - always a fun and busy time on the ramp with those groups. I believe Gibbs had Saab 2000s - 2, maybe 3 previous to the CRJ. As did Hendrick. I think they are all at Penn Air now (@ASpilot2be ?). Waltrip Racing has been operating a 200 for a while, maybe 2...

    Skydiving Pilot Orlando, FL area

    Not saying it cannot be done with more TT, but DZ's generally like to see diver driving time in a 182/206, then moving on to large turbine equipment. Or an in reverse, like a retired pilot or a long term GA pilot that does it for fun. Most of that is because of insurance though. Regardless...

    I'm not - I make no excuse :) "Urban" hunting can provide its challenges and rewards. If there were more turkey in my immediate area I would do it locally like whitetail. For example, the next property over is the hide of a horse - meaning the biggest buck I have seen. I've seen him twice...

    FIFY :) Congrats on your bird! Chasing gobblers is what got me into hunting - I still have yet to bag one. Then again I pursue those stubborn PA mountain Easterns. Last year my buddy and I finished up the day, I went to take a leak, and fetch the decoys. I had called in a Jake about 50 yards...

    Glo Airlines Saab 340 FO (135 so no ATP required New Orleans, LA)

    That's correct - its a 135 non-scheduled certificate using DOT380 public charter, I believe on EAS routes on aircraft with 30 seats or less. So, 121 minimums don't apply. They also operate JS31/32s and J41s on the same principal. APC has a page on them under 135.

    I believe Summit does a subscription for updated regulations and other additional items if regulatory nature. Yearly or quarterly and I do believe you can cater it to specifics the individual is operating under.

    Anyone got insight for a fresh commercial pilot?

    What? You learn a ton flying divers! Such as the beer payment structure, pie tradition, and that the pilots seat gives you a great view of well endowed women who choose not to wear a jumpsuit on their tandem jump. Very key components to your future success as a professional pilot.
