Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate
Light twins are certainly different...but it's not rocket surgery. You won't be completely comfortable after 1-2 flights nor will you feel like you have mastered the airframe, but that is NOT required for the check.

Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate
Crazy Carl is disorganized, frustrating, and even insulting at times. But the results are worth putting up with his shenanigans. I'd look elsewhere if he has raised his prices, but for the 3-3.5k I felt I got adequate flight time to crush the check ride. And the dpe was a touchdown to boot.

Ha! When is anything internal "easily upgradable"?

Credit Cards / Cash Back & Rewards Options
Read it again. I'm not "earning enough interest to fund a car loan" We both start with the same 15k lump of cash. We both pay zero interest/financing fees. I have interest income (that I'm happy to pay taxes on). You do not. Yes, I'm paying more tax than you .... But I'm paying tax on income that you don't have. I'm still way ahead in the end. It's definitely anti-ramsey. But it's not hard to understand.

Credit Cards / Cash Back & Rewards Options
You pay 15k cash for a vehicle on day zero. I take out a 60 month, 0% loan. I plop that same 15k cash in an interest bearing account and withdraw every month to make my loan payment. In 5 years, we both have a paid in full, used vehicle. I have made money. You have not.

Easy to find in the backyard unaided. Also search for "iridium flares" for really good ones

And if you don't do the correspondence piece? It's only as retarded as you allow it (by playing along) to be.

?s on logging flight time
Most majors will accept your flying time summary from arms. That being said, several folks I know built a granular logbook from those individual sortie lines at the harm office. It is/was a pain in the ass, but let's you break out the pic type data better. Btw-that paper copy at the harm office is the only place data older than 12 months exists. If that joint burns down or someone gets shredder happy it's gone forever. Make copies early and often!

Always enjoyable watching a complete mental breakdown unfold. A+, would read again!

Decline of Baseops.net (aka The Wrath of PYB/Mods gone wild)
It's not obsolete. And the fact that it is being systematically stamped out is part of the problem. We didn't get to be the best there ever was without a few hurt feelings along the way. This is not a corporate environment.

Eagle Driver Proposes to Cardinals Cheerleader
So the whiners win out. Typical. Edit to add: typical for today's Air Force. I expected more here. Mod that deleted content is weak for caving to Sandy vaginas
