    Which Government Agencies hire pilots?

    Trying to figure out what all Government Agencies hire on pilots. (fixed-wing or helicopter) I've googled around but I'm sure there are more out there than the typical ones that pop up. Really appreciate any feedback! Thanks!

    Interesting new Wings Course

    121 Time Logging

    Hey I appreciate the feedback folks. For those of you all hot and bothered over the fact that I'm at a 121 and wanting clarification; sorry about it. Turns out when you get your ATP you don't magically know everything and still appreciate group feedback on various topics from time to time...

    121 Time Logging

    Hey folks, I'm new to the 121 world. I wanted to see if I'm logging things correctly: I've been logging all flights as SIC and Cross Country even if I'm not at the controls. I log instrument time only if in actual IMC while at the controls and approaches while at the controls of course only...

    Rosterbuster and Safelog Logbook Question

    Hey folks! For those of you that use Rosterbuster and Safelog (hopefully there's at least one...) I got a question for ya. In order to make use of Roster busters export to logbook features AND it's export to G-Calendar features, I've been doing the following: 1) Important 30 days worth of...

    ATP Requirements...?

    Yeah I guess question 2 was predicated on if I was wrong about my understanding of question 1 haha. I appreciate the feedback. Thank you!

    ATP Requirements...?

    Hey guys, Call me a dumb dumb but I'm a little confused as to the flow of ratings when it comes to getting an ATP. I'm hoping someone will enlighten me regardless of how much flack I may take haha. I've got a few so I'll number them to keep answers organized the best I can. Don't feel obligated...

    IAS vs Altitude

    Yeah I've never heard heard of that one either (that Vne is a funciton of TAS). I would say I'd be surprised if that was correct... but then again... I'm learning new things every day hahah

    IAS vs Altitude

    You and I are in agreement (except with what you said the Vne is a function of TAS...). I was trying to say that I disagreed with the idea presented by the person I was replying to.

    IAS vs Altitude

    I'm not even sure what we're discussing at this point haha. You had literally just said "What happens to your static pressure as you climb? There is more to it." Now you are going back to saying as you climb the static pressure decreases (true). So ima just leave that one alone I think. Thank...

    IAS vs Altitude

    This is exactly where my mind is at now. It makes sense. It doesn't do a deep dive into unecessary topics. Only thing I think I might disagree on is that a faster True Airspeed somehow maintains a higher level of lift to keep an airplane airborne in thinner air. I'm of the impression that lift...

    IAS vs Altitude

    I think maybe I should have just taken the word "climb" out of my question because you are very focused on that aspect and that wasn't the intent of my question. Perhaps that's where the confusion is coming from. I'm not asking about what's happening in the climb itself. I'm just saying take an...

    IAS vs Altitude

    I would edit the the initial post I could haha. I've apparently caused lots of confusion. Rewording attempt here: Take an airplane flying 100kias at sea level..... Now put that same airplane at 8,000' and same power setting (throttle untouched) ....how is it still flying 100kias? Expectation...

    IAS vs Altitude

    Sorry guys. Didn't mean to cause a disruption by asking the question :( I'll figure it out from here I swear :D

    IAS vs Altitude

    I think you are right. That does seem to be the component I was missing and one that doesn't seem to get brought up much in videos/discussions on this topic. Interseting. I'll definitely give that section a read (should have probably done that first before coming here). I'm not sure why...

    IAS vs Altitude

    Hey folks, Something I've always been a bit hazy about I'm hoping someone can help me clear up: If you change nothing else about the plane, as you climb higher in altitude Indicated Airspeed decreases, right? Because less air molecules get into the pitot tube... So how is that one power...
