    The truth about Danny Smith aka dannytheaviator

    I did some research because this Danny Smith sounded too good to be true. Turns out he didn’t always go by the name of Danny Smith. He changed it a few years back. His given name was Bill Brasky and his stories are legendary.

    Raptor Aircraft

    I’ve only done three engine takeoffs in the sim, but even with an outboard engine caged it was a nonevent if you were smooth about it. Number 3 feathered is best case for Vmca/Vmcg. The stretched version 130 in this video has even lower Vmca numbers than the regular short version Herk.

    Need help for a career PLZ

    The Channel Islands unit of the California Air Guard has a aerial fire fighting as one of their missions. If you’re young enough and qualify that would be a good option to get the training and experience early on. I’d wager the commercial operators would find that experience valuable if you...
