That's cool. See if they did all demolitions like Vegas, they could make money off concession stands and make a whole event out of it.

Eman, I could be wrong but I don't think guys are ever whistled at...especially in a speedo. Put this guy in a speedo and that about sums up our reactions! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcuwBW3t-ow

It is not my job to control you or any other man. If you cannot prevent yourself from doing fat chicks, looking at porn, or getting a boner every time you visit a beach, that's your own problem. I'm working hard enough at being and becoming a respectable corporate pilot! Women had to fight for...

Lol we asked that and he said it depends on each product and even the customer won't always say what exactly they're looking for. I know they do different runs at 10,000, 30,000 and 50,000 taking pictures, temps, and probably other things like wind readings. Other than that, it seemed like a...

I'm friends with the flight engineer. I took him on a sight seeing flight in the 172 around town and introduced him to some of the guys at Crete today. I crawled inside when we got back. Nothing fancy as far as avionics. They're here for more high altitude testing. Mainly what they do is gather...

I might take a friend up for a quick discovery flight but other than that, nothing to do. I'm actually supposed to be on a king air flight to Colorado but was booted from that last minute. So it goes!

I can impress me (a lady jet pilot) all by myself thank you! ;)

These guys all hit the nail on the head. Probably because we have all been through one too many! My two cents to add that I didn't see mentioned is talking with people that have done the checkride with that examiner. We used to ask our students if they would write a short little summery on their...

Hope you had fun! I'm assuming it did. I used to have my students call me/leave a message when they landed just in case I was busy with another student. "Want to make sure my plane is still in one piece...oh and you're ok too." ;) You're on the downhill side of you're training. This is the...

And this is why every good woman pilot brings an industrial strength hair dryer along. You thought it was just to make us look pretty. ;)

Unfortunately I don't have the means to rent a plane or the time to drive down and back but I do miss everyone!

You're not the first to get that oddly stated question. The answer depends on your plane but typically consists of one or all of the following; heated pitot tube, heated stall warning tab, carb heat, and windshield defrost (which I think is a stretch). Typical cessnas and Cherokees are not...

Yep I do! His name is Bill Heckathorn. James or Stacey are fantastic too. Based in Lincoln, NE. Bill is my previous boss and specializes in selling the newer models cessnas. I think him and his team know more than anyone else I know about those aircraft. They're constantly scrolling through...

Haha! They'd have a heart attack if I tried taking it to gastons! The other pilots and I talk about how neat it would be to try a grass landing/ takeoff with it. A lot of Nebraskas airports have one as a second runway. Not sure how I feel about the trees on the end at gastons though.

As stated, it depends on your request and how busy the controllers are. If you're requesting FF, many just say it all as one. If you have a special request that takes a while to explain or a question. Then I'll say, "Cessna XXX with a request or question." Sometimes even if you're requesting FF...

I'm not sure how the PC12 is set up but if you have flaps up and a high enough power setting, you'd probably not get the horn. This is possible in the king air.

Good luck! Don't feel bad, there aren't many that can foot the bill on a king air. I don't know the price exactly but I've heard $800/hr rental is a good guess. I did pay for the examiner though.

(For friends on facebook, ignore double post) I was asked a few months ago if I had thought about getting my ATP. I knew the rule was changing so I had planned on getting the written done. My company really wanted all who was capable of getting it to go ahead and at least get the written done...

A few to say light bulbs are better installed while standing on your head or on a treadmill.

I'm a charter pilot for silverhawk. JuLee and the other girls at the front desk will take care of you. The courtesy cars are in good condition or they can set you up easily with a rental considering you'll be visiting for longer than an hour or two. A few good things to know. Lincoln Approach...
