    Gardening Questions

    Sometimes I think POA needs a like button. The scromatoes made me laugh! I decided to try my hand at gardening this year. I picked my first red tomato the other day and my banana peppers are coming in nicely. I'm so happy I didn't kill my plants! Having a fair amount of rain sucks with...

    Poll: how long before carrying passengers?

    My checkride was over at 11pm so no time that day. I took my mom up soon after though for a ride down the beach. It was short though, weather was moving in.

    Free Stuff

    Unit74, I think they might enjoy this a little more. http://www.sportys.com/PilotShop/product/9377 It's free except for shipping. Someone gave me one when I was interested in learning to fly. I loved the poster and the logbook made me feel like a pilot already.

    Free Stuff

    I think pilots would use them quicker than goodwill. Plus, small things are not worth itemizing.

    Free Stuff

    I wanted to see if anyone needed any of these things before they get tossed. King ATP written exam prep (121, 135, Aircraft Dispatcher). This comes as two books and an unopened CD ROM review. I was given this about 3 years ago but decided to use a different program and just passed my ATP...

    Skydive Pilot Bails at KFES (Festus, MO)

    Yea we have to wear one. It's mainly thought just in case something gets wrapped around the tail which would only happen in a malfunction or someone doing something really stupid. I don't like thinking about having to jump out of the plane though. As a pilot, you're trained to fly it to the...

    Obesity has become a global issue

    I think a lot of college graduates can attest to that too.

    Obesity has become a global issue

    I do agree with cheap food is usually not the greatest but it's cheap considering you can make a whole pot of spaghetti (no meat) or Mac n cheese and hot dogs for $2.

    Flying as a girl/biography

    I like watching the MX guys but I don't think I have enough interest to want to do that myself. Next steps? Well as of right now, my best outlook is staying here until they make me a captain on the mustang but that is a long ways off. Either that or a better opportunity comes along.

    How did you get hired?

    I thought mainly aviation but really it doesnt have to be. I was also thinking most recent but once again thats why its good to give feedback.

    How did you get hired?

    I always heard that about the only way you'll get hired with a company is through a friend or some other connection. I wanted to see how true it was from both an employee and an employer's standpoint. Please feel free to post your opinions and suggestions so everyone can see...especially those...

    Flying as a girl/biography

    Wanted to see what you guys thought of this story. It's a bit long winded but do you think it's pretty good, same story but different person or should I add/delete some things? A friend once told me, “If you find a job you love doing, you will never have to work a day in your life.” That...

    North American P-51 Mustang..... What A Day!

    It's out and about again! Glad you got such a great opportunity. The sounds of airplanes are great but there's nothing in Lincoln that sounds better than that P-51. I think he owns a hyperbipe, a helicopter and numerous other airplanes.

    Air sick, Sea sick, Car sick,, a solution

    I've tried sea bands, ginger, motioneze, the shocking $100 wrist band...none of it works. I now fly a jet. You know what works? Altitude and air conditioning.
