    Daylight Time vs. Standard Time

    Then you still have the same amount of daylight after school/work as we do right now.

    Daylight Time vs. Standard Time

    Leave it as is. They tried staying on DST in the early 70s. Everyone thought it was a great idea until that winter when kids were going to school in the dark, then the popularity plunged. They reversed their decision the following year. Learn from the past. Or, just keep making the same...

    Heading or Radial after VOR?

    Just ask. If you aren’t sure about a clearance ask them.

    Columbia 400 nose wheel shimmy

    No problem. Hard to reflect tone in written words. Guess that’s what the emojis are for!

    New procedure (or deleted procedure) at CBP when re-entering?

    The one thing I’ve found consistent about CBP in the different cities I hav always entered through, is that they all seem to have different rules. Wish they’d all get on the same page.

    It was close, but not that close.

    Half Windsor. Had a small coffee stain on it.

    Cruising altitude conflicts and barometer settings

    Years ago while instructing in a Warrior, had my attention inside while explaining something to a student. Happened to look ahead just as a Baron passed perpendicular to our path right in front of us. Scared the crap out of us. The thing that stands out in my mind the most is that the Baron...

    Ramp agent reprimanded for reporting MX issue

    We had a pilot that noticed a latch was open on a panel. Simply closed the latch. FAA got involved because we are not “trained” as a pilot to close these latches. It’s a maintenance function. Can’t remember just how far the FAA took it but they were not happy, he may have been fined. Point...

    Yeah, not sure how many they made but it wasn’t many.

    Airplanes with friggin’ lasers

    How about we modify it to “return fire” to the idiots on the ground that like to lase us inflight?

    Single pilot airline flights

    I seriously doubt that. The replies from Sluggo, Larry, and Shuckers are all accurate.

    Career Dilemma

    I’m all civilian background but I tend to agree with Sluggo. Wish I had known more about the Guard route back when I was starting out. (Not that I’m complaining, my route has turned out great but definitely check in to the ANG.)

    Delta drops degree requirement for pilots ...

    Probably easier to just go ahead and get the degree when you’re young rather than later. Kids, bills, life in general make it hard for people to go back. Can’t count the number of people I was around in college who were going to take a semester or year “break”. Never saw them again.

    Pork. I see now you were doing beef. Disregard.
