    Newbie to aviation- best track to corporate pilot?

    I got my CMEL add-on a month ago. I have 700TT and have been told I need 1000TT to be marketable. So I've been pestering every pilot I know for time-building opportunities. I've managed to pick up 40 hrs (18 multi) in the last 30 days. Set up camp at the airport and talk to everyone.

    Traveling With Dogs

    Once the Uber driver is chosen, I text them to let them know I have a dog and if that's ok. Only once has driver asked us to put him on a blanket and ironically she had the nastiest car we've ridden in!

    Thoughts on a Cherokee 140 as a learner & 1st plane

    I bought my '71 140/160 (Sn 28-7125009) in April 2015. At the time, I had been taking lessons for 3 weeks and had 8 hrs in a 172. 650 hrs later, she has gotten me through PPL, Instrument, and CPL. I'm working on CFI now. I have used it for business travel from MS all over the southern US from SC...

    Question about VMC Roll

    Sorry. The Duke in Fullerton. It kinda led to the start of this thread

    Question about VMC Roll

    Yes the idea is to lower the nose and reduce power on the good engine until you regain control. But not much you can do 2-3 seconds after liftoff. I'm doing my CMEL add-on next week I'm hoping my wife doesn't see this video

    When is the best season for learning to fly?

    March-May in MS. When you learn in 10-15kt winds, dodging thunderstorms you can handle anything later. It was great for learning Wx planning. My solo featured a 12kt wind 80 degrees off the nose.

    Overwhelmed CFI Candidate/student

    I am doing the same. I read the PHAK, AFH, PTS/ACS's 3 times already with PPL/Inst/CPL. so I read the AIH (boring psycho babble), and now I'm working the ASA test prep for the writtens. After that I will work on the serious stuff with my CFI. Hopefully be thru by end of summer
