CRJ-900: 485ktas / 530gph X 81sob = 74er I think your true might be a bit quick there... 480ktas / 3,980gps X 890sob = 107er

Mine usually takes place while I'm deadheading and there is anything from a total crew incapacitation, rapid decompression, or cabin fire, down to the mundane like a broken coffee maker (not kidding :dunno:). Oddly, these always happen on a Waterski flight...

I couldn't figure out how that kind of fire would happen in those hangars, they're just metal support beams and metal sheeting. That hangar had an added upper-level framed in with a short of office space/lounge. Lots of flammable material right there, and I'm betting some sort of short circuit...

My local 'drome has a CD which is only used for IFR; VFR folks just call ground on initial. As others have said, that's the norm for VFR unless otherwise specified on ATIS (which I haven't ever heard at a D, but have in several Cs).

I'll just leave this right here...

It does amaze me. This example always comes to mind when discussing response times: http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/29/us/plane-crash-mystery/

I dunno, I think I'd have to put an in-flight cabin or cargo fire on top... At least if you're trapped in the wreckage (assuming no post-crash fire, fuel spill, or extreme cold) there's less risk or further injury and you might be able to simply wait until rescuers arrive.

Not that I've heard. I dunno, if there was loss of power I'd expect something to have been said on frequency; But with the sudden and hurried "check altitude" call from ATC, I was thinking a departure stall.

Skyhawk N52265, a rental plane at Air Associates of Missouri, crashed around 8:00 this evening while on departure on the upwind-to-crosswind turn while doing pattern work. After over 2 hours of searching, the pilot, who was trapped in the plane, has been found and brought to the hospital. His...

I think just about everybody has done it. Luckily, most probably don't do it at a towered field on video like myself... (At 14:23)

I suggest you familiarize yourself with FAR 121.547...

@Gucci Pilot Yeah, I asked him what that all meant, and he kinda explained how it is indeed only a limitation on the CL-65 type, but not the whole ATP because that's all they can train/test for, and it's not supposed to limit my entire ATP privileges. I honestly don't really understand or care...

Thanks everybody for the heads-up on that mistake; The examiner is gonna run a new one tomorrow.

@jordane93 I did think that was off, but they said it was good. I'll talk to them tomorrow before my LOFT. @gasfiltered Lol, sorry to disappoint. But alas, the night is young... I'm just glad I was fortunate to avoid that route.

@James331 Not sure I follow? I did have single- and multi-engine on my CPL; Does this new one not simply upgrade the ME portion to ATP?

@jordane93 I was April 25th as well at GoJet, and they were also backed-up. A sim slot opened up at the last minute so I was able to bump up my schedule by almost 4 weeks.

@jordane93, who are you on with?

And all they gave me in return was this flimsy piece of paper. But on the plus side, at least I'll get more than 3 hours of sleep tonight.

Hmm, interesting, haven't heard of that one before. Yeah, GoJet is owned by Trans States.

I already miss it; Always was and still is my favorite airplane. Maybe with this massive new contract at GOJ, I'll be able to buy my own 'Van in a few months, lol...
