    University of Oklahoma Aviation?

    I've heard this same idea a lot. I'm going with the aviation degree because of two reasons: A) There are plenty of non-flying jobs that an "Aerospace Administration and Operations" degree would work for B) I don't want to spend 4 years studying something I have no interest in or intention of...

    University of Oklahoma Aviation?

    I'm so happy you replied with this because as a matter of fact just since I made this post I started considering Oklahoma State again and am now pretty sure that I will go there. I have also heard great things about their program and I got a fantastic feeling visiting there - felt much more...

    University of Oklahoma Aviation?

    R-ATP requires 60 credit hours of aviation coursework, which usually means it has to be a major.

    University of Oklahoma Aviation?

    It can't be a minor, but double-majoring is certainly a possibility and something I'm considering. Even if it could be a minor, I would prefer to major so I can get 60 credit hours and thus the restricted-ATP.

    Got first doze of Pfizer today

    Very worried about the ensuing effects of this stoppage of JnJ shots. Conspiracy theories and "the vaccines are deadly and untested" nonsense already running wild on social media and it's only been a few hours. I know some were only willing to get JnJ already because they either didn't want two...

    University of Oklahoma Aviation?

    Hi all- I know collegiate aviation isn't a topic that is discussed often on here, but I was accepted to the University of Oklahoma's Aviation degree program starting this fall and am trying to decide if I will go there or go elsewhere for a different degree and fly part 61 on the side (my goal...

    Got first doze of Pfizer today

    Fully vaccinated since late February. Pfizer. Minimal side effects after first dose, pretty strong arm pain after second dose. Neither dose kept me from going about my day but I could barely lift my arm much at all for 24 hours after dose 2. Also got an antibody test 2 weeks ago, and very...

    Handheld transceiver recommendations? Icom, Yaesu, or Sporty's?

    General question for all of you, are any of these radios loud enough to use in a, say, C172 cockpit in flight without connecting to a headset in an emergency?

    Handheld transceiver recommendations? Icom, Yaesu, or Sporty's?

    I ordered a Yaesu FT-550AA. Sounds like I made a good choice. Thank you all.

    Handheld transceiver recommendations? Icom, Yaesu, or Sporty's?

    Looking at getting a new handheld transceiver. I'm trying to decide if I should go for the Icom A-16, Yaesu FTA-550, or Sporty's PJ2. Anyone have any experience with any of these? Thanks.

    I know (via @bbchien) that MKC there in your town has an LED gun.

    Passed Color Vision OCVT and MFT for 1st Class Medical

    1) Yep. They typically will be able to look and know. If they don't know, just ask them if it looks new or old! 2) I went on Google Maps and measured a distance of 1500 feet from the tower that I could park at, then stood outside my car and did it. The test is not done from inside the aircraft...

    Late night flights

    Yes, you could have called center. They have top down control on TRACONs that are closed.

    Passed Color Vision OCVT and MFT for 1st Class Medical

    Here is my writeup of the OCVT and MFT, both of which I completed in the past month. I am trying to give as much information as I can, so it will be quite lengthy. For those of you who do not know, pilots who cannot pass the standard Ishihara plates (book with dots that you read numbers...
