    Possible Pilot Deviation

    98% of the attorneys make the other 2% look bad. :rolleyes: In the case of the OP IMO is a case of overkill, but hey, make the call and throw the money away, or better yet hope Joe Ace, Esq. "Aviation Attorney" doesn't turn what would have been one phone call and over into a larger event...

    Possible Pilot Deviation

    Of course an attorney is going to tell you to seek out an attorney, it's business. In my time on the other side of the fence I can tell you that some of the times the "aviation attorneys" got involved they only made the situation worse. Not all attorneys are created equal, and not all...

    Hawaii Helicopter Crash

    Depends upon the wind. If he had a slight tailwind and was moving forward at the same speed, high torque, heavy, he would induce settling.

    where to go for Type Rating ?

    Actually it's happening. I have 2 friends, one military (air force, fighter pilot type) and another high time 121, 5 types (transport), international, high PIC, 15,000 hours, etc. Both went to SWA for an interview, and both were turned down. I also know a young man low time, no types...

    where to go for Type Rating ?

    I don't know how up to date this list is but it gives you an idea of cost. Interesting that someone can buy a type in a transport jet cheaper than a business jet, but it does have a lot to do with supply and demand. And for the first time jet type remember that it comes with an SOE...

    James, I was flying professionally before you were born. And guess what? This was going on then and it will continue after both of us are gone. If you like your job, so be it. What this guy does with his career is his life and his business. Your argument that he is somehow hurting...

    where to go for Type Rating ?

    I know what they pay you guys, and frankly it's not anything to write home about. Again, I could use the same argument that you are lowering the bar for other professional pilots by agreeing to work for what you work for. Bottom line: if you like what you do, fine. When it comes to...

    One could also reason that flying Part 135 Air ambulance in a PC 12 for the wages you are willing to work for brings the bar down for others.
