I really like this idea and I was looking into this. I am 18 years old and I have started investing into a roth IRA. I understand that these are appreciating assets that I will have access to in 42 years but what other ways can I build a portfolio? Real estate? Gold & Bonds? Mutual fund...

Hello all, As an up and coming career pilot, I am intrigued by the financial aspect of being an aviator for hire. I was never in it for the money, and as a DPE friend of mine said “I fly to get 1000’ between my rear and the runway every day, nothing else”. With the time passing and the day...

That makes sense now that you mention it. There was a student and a MEI in the front, and another instructor in the back. It appears as if they were doing maneuvers. Stall spin could be likely, but I don’t suspect it. The instructor in the right seat had 13,000+ hours in everything from gliders...

That’s what I suspect. Turbulence caused some sort of aerial deconstruction of the plane causing them to burn in. I just want to understand what happened to my friends.

Airliners on approach procedures into Bradley were submitting reports of clouds under 4000’ with snow and mixed precip.

It was VFR into IMC, airliners were reporting bases at 4000’. Occupants were two senior flight instructors with lots of experience, and a student. They should’ve been able to handle the IMC, which is what I don’t understand. The plane was very well maintained and did not fly often for a flight...

Any information would be appreciated. Right now I’ve gathered Live ATC, Flight Aware, ADSB, and I confirmed the occupants. -Logan

Hello, A Beechcraft Baron went down today in Greenfield Massachusetts at about 11:25am (1625z), tail number N7345R. The occupants of the plane were family friends. If anyone has any information regarding the crash please let me know. Respectfully, -Logan

I would prefer the navy, but branch isn’t important to me. I just want to serve or fly. Heavy aircraft and helos are fine, I’ve just grown up on the 104th guard base and fallen in love with the F-15. Basically College ROTC and OCS is my plan as of right now, but I really don’t know much of at...

Hello all, I am a 17 year old private pilot who recently passed my checkride. At the conclusion of my senior year, I plan to go to a part-141 college program and get my R-ATP. While doing that, I will enroll into the ROTC program, so I can join up after college and become a fighter pilot. What...

I understand, I just mean as seniority builds and time goes on hopefully I will be able to have a little bit more flexibility in my schedule. Plus, Im not invested and going after flying for the money, the schedule, perks, etc etc. I am invested and becoming a professional pilot because I am the...

Yeah….. no thanks.

I agree that the degree is not the best, nor is the condition of the training, but I am willing to compromise on that if it means I get into the more “exclusive” legacy programs. These colleges have direct links with the airlines and filter kids through direct to legacy carriers. A lot of the...

I have a first class medical so I am all set on that. What do you mean by challenging flights to build experience? Ops into bravo airspace or SFRA’s? My goal is just to build experience, log 50 hours xc time for IFR, and tailwheel/complex/high performance. Right now I fly at KBAF, which is Delta...

I would be disqualified from R-ATP at a collegiate Part-141 program if I did any of the following: -Instrument Written or Practical Test -Commercial Written or Practical Test The other issue is that they would make me restart my training towards any given rating. Meaning if I started my...

Hello Everyone, I am 17, and a new private pilot as of yesterday! I am hoping to do R-ATP at a Part-141 college program after the completion of my senior year. In the meantime, I would like to be productive, and pursue further ratings that wouldn’t disqualify me from the R-ATP. I have come up...
